POLAND
Czeslaw Michniewicz, the head coach of Poland, who has been at the helm since 2022 will be looking to make a name for himself in Qatar. He has been the coach of domestic teams in Poland and this is his first stint internationally.
Poland was in Group-I in their World Cup Qualifying campaign and they finished in 2nd place, just behind England, with their ace striker Robert Lewandowski ending up with 8 goals to his name in qualifying. They faced Sweden in the finals of the playoffs and won 2-0 to book their place in Qatar. They do have some players who can make an impact but they will require a team effort to navigate a slightly tricky group to make the Round of 16.

TEAM NEWS
All eyes will be on Robert Lewandowski. The fiery striker of FC Barcelona is the leader in attack for the Polish team. While he hasn’t quite replicated his domestic form to his international form, there is no doubt that the number 9 has the skill to turn the game on his head. He is, personally, enjoying a good season in Catalonia and would be looking to continue the same.
Piotr Zieliński also will be a key player for them as the Napoli player can play alongside Lewa and cause a lot of damage to the opposition. With the likes of Szczesny, Bednarek, and Krychowicz in their ranks, they do have experience across the pitch and will hope these players bring out their A-game.
