Widzew Łódź equalised the score against DAC 1904 1-1, securing another point in the fight for Ekstraklasa survival. The match took place on July 5, 2026, and after the 68th minute Marek Kornvig scored for the visitors. Polish striker Kacper Świderski responded two minutes later, restoring parity.

What did coach Vuković, Świderski and Kornvig say after the game?

Coach Milan Vuković highlighted that the squad showed character, even though they failed to convert all chances. "We still have a lot of work, but fighting for every point is essential," he said post‑match. Kacper Świderski noted his goal resulted from good teamwork with the midfielders and that the team must improve second‑half efficiency. Marek Kornvig admitted his strike was lucky but was pleased to keep the draw in a tough away fixture.

How serious is Tonio Teklić's injury?

During the second half, Vuković announced a serious knee injury to Tonio Teklić, who was hurt after an awkward clash with a DAC defender. Medical staff estimate the striker could miss 4 to 6 weeks, limiting attacking options. "It's not great news, but we have to adapt our tactics and give other players a chance," Vuković explained.

What does this mean for the survival battle?

In the Ekstraklasa, Widzew Łódź sits 14th with 42 points after 34 games (12 wins, 6 draws, 16 losses) and recently beat Piast Gliwice 2-1 on May 23, 2026. The club has a goal tally of 41 scored and 41 conceded, a zero goal difference. After the draw with DAC 1904, they remain 18 points behind leaders Lech Poznań. Their last five results are 3 wins, 0 draws, and 2 losses, with the most recent two matches being victories, giving a short two‑game winning streak.

What’s next on Widzew’s schedule?

The next challenge comes against Górnik Zabrze on Wednesday. Vuković plans to tweak the offensive setup to compensate for Teklić’s absence. The team hopes for a return to form from Świderski and possibly a boost from a young reserve striker. Fans are counting on another point that could revive hopes of escaping the relegation zone.
