Sligo RFC has a reason to rejoice after their very own Kuba Wojtkowicz earned his first full international cap for Poland. The international friendly game, which took place at Stadion Miejski al. Unii Lubelskiej in Lodz, saw Poland and Georgia go head-to-head. The match started with Poland gaining an early advantage and holding on to a narrow lead of 14-12 at halftime. Kuba’s power try in the 34th minute of the game, which exploited a well-executed maul, was reminiscent of the skillful plays frequently seen at Hamilton Park, Sligo.
However, the second half of the match saw a reversal of fortunes for Poland as the Georgian team took charge and outplayed them. Despite Kuba’s noteworthy contributions, the match ended with a scoreline of 26-52 in favor of Georgia. While Poland may have lost the game, Kuba’s accomplishment is significant as he has become the first player from Sligo Rugby to earn a full international cap while still playing for the club.
Before this game, Kuba had already proved his mettle on the international stage as a member of the Ireland U-20 team, where he marked his debut appearance by scoring a try while donning the green jersey. With this achievement, he has once again proved his prowess and demonstrated his potential for greater things in the future. Sligo RFC is proud to have a formidable player like Kuba in their team.
Overall, the match was an exciting display of both teams’ talent and skill, with Georgia emerging as the dominant side. Despite the loss, Kuba’s success has brought delight to Sligo RFC and marked a significant milestone in his career. This accomplishment is a testament to his hard work and dedication, and we can’t wait to see more great things from him in the future.
