Sándeczia defeated Rekord Bielsko-Biała 3-0 in the Round of 128 of the Cup on Wednesday evening. The hosts took control early and never looked back, advancing to the next stage while Rekord's cup campaign came to an abrupt end.
M. Kolar opened the scoring in the twenty-fourth minute, and and here's the thing — that goal changed everything. Rekord had enjoyed nearly half the possession before that moment, but Sándeczia's clinical finish turned their dominance into frustration.
The game settled into a pattern for the second half. Rekord pressed for a response, earning eight corners compared to just two for their hosts, but they lacked the cutting edge. To be fair, Sándeczia's defence held firm, and the visitors' three yellow cards told their own story of growing desperation.
P. Kowalik doubled the lead in the seventy-seventh minute, and by then the tie had effectively slipped away from Rekord. A. Brenkus added the third in the eighty-sixth minute, capping a performance where Sándeczia turned two chances into goals and made it count.
The statistics paint an interesting picture. Sándeczia recorded 89 attacks while Rekord managed 87, yet the difference in the final tally was stark. Possession barely moved — 49 per cent to 51 per cent — but the hosts took their opportunities and the visitors did not.
For Sándeczia this extends a run that has been uneven at best, with results ranging from a 4-1 win to a 1-3 defeat. Rekord's recent form showed promise with victories, but this cup exit suggests they need to find consistency before the heavier fixtures arrive.
