The Polish Football Association (PZPN) officially awarded a 3:0 walkover to Śląsk Wrocław for the unplayed match against Wisła Kraków. The decision was announced on March 13, 2026, following the failure of the Kraków-based club to travel to Wrocław for the scheduled fixture. Wisła Kraków, popularly known as the White Star, did not appear at the stadium, leading to the intervention of the PZPN Competition Committee. This ruling effectively grants three points to Śląsk Wrocław without the game being played on the pitch. The disciplinary measures follow a period of uncertainty regarding the status of the match.

Furthermore, the association has banned 1,250 fans from attending the next three away matches involving their team. The PZPN emphasized that the measures were necessary to maintain order and security within the league. „Musimy zadbać o bezpieczeństwo na stadionach” (We must ensure safety in stadiums) — PZPN spokesperson via rmf24.pl
