🏆Match #51: Round of 16 - France 3-1 Poland (4/12/22, 3pm)

Post by Shabu »

France went from winning 4-1 to 2-1 to losing 1-0.

Poland drew 0-0, won 2-0 then lost 2-0 so they've only scored in one match.

So will the team that's getting worse each game beat the team that only scores in 33% of games?

Grateful for the option on iPlayer to bin Cowen and Dublin on BBC1 for Dennis and Sutton on 5 Live. They're no Champion and McCoist but I'll take it.

Like any other team, they are finding it is not easy to break down a team that is being pushed back and forced to pur everybody behind the ball. If you score a early doors against teams like this it throw out their game plan

Helped immensely by the number 16 who decided to defend 2 yards deeper than his team mates.

Indeed, wasn’t exactly hard to find space when Glick wandered forward.

Poland had to score with the three shot chance earlier. Feel that goal by France just before half time will kill their hopes.

Of course, they grew in confidence after France couldn't find a breakthrough and 1 attack almost produced them a goal after a bit of panic at the centure of their defence in their first meaningful attack
