"The opponents played differently than we're usually used to. We usually face teams that stay in their own half and look for long passes. It was a tough match, but fortunately we scored two goals and can celebrate the victory."

The result maintains Lech Pozna?’s momentum as they prepare for a crucial showdown on December 11, when they travel to Germany to face Mainz in a fixture that could determine their progression to the next stage of the competition.
