Górnik Łęczna vs Hetman Zamosc

The opening 45 minutes produced no goals but plenty of competitive edge. Górnik, preparing for the 2026/27 Betclic II Liga season, fielded a strong starting XI including veteran goalkeeper Adam Matysek — back between the sticks after a spell as a TV pundit during the World Cup. The 41-year-old kept a clean sheet through the first half before being replaced at the break by Kuba Wilk.

Hetman, newly promoted to Betclic III Liga (group IV), started with three trialists in their XI and grew into the game after a cautious opening. The visitors carried more threat after the interval, and their persistence paid off in the 69th minute. Eze slipped a pass through to Posielski, who finished past Wilk to give Hetman a deserved lead.

Górnik pushed for an equaliser in the final 20 minutes. Manager Pawel Rybakovic introduced Dawid Tkacz for Adam Deja (80') and later Bekzod Ahmedov for Hubert Antkowiak (84'), but Hetman's backline held firm to secure the win.

Hetman's mass half-time changes — six substitutions at the break — gave them fresh legs and a different shape. Posielski, Eze and Patryk Waliś all entered the fray, and the tactical refresh tipped the balance of play decisively in the visitors' favour. Górnik struggled to match Hetman's intensity after the restart, and the goal came from sustained second-half pressure rather than a single moment of fortune.

Kamil Posielski (Hetman Zamość) — The match-winner. His 69th-minute finish was clinical, and he caused problems drifting into the channels after coming on at half-time. Man of the match.

Adam Matysek (Górnik Łęczna) — The veteran goalkeeper, who returned from retirement, kept Hetman at bay in the first half with composed handling and commanded his area well. Górnik conceded almost immediately after his departure.

Paweł Szatała (Hetman Zamość) — Signed the day before the match, the experienced midfielder played the second half on his return to the club where he came through the academy. His presence helped Hetman control the midfield zone.

Daniel Eze (Hetman Zamość) — The assist provider. His through-ball for Posielski's goal was the match's most incisive pass.

The match was a tight, low-event friendly typical of early pre-season. The 0–0 half-time scoreline reflected a balanced opening period in which neither side created clear-cut chances. The sole goal came from a quick combination between Eze and Posielski — a move that suggested Hetman's sharper timing in the final third. Górnik's changes disrupted their rhythm; the home side failed to register a shot on target after falling behind, according to available match data. With no cards issued, the contest was clean but competitive.

For Hetman Zamość, this is a statement result against a side two divisions above them. As a newly promoted team in Betclic III Liga, the win — and the clean sheet — will build confidence. They face Janowianka Janów Lubelski on 11 July in their next friendly.

For Górnik Łęczna, the loss is a pre-season setback. The club — relegated from Betclic I Liga last season — is rebuilding under new ownership links with Motor Lublin. They face Chełmianka Chełm on 11 July in their next warm-up fixture.

A routine pre-season upset that tells you more about Hetman's encouraging start to preparations than Górnik's deeper problems. The third-tier side were sharper, more organised and deserved the win. Górnik's pre-season has work to do before the II Liga campaign begins.
