In the 63rd minute, Jaroslaw Rostow hit a crossing free kick to the open man running down the field. 64 minutes into the match, Balinka SA's goal looked a bit too open when Damazy Walczak came free, but Konstanty Fujara reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Marek Wojtkiewicz showed brilliant goalkeeper skills when he caught the ball after a hard shot from Konstanty Mazierski in the 65th minute of the match.
