2000/2001football season kicks off with only one red card - for the coach!

The 2000/2001-football season has begun. Of the five top teams, only one lost their opening game. Current league-champion Polonia Warszawa lost by one goal to Amica Wronki. Polonia's players got four yellow cards and one red one because of the rude conduct of their coach Dariusz Wdowczyk. Wisla Krakow, which won the championship two years ago, started the new season by beating Ruch Radzionkow four-nil. Legia Warszawa, the only team widely known in Europe, scraped a one-goal win over Zaglebie Lubin. (Gazeta Wyborcza, page 1, 31, 32) M.M.
