Radomiak Radom kicked off their 2026‑27 PKO Bank Polski Ekstraklasa campaign with a hard‑fought 2–1 home victory over KS Wieczysta Krakow. The match, played on July 25, 2026, at the Stadion im. Braci Czachorów, saw the home side show resilience after being pegged back early in the second half.

Match Summary

Radomiak dominated the opening period and deservedly took a first‑half lead through a well‑taken goal. Wieczysta, newly promoted to the top flight, responded strongly after the break and equalised within minutes of the restart. However, Radomiak regained their composure and snatched the winner with just over twenty minutes remaining, securing three valuable points on opening day.

Key Moments

• 32’ – Radomiak go ahead: A precise through‑ball split the Wieczysta defence. The striker rounded the onrushing goalkeeper and calmly slotted into the empty net.
• 51’ – Wieczysta equalise: A defensive mix‑up allowed the visitors’ forward to latch onto a loose ball inside the box. He finished with a low driven shot past the Radomiak keeper.
• 67’ – Radomiak decisive goal: A corner kick was only half‑cleared. The ball fell to a midfielder on the edge of the area, who struck a powerful volley that deflected past the helpless Wieczysta goalkeeper.

Tactical Story

Radomiak started with a high pressing game, forcing Wieczysta into errors. Their first goal came from exactly such a turnover. But after the equaliser, the home side appeared nervous, and Wieczysta grew in confidence. The winning goal came from a set‑piece situation, highlighting Radomiak’s threat from dead‑ball situations. Wieczysta, despite their spirited performance, lacked the cutting edge needed to claim a point on their top‑flight return.

Standout Players

• Radomiak’s No. 10 (attacking midfielder): He was at the heart of most of his side’s best moves, providing the assist for the first goal and scoring the winner with a brilliant volley.
• Wieczysta’s left‑back: Despite the loss, he put in a tireless shift, making several overlapping runs and delivering dangerous crosses.

League Impact

Radomiak start the season with a crucial three points, setting a positive tone for the weeks ahead. Wieczysta, meanwhile, will take heart from their performance but must learn to defend set‑pieces better. The Ekstraklasa season is long, but early points can be decisive in the fight for European places or survival.
