Polonia Bydgoszcz - Wlokniarz Cz-wa 48-42 !
Polonia Bydgoszcz have won an incredibly exciting and dramatic match against Czestochowa 48-42. Andreas scored 14+1 points.
I'm very happy we won a match with such a strong opponent like Czestochowa. As I thought it wasn't an easy meeting and what's more we were a bit unlucky at the beginning. I mean Szczepaniak's engine failure just before the finish. Besides, the track was totally different at Friday's practice to what we found on Sunday and it took us some time to change set-ups. In my case it cost us as many as two heats but fortunately, for the deciding moments I was fast, both at the gate and distance. Currently I'm sick and I need to recover at last! I feel weak and have a fever. It's just as well we have won!
During the break after the heat 10 I noticed that my team mates sat down in their pits totally dejected. So I gathered them up and we had a short talk. What did I tell them? I told them to forget about the previous heats and focus on gating because we could still win the match! I said to them there was no point in thinking of what had happened and everything was still possible if we'd try. Because everything's possible if we really want it!
