Orange Ekstraklasa Week 29

Action, action and more action in this second last week of the Ekstraklasa season!The big surprise was GKS Belchatow losing their two point lead after a dramatic 2-1 loss to spoilers Wisla Krakow.Wisla had taken a 2-0 lead in the first half with Blehatow getting an late goal but it was not enough and the title looks still pretty open but you never know. Now with Belchatow out of the way Zaglebie Lubin took the lead with a scoring affair against Widzew Lodz that ended 4-2 in favour of Zaglebie. Last years champions Legia Warszawa confirmed themselves a Intertoto Cup spot with a 2-1 over spring surprise package Odra Wodzislaw Slaski.

Another team that was fighting for a championship spot a few weeks ago is Korona Kielce who lost 2-1 to LKS Lodz which determined Kielce's dismal few weeks. Bottom dwellers Goenik Zabrze have saved themselves for yet another season with a 2-0 win over now relegated Wisla Plock, another team who is also going down with Wisla Plock is Pogon Szczecin who lost once again to in form Groclin 3-1. The last two teams that are being relegated for their involvement in the corruption scam are Arka Gdynia who surprisingly beat Lech Poznan 3-1 at home showing that they should be back next year in Ekstraklasa. But the other team that was in volved in corruption and wont be coming back next year is Gornik Leczna Who got hammered 5-0 by Cracovia with Tomasz Moskala getting a hat-trick.

As an Interesting season winds down in the Orange Ekstraklasa we know who is going down but more importantly we still dont have a champion but no need to worry on May 26 2007 at 8 pm we will have one, is it going to be GKS Belchatow or Zaglebie Lubin we just have to wait and see.
