Miedź Legnica form and stats

Legnica's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Cracovia Krakow that finished 1-1. Henríquez, attacking player, was the top performer on the team in that game, scoring a match rating of 7.63. Henríquez scored one goal.

Preceding that game, the 0-1 loss visiting Rakow Czestochowa's place.
