KS Kutno rounded off their pre-season preparations with a convincing 3–1 victory over Pelikan Łowicz on Saturday, in the second of two friendlies played by the hosts at the GKS Olimpia Chąśno ground. Maksymilian Roźniatowski scored Pelikan's consolation goal, but Kutno's three strikes proved the difference in a game that served as both sides' final competitive tune-up before their respective league campaigns.
How it unfolded
Pelikan Łowicz came into the match having already played — and won — earlier in the day, beating Mszczonowianka Mszczonów 1–0 thanks to a Kamil Niewiadomski goal. That meant head coach Piotr Kocęba rotated his squad for the 12:00 kick-off against Kutno, fielding a second XI to give minutes to the wider squad.
Kutno started sharper and built a multi-goal lead before Roźniatowski pulled one back for Pelikan. The forward converted an offensive move to score, as reported by local outlet lowiczanin.info, but the hosts could not find a second. Kutno added a third to seal the 3–1 win.
The turning point
With Pelikan having split their squad across two friendlies on the same day, the lack of continuity in the second match against Kutno made it difficult for the home side to build rhythm. Once Kutno established a two-goal cushion, Pelikan's response through Roźniatowski came too late to shift the momentum.
Key performers
- Maksymilian Roźniatowski (Pelikan Łowicz) — scored the lone goal for the hosts, showing composure in the box.
- Kutno's attack — clinical enough to put three past a Pelikan side that had kept a clean sheet earlier in the day.
What it means
Pelikan Łowicz conclude their pre-season programme with a mixed record. They open their Betclic III Liga season at home against ŁKS Łomża on Saturday, 1 August 2026 at 18:00 local time. For KS Kutno, the win provides a positive send-off before their own league start in the IV liga łódzka.
Verdict
A routine pre-season win for Kutno, who looked sharper from the outset. Pelikan will be grateful for the workout but will want more cohesion ahead of their league opener.
