“There was a deficit and a deficit in this match,” he admitted. Holland has experience and quality. She probably didn’t create situations 100%, but she had a couple of situations that she turned into goals. It was difficult for us to create something that would allow us to follow the blow – tell him and his friends about the game.
Prior to this match, the Barcelona striker was asked if he would prefer to play in a squad that includes a striker or two forwards. He did not give a specific answer. Czeslav Mitchnowitz decided on Thursday that a system with “dozens” and one striker would be better – this setup was supposed to ensure a proper serve – thanks to him, Lewandowski was receiving more good passes in the penalty area. It was not visible at all.
“But when we started playing with two strikers in the second half, it looked really great in the first 10 minutes,” Lewandowski noted.
– We lost the second goal a lot and we lacked an idea. We were afraid to take risks, we lacked faith that we would be able to score. The Dutch national team has always had a defensive advantage, it was difficult to throw the ball into the penalty area at the right moment for a shot. Analyze that we were too far from the target.
Lewandowski approached Czeslav Micniewicz in the first half, exchanging a few sentences with him. What did the selector say? The Dutch initially had to change the injured player which made them change their tactics. We had to pay attention to this because we were ready for a different match. The captain explained that you had to respond on the field, it took a long time.
Do you see the positives after this meeting? One position can change the image, but that doesn’t really matter. We were attacking with very few players, which made it difficult to threaten our opponents, and in defense, when we had an advantage, we weren’t doing well either, and couldn’t collect the balls. We tried to do what we were trained to do, to implement the tactical assumptions, but today it doesn’t seem to work. “We have to think about what needs to be changed to make him look better,” said the Barcelona striker.
How does he evaluate his own performance? I didn’t get the chance, I didn’t get the chance. All the matches I had to play with my half. He said the small numbers in the attack meant I didn’t even have to make an attempt.
“It’s a good time for us to analyze what we played today, to see what didn’t work, and to make it look a lot better during the World Cup,” he added.
Is there time until the World Cup to address these ills? – In theory enough, but it is up to us how to use it – concluded Captain Biało-Czerwonych.

His eyesight deteriorated day by day. First in one eye. Activities in the hall, a ball hit him in the face Michau Globusch was in the hospital. Later, the vision in the other eye faded. Nevertheless, a well-deserved youth coach and teacher can still be found in the stands of the stadium in Gdynia – he comes to the matches and his friends tell him what is happening on the field. In “X-ray,” the guardian of European Championship gold medalists from years ago talks about learning a new life and putting the head at an angle so that the number of the oncoming trolley car can be seen at the station.
