By the Numbers
The organization of the Poland Super Cup was dragged into a new chaos with the last-minute notification of the new game rules to the clubs. Lech Poznań's head coach Niels Frederiksen announced that the new rules applied in the World Cup were presented to the footballers just one day before the match.
The Polish Football Association (PZPN) and Ekstraklasa SA management started blaming each other regarding why the rules were presented so late via online training. While PZPN officials claim they waited for Ekstraklasa for the training, the league management argues that an earlier date was never offered to them and that the date was determined by the Refereeing Committee.
Beyond the disputes, it also emerged that the cash prizes distributed to the winning teams in the organization were completely removed this year. While in previous years the championship was awarded 200 thousand and the finalist team 100 thousand Zloti, the federation officially announced that it will not distribute any cash prizes this year.
