Sandecja Nowy Sącz vs Sokół Kleczew Match Recap - Nov 7, 2025

Sandecja Nowy Sącz Stuns Sokół Kleczew with Late Comeback Victory

Sandecja Nowy Sącz turned the tide in a thrilling encounter at Stadion im. Ojca Władysława Augustynka, overcoming a first-half deficit to secure a 2-1 victory over Sokół Kleczew. The win marks a crucial turning point for Sandecja, who had struggled in recent matches, while Sokół's recent scoring prowess fell flat when it mattered most.

Kubiak put Sokół ahead in the 39th minute, continuing his impressive form after a five-goal haul in their last match against Podbeskidzie. His strike seemed to signal a continuation of Sokół's attacking momentum, but it also highlighted Sandecja's defensive vulnerabilities that had plagued them throughout the season. With Kubiak's goal, Sokół appeared poised to capitalize on their recent scoring spree, but the match took a dramatic turn after halftime.

In the 67th minute, Skalecki leveled the score for Sandecja, marking a significant moment for a team that had been searching for consistency. Skalecki's goal came as a result of increased pressure from Sandecja, who had been desperate to find their rhythm after a string of disappointing results. This equalizer not only reignited hope for Sandecja but also shifted the momentum firmly in their favor.

Just 15 minutes later, Plesnierowicz delivered the decisive blow, scoring in the 82nd minute to complete Sandecja's comeback. This late goal encapsulated the resilience that Sandecja had been lacking in previous outings, where they often faltered under pressure. Plesnierowicz's strike was a testament to the team's determination to turn their fortunes around after a series of lackluster performances.

Reflecting on recent form, Sandecja entered this match with just one win in their last five games, including three draws and a heavy loss to Śląsk Wrocław II. Their struggles were evident, with an average of only three shots on target per game and an alarming tendency to concede goals. However, today's performance showcased a newfound tenacity that could signal a shift in their season.

On the other hand, Sokół Kleczew had been riding high on a wave of confidence after scoring 11 goals in their last three matches. Yet, this defeat serves as a stark reminder of the unpredictability of football. Despite Kubiak's earlier goal and the team's offensive capabilities, they failed to maintain control and succumbed to Sandecja's resurgence.

The implications of this match extend beyond just three points. For Sandecja, this victory could be the catalyst they need to build momentum as they prepare for their next fixture against Zaglebie Sosnowiec. Meanwhile, Sokół must regroup quickly before facing ŁKS Łódź II; they cannot afford to dwell on this setback if they hope to climb the standings.

As I predicted in my pre-match preview, Sokół's attacking prowess was expected to shine through. However, it turns out I underestimated Sandecja's ability to respond under pressure. This match serves as a reminder that football is often unpredictable; teams can rise and fall in an instant.

With both teams now looking ahead, Sandecja will aim to build on this victory while Sokół must find a way to regain their scoring touch. The battle for points in II Liga - East continues, and today's clash has added another layer of intrigue to an already competitive season.
