LIVESTREAM Poland: Warsaw Eagles @ Warsaw Mets, June 29, 14:00 CET (2 pm, 8 am ET)
The Warsaw Mets (7–0) host the Warsaw Eagles (7–0) at Gen. Kazimierz Sosnkowski Stadium on Sunday in a Polish Football League clash between the league’s top offense and staunchest defense, with first place in the Northern Group and home-field playoff advantage at stake.
Offensive juggernaut vs. defensive fortress
The Mets average 50.3 points per game (352 total), spearheaded by quarterback Clayton Uecker’s league-leading 37 touchdown passes. Receivers Daniel Przyborowski and Krzysztof Bartwicki (21 combined touchdowns) return to bolster an attack that showcased depth in Week 7, with Jakub Sema (3 touchdowns) and Artur Czarnik (2 touchdowns) stepping up. Their ground game, led by Wiktor Chorążyczewski and Aleksander Deluga, faces a Warsaw Eagles defense that has surrendered just 36 points all season. Anchored by linemen Konrad Paszkiewicz and Alessandro Madaro, plus ex-Mets standouts Adam Dobkowski and Mateusz Jaw, the Eagles lead the league in sacks and turnovers forced.
Key battles in the trenches
The Mets’ offensive line—featuring Maks Mieniashov, Bartłomiej Struss, and Marcin Miszczak—must contain Dobkowski’s pass rush and disrupt Madaro’s interior pressure. Conversely, the Eagles’ offense, led by quarterback Jake Schimenz (17 touchdowns), relies on a veteran line (Murilo Machado, Piotr Gąsior) to neutralize the Mets’ defensive front (Kacper Żebrowski, Tomasz Piwowar). Schimenz’s mobility and running back Bartosz Gnoza’s 11 rushing touchdowns test a Mets unit allowing just 9.1 points per game.
Playoff implications and city supremacy
Sunday’s winner claims the Northern Group’s top seed and home-field advantage through the semifinals. The Eagles, defending champions and slight favorites, lean on playoff-tested discipline, while the Mets counter with explosive depth and momentum. Beyond standings, bragging rights in Warsaw’s fiercest rivalry add urgency. Though both teams may hold strategic cards before playoffs, the clash promises a defining chapter in Poland’s football history.
Kickoff at Gen. Kazimierz Sosnkowski Stadium (2:00 PM) sets the stage for a tactical duel between the league’s most potent offense and its unyielding defense, with city pride and postseason stakes on the line.
