In a high-scoring pre-season friendly, Polish fourth-tier side Elana Torun narrowly defeated Sieradz 4-3 in a match that served as excellent preparation for both teams ahead of the new campaign. The game, played at Sieradz’s home ground, saw four lead changes and a flurry of goals before the visitors ultimately held on.

Friendly context

Both sides used the match to test different formations and provide minutes to fringe players. Sieradz will be encouraged by their attacking threat but will need to tighten defensively, having conceded four goals despite playing at home. Elana Torun’s ability to respond after each Sieradz equaliser will please their manager ahead of the league season.
