Oskar Pietuszewski Scores Record Goal for Porto and Piast Triumphs in Krakow

Young Polish talent, Oskar Pietuszewski, has written his name into Portuguese football history. During FC Porto's match against Arouca, the Polish striker scored a goal just 13 seconds after coming onto the pitch as a substitute. This is the fastest goal ever scored by a debutant for the multiple-time champions of Portugal. The feat sparked a wave of enthusiasm on social media and among experts, who highlight the 17-year-old's extraordinary scoring instinct. Pietuszewski celebrated the goal in a subdued manner, performing a touching gesture dedicated to his teammate's late mother, which was met with huge appreciation from the fans. FC Porto is one of the most decorated clubs in Europe, regularly playing in the Champions League, known for excellent scouting and promoting young talent. The evening match in the Polish Ekstraklasa was equally thrilling. Cracovia hosted Piast Gliwice at their home stadium in a match filled with tension from the first minute. The home fans, besides following the on-pitch events, demonstrated their stance in the ongoing conflict between the club's shareholders. The match started with the pitch being obscured by pyrotechnics, forcing a brief pause in play. Although the 'Stripes' took the lead twice, there was an unexpected twist late in the game. The Piast coach made crucial substitutions that changed the course of the contest. „I don't understand what happened after half-time... My team lost control of a match that seemed to be under our command.” — Luka Elsner In the final minutes of the match, Piast Gliwice delivered decisive blows. A goal scored in the 91st minute by one of the substitutes sealed a 3:2 victory for the visitors. This result means significant changes in the league table, giving the team from Gliwice a valuable move up the standings. Sports media highlight the 'instinct' of Piast's coach, Daniel Myśliwiec, whose personnel decisions in the second half yielded tangible results in the form of three points taken from difficult territory in Krakow. Meanwhile, Cracovia fans did not hide their disappointment with their players' performance, who, despite having the advantage, could not secure a favorable result until the final whistle. Piast Gliwice is the Polish champion from 2019, known in recent seasons for solid defensive play and the ability to effectively compete with league favorites. In the shadow of these events, other matches on European arenas remained. The team of Matty Cash suffered a defeat in the English league, described as a humiliation considering the opponent's potential. On the pitch in Italy, one of the Poles scored a beautiful goal, but his strike was not enough for victory in Serie A. The entirety of Friday's reports paints a picture of a dynamic day in Polish and world football, where individual records intertwine with dramatic team outcomes.
