Panthers in action again
The representatives of Poland in the European League of Football have started this year's competition excellent.

Panthers performed exceptionally well, with the duo of Matthew Vitale & Tony Tate shining in the game. The first one threw four touchdown passes, while the latter scored three of them.

– We have great respect for Leipzig. They competed to the end last week and found a way to win. We need to get back to work and make corrections to our mistakes and focus on being a better team this week than we were last week. As always, we look forward to any other chance to compete! – says Dave Christensen, head coach of Panthers Wrocław.
– The victory over the Hamburg Sea Devils motivates us to work even harder. The Leipzig Kings are a dangerous rival, as we have experienced before. However, our coaching staff has thoroughly analyzed our opponents' game, so I am confident that we will return from Leipzig with another victory. It will undoubtedly be a great and fiercely fought game at the European level – says Michał Latoś, president of Panthers Wrocław.
