Squad Watch: Week 7. Łukasz Piszczek Or Łukasz P.?
Comments(35)
Łukasz Piszczek is the most prominent player so far accused in the match fixing scandal in the Ekstraklasa. He was a part of the Zagłębie team that agreed a draw with Cracovia at the end of the 2005/06 season. Though Piszczek was not one of the organizers of the transaction, he’s now the Polish player who’s most associated with the corruption. Now he considers resignation from representing Poland and playing in Euro 2012. This is the problem with no easy solution; Franz Smuda has so far refrained to make a clear comment.

During this evening's Copa del Rey final, won by Atletico Madrid in extra time at the Bernabeu (big win, that one), Jose Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo were both sent off.
