LEICESTER POLSKA stretched their unbeaten run to 13 with a cosy victory against Huncote in Round 1 of the Billy Walton Cup. In a first half in which Polska were utterly dominant, they only went in at the break 1-0 up thanks to a 45th minute Lukasz Tabaka penalty, when in reality many more goals would have been fair as the hosts missed chance after chance. Tabaka then got his and Polska's second on 54 minutes from a Radek Gaglewski throw in. He then completed his hat trick on 63 minutes from a through ball from Karol Osipinski, before coming off injured to be replaced by Rob Crane who played in the emergency centre forward role! Radek Gaglewski then made it 4-0 on 70 minutes from a Savo pass, only for Rob Smith to pull one back for Huncote on 73 minutes. PLAYER RATINGS: SPIDER: Virtual passenger first half, pulled off a stunning save in the second. MARK: Apart from losing the ball late on when dwelling on it, Mark had an excellent game and was superb in the air. KAROL: Set up Polska's third goal and put some good tackles in DAVID WASIK: Marked his man superbly first half, gave the ball away too cheaply too many times in the second. ALAN CHATER: Fantastic performance from the Polska skipper, now arguably one of Polska's most vital players. MAREK: Good distribution throughout, solid game RADEK: Back in action after a few weeks off, scored in his 9th consecutive game to create a Polska record. MACIEK WYSOCZANSKI: Put together a series if great passes in first half especially MACIEK WISNIEWSKI: A bit quiet second half, but got round his full backs well SAVO: Missed a glorious chance on 22 minutes, but in the thick of it for a full 90 mins LUKASZ: Well taken hat trick, and remains in top form ROB: Came on last 20, worked hard up front |
