Legia Warszawa finally managed to break the bad streak, which had lasted since September 28, 2025. Saturday's match at Łazienkowska Street was crucial for the bottom of the Ekstraklasa table. After a series of defeats and draws that pushed the Warsaw club into the relegation zone, the 2:1 victory over Wisła Płock allowed the team advance to 15th place. This success is particularly significant for coach Marek Papszun, for whom this was his fourth match as Legia's coach and his first victory. The match was full of emotions, although fans had to wait until the second half for the first goal. The score was opened by Rafał Adamski, making his debut for Legia, capitalizing on a mistake by Wisła's goalkeeper. Although the visitors managed to equalize after a goal by Łukasz Nowak, the decisive blow was delivered by Kacper Chodyna, who came on as a substitute.
