Zagłębie Lubin II vs Odra Bytom Odrzański

The match, played on 15 July 2026 at Zagłębie's training ground on ul. Skłodowskiej-Curie Marii in Lubin, was a tight, tactical affair typical of a pre-season friendly between two sides from the same league tier.

Goalless at the break, the game appeared to be heading for a stalemate until the 86th minute, when K. Koppenhagen capitalised on an assist from Berkowski to slot home the decisive goal. The provider payload records the strike as a normal goal with no extra time added, meaning it arrived with just four minutes of regular time remaining.

No cards were issued during the match, and neither side made any substitutions recorded in the official events — a sign that both managers may have used the fixture primarily for fitness minutes rather than tactical experimentation.

The goal came from open play in the 86th minute, too late for Zagłębie Lubin II to mount a response. With limited time left on the clock, the home side could not find an equaliser, and Odra Bytom Odrzański saw out the final minutes to secure the win.

• K. Koppenhagen (Odra Bytom Odrzański) — Scored the only goal of the match, a well-taken finish in the 86th minute. The Odra striker was in the right place at the right time to break the deadlock.
• Berkowski (Odra Bytom Odrzański) — Provided the assist for the winning goal, demonstrating good vision in the build-up play.

Player of the Match: K. Koppenhagen (Odra Bytom Odrzański)

The provider data records a single goal and zero cards across the 90 minutes. The goalless first half suggests both sides prioritised defensive organisation and fitness over attacking risk in the opening period, with the game opening up only in the final stages. Zagłębie Lubin II's failure to register a goal reflects a pre-season outfit still building sharpness under manager Arkadiusz Radomski.

This was the fourth of six scheduled pre-season friendlies for Zagłębie Lubin II under manager Arkadiusz Radomski. The reserve side of KGHM Zagłębie Lubin, who finished 5th in Betclic 3. Liga Group 3 in 2025/26, have one win (Ślęza Wrocław, 4 July), one draw (KKS Kalisz, 8 July), and now this defeat in their pre-season campaign so far. They face Lech II Poznań on 18 July and FK Pardubice on 25 July before opening the 2026/27 league season against Sparta Katowice in the first weekend of August.

Odra Bytom Odrzański — officially ODRA Skrzynie ZAJĄC Bytom Odrzański — also compete in Betclic 3. Liga Group 3, meaning this friendly may have served as both a fitness exercise and a chance to scout a league rival. Both sides will face each other again in league action during the 2026/27 season.

A tight, competitive pre-season friendly decided by a single late goal, fitting for two sides from the same league level. Odra Bytom Odrzański will take confidence from the win, while Zagłębie Lubin II will look to sharpen their attacking edge in the remaining friendlies before the season opener.
