VIDEO: Scouting Polska presents Mariusz Stępiński

EKSTRAKLASAreview is happy to bring you another excellent video from Scouting Polska, featuring young prodigy Mariusz Stępiński.

Stępiński’s has had a great season at Widzew, chipping in with goals and assists – and even coming third in #Ekstraklasa Magazine’s “Pięćdziesiąt” list.

Now he has revealed that he has no intention of signing a professional contract in Łódź, and with a number of clubs sniffing around looks to be off to Germany in the summer. So now is an excellent time to take a look back at Stępiński’s Ekstraklasa career.

Seeing him live for the first time in a Legia shirt, you felt from the very first moment that he is the real deal. It was a game in the Europa League that, over two games, became something of a legend for the club in recent years that were less prolific on the continental stage. He wasn’t playing perfect, but at 33 he stood out with his technique and ability to keep the ball and opponents’ attention, creating space for others.

It’s tough being at the bottom of the league, and when in a relegation battle, it is important to have faith. Even at bottom side GKS Bełchatów, nine points from safety at the time of writing, there is plenty of that to go around. Editor Ryan Hubbard caught up with their Venezuelan defender Raul González Guzman ahead of Sunday’s clash with Górnik Zabrze to discuss the relegation battle, life in Poland, and most importantly, his nickname…

Tonight, Jan Urban’s Legia Warszawa side travel to Wrocław to begin the defence of their Puchar Polski title in the Final’s first leg.

Storming up the league: The surprise rise of Dolcan Ząbki

Ząbki isn’t particularly known for its football. In fact, outside of Poland it is barely known at all. With a population of around 30,000, the Masovian town tacks onto the northeastern side of the Polish capital Warsaw, connected by a minor train line and a couple of buses. Until recently the local club Dolcan Ząbki languished in the lower leagues, but this season sees them fighting to join their local rivals Polonia and Legia in the Ekstraklasa for the very first time.
