This will be a disaster for Polish clubs in Europe! “It will end with the first rival”
Everything will be clear on Saturday. We will get to know the final results in the Ekstraklasa and find out who will become the Polish champion. However, we already know all the cup winners. According to Sławomir Chałapkiewicz – former Widzew Łódź striker – their form this year is not a harbinger of Polish successes in Europe. “We may experience great disappointment,” he said. Lech Poznań was also hit.
Jagiellonia Białystok or Śląsk Wrocław will be the Polish champions, and one of these teams will represent Poland in the Champions League. The runner-up will have to settle for playing in the Europa Conference League . Just like Legia Warszawa, who is sure of third place in the table . The three top league players in European cups will be joined by first-league Wisła Kraków, which will play in the Europa League thanks to winning the Polish Cup.
What awaits Polish clubs in Europe? Chałaskiewicz full of fears
Of this group, only Legia Warszawa played in European cups last season. It is therefore not surprising that some experts fear that Poland will miss the next season. Sławomir Chałapkiewicz also belongs to this group. The former Widzew player does not hide his doubts in an interview with TVP Sport .
– Currently, we do not have a team that would guarantee advancement to the group stage. I am afraid that we may experience great disappointment and our teams will end their participation in the qualifiers at the first opponent they will face, he said.
At the same time, he assessed that Jagiellonia and Legia Warszawa currently have the best chance of advancing to the group stage. – It seems to me that Jaga may follow suit, although I won’t say that I’m 100% convinced about it. Perhaps Legia will cope… Today, however, it is difficult to predict anything, because there are going to be big changes in Warsaw – he admitted.
Lech razed to the ground. “A motley crew of players.” Who will become the Polish champion?
Chałąskiewicz does not bite his tongue when assessing Lech Poznań’s season. The team from Greater Poland not only withdrew from the Polish championship game at their own request, but also wasted the chance to play in European cups. – The choice of Mariusz Rumak as coach was wrong. When I looked at Kolejorz for a long time, I had the impression that they were a collection of players who just wanted to finish the season. Lech’s players lacked determination, it was clear that something was wrong within this group. If anyone has disappointed the most in recent months, it is the team from Poznań. Lech did not take advantage of the fact that Raków and Legia played in the group stage of European cups – noted the former Widzew player.
Chałapkiewicz points to Jagiellonia as the biggest winner of the current season . In his opinion, she will win the Polish championship. – The team from Białystok looks the best. If anyone can say positive words this season, it is Adrian Siemieniec’s players. Jagiellonia deserved to win the championship with its play throughout the season. I think that on Saturday I will seal this great success – he concluded.
The last round of the Ekstraklasa, played in the multi-league formula – all teams play at the same time – will start on Saturday, May 25 at 5:30 p.m. We encourage you to follow this exciting finish of the season on the Sport.pl website and in the Sport.pl LIVE mobile application.
Will at least one Polish team play in the league phase of the 2024/25 European cups?
