Jagiellonia vs Łomża

A foul inside the Łomża penalty area gave referee Daniel Niemyjski no choice but to point to the spot. Captain Cezary Polak — playing at left-back — stepped up and calmly sent the goalkeeper the wrong way, securing the 1-0 win with five minutes remaining.

It was a deserved reward for Jagiellonia's dominance. Łomża, playing in black, failed to register a meaningful shot on target across the 90 minutes, with goalkeeper Michał Perchel enjoying a largely untroubled afternoon.

Cezary Polak (Jagiellonia) — The captain led by example, marshalling the defence from left-back and scoring the decisive penalty with composure. Named player of the match.

Rodrigo Conceição (Jagiellonia) — Deployed higher up the pitch than his natural right-back role, the Portuguese winger was Jagiellonia's most dangerous attacking threat in the first half, forcing two saves from Danielczyk.

Michał Perchel (Jagiellonia) — A spectator for most of the match but commanded his area well when called upon, finishing with a clean sheet in his first pre-season outing.

Bartosz Kriegler (Łomża) — The new signing from Świt Szczecin was solid in the centre of Łomża's defence, keeping the scoreline respectable until the late penalty.

The provider data shows a 1-0 scoreline (HT 0-0) with a single goal in the 85th minute. The sparse stat line reflects the nature of a pre-season friendly between an Ekstraklasa side and a III liga opponent: Jagiellonia dominated territory and chances but found a well-organised lower-league defence difficult to break down in open play. The single yellow card — for Łomża's Łukasz Kijek — underlines a clean, competitive fixture with no edge beyond the normal pre-season intensity.

This was Jagiellonia's final pre-season hit-out before the competitive calendar intensifies. They had already opened their Ekstraklasa campaign with a 1-0 win over Korona Kielce on 25 July. Next up is a trip to Motor Lublin in round two of the league, followed by a blockbuster UEFA Europa League third qualifying round tie against Rangers FC on 6 August — the first European match of the season for the Podlasie club.

For ŁKS Łomża, the fixture was valuable preparation ahead of their 2026/27 III liga season, which begins shortly after this friendly. The third-tier side gave a creditable account of themselves, staying organised for 85 minutes before succumbing to a spot-kick.

A routine pre-season exercise for Jagiellonia, whose second-string side controlled the match without ever needing to shift through the gears. The 1-0 scoreline flatters Łomża more than it reflects the balance of play, but the friendly served its purpose: minutes for squad players, a clean sheet, and a captain's penalty to maintain winning momentum ahead of a defining week that includes Motor Lublin and Rangers.
