Wisła Kraków Stadium Ban Partially Lifted After Successful Appeal
Wisła Kraków has won a partial reprieve from a stadium ban originally imposed by the Polish Football Association (PZPN), following disciplinary proceedings related to fan misconduct during the recent match against Ruch Chorzów.
The initial ruling required Wisła to play its upcoming fixture against Stal Rzeszów behind closed doors, a decision that sparked concern among supporters and club officials alike. However, after lodging a formal appeal, the club received confirmation that fans will now be permitted to attend the match—albeit under specific restrictions.
While the exact nature of the limitations has not been publicly detailed, sources close to the club suggest that certain sections of the stadium may remain closed and additional security measures will be implemented to ensure compliance with league standards.
Wisła Kraków expressed appreciation for the reconsideration, emphasizing its commitment to maintaining a safe and respectful match-day environment. The club also reiterated its zero-tolerance stance on behavior that jeopardizes fan access or violates PZPN regulations.
The decision comes at a crucial moment in Wisła’s campaign, as the team continues its push for promotion in the Betclic 1 Liga. With fan support partially restored, the atmosphere at Stadion Miejski im. Henryka Reymana is expected to be electric—though tempered by the recent disciplinary episode.
