How it happened

Radomiak goalkeeper Filip Majchrowicz made seven saves and still finished on the losing side. Motor Lublin won 3-2 after trailing at the break, with the decisive goal arriving in the second minute of stoppage time.

F. Koperski put Radomiak ahead on 24 minutes, and that was the score at half-time. Mbaye Ndiaye levelled on 53 minutes, and K. Czubak gave Motor the lead from the penalty spot on 70.

Steve Kingue pulled Radomiak level on 80 minutes, but the home side could not hold out. Simon struck at 90+2 to settle it. There were no red cards.

The numbers

The shot count was lopsided: Motor had 22 attempts to Radomiak's six, and 11 of them were on target against two. Expected goals read 2.59 for Motor and 0.86 for Radomiak, so the visitors' three goals sit close to what their chances warranted. Possession was 55% to 45% in Motor's favour, and corners were five to three.

Majchrowicz earned a match rating of 7.4 for his seven saves. The highest rating on the pitch went to Kingue, a defender, with 8.4 for his goal and 67 touches. Simon and Ndiaye each scored and each had a match rating of 8.2. Simon also created three chances through key passes.

What it means

Motor are 14th with nine points from 10 matches, while Radomiak are 16th with eight. Radomiak's goal difference of -14 is the heavier burden, and their expected goals against of 21.1 shows how often they have been stretched.

Motor's recent ten-match sequence reads win, draw, loss, loss, win, loss, draw, win, loss, loss. This result adds a win to a sequence of mixed fortunes. In the head-to-head record, the four earlier meetings brought two draws and two Motor wins, with none for Radomiak. Motor now have three wins in five.
