October 5th, 2017 — 1:03pm

Poland has been beaten by Denmark by 4-0 in their World Cup qualifying match.


This allows Denmark to maintain their hope of qualification alive and put pressure on both Poland and Montenegro.

Denmark started the match the better under the influence of Tottenham Hotspurs midfielder Christian Eriksen. The latter managed to find Thomas Delaney on a corner and Delaney managed to open the scoring for his team with a powerful header.

Denmark will continue to dominate the game and will create opportunities one after another. Denmark will add a second goal in the 42nd minute. Again it will be Christian Eriksen who will be the architect of the goal with a wonderful cross that will be met by Andreas Cornelius. His powerful shot will give the Poland keeper Fabianski no chance.

Poland will try to come back stronger after the break, and again they will find Christian Eriksen on their path. The latter will fire a powerful shot which the Poland goalkeeper could only parry, and Jorgensen will be the first on the rebound to make the score 3-0. Continue reading »

Poland Has Good Chances Ahead

July 25th, 2016 — 1:59pm

This is definitely a good time for Poland as they have reached the knockout stages for the first time of a European Championship.


They finished in the second place in Group C as they beat their opposing team Ukraine. There were two chances early on that the team was unable to avail of but the effort they made towards the later stage of the game was fruitful. Their opponent team Ukraine has been already out of the game, but they did put in an effort which went wide. Jakub on the other hand, put in a shot with his left foot, which was done 54 minutes into the game. That helped to catapult their team into the next round of the championship. Now they would be facing Switzerland as they gear up to be part of the 16 teams. Their next match is on Saturday.

One of the key players, Bartosz Kapustka received a yellow card and hence, he would be missing the match that would be held at Saint-Etienne. If Poland had been able to get a win with a larger margin they would have made it ahead of Germany. Continue reading »
