Tomasz Galiński stated that Bujar Pllana refused to play. Galiński said they probably guess the reason is either that Pllana has a transfer prepared soon, or that he did not get paid and does not want to play in such conditions. Galiński also said he heard that Bujar Pllana is to be punished for this, but that is a separate matter. Władysław Łupaszko, Lechia's coach, stated that Bujar Pllana is healthy and could have played, and suggested questions should be directed to Bujar Pllana and his agents.
