The whole of Poland was waiting for Lewandowski’s words.

The whole of Poland was waiting for Lewandowski’s words. 

Euro 2024 is fast approaching. The Polish national team faced a hell of a challenge, as we were placed in the group of death with Austria, the Netherlands and France. After the disastrous 2023, which effectively spoiled the image of the football team, many fans and experts show a skeptical approach. However, this does not affect Robert Lewandowski, who in an interview with “Łączy Nas Piłka” approached the whole matter very positively.

A Polish fan of the national football team has not had such a difficult and frustrating period as 2023 for a long time. Fernando Santos’ terrible term of office, disastrous qualifications for Euro, which had to be saved with play-offs. In addition, the scandals after the World Cup in Qatar (with the “bonus” at the forefront) and one point scored in the qualifying two-legged match against Moldova, which added the icing on the rotten cake that was the last dozen or so months with the Polish team.

The seriously tarnished image of our players was noticed by Michał Probierz. The coach appealed to the fans for more faith on TVN before the tournament in Germany . Now, the captain of the national team, Robert Lewandowski, presented an optimistic approach to the matter . In an interview with the “Łączy Nas Piłka” portal, the Barcelona player declared that he strongly believes in the good play of the Poles.

“A cool new chapter.” The captain is enthusiastic about Euro 2024

– I hope that now we will write a new, cool chapter, even though we will play in the “group of death “. We realize who we are playing against. The Netherlands and France are in a class of their own, and Austria played a really great qualifier. However, I believe that we will score points and play such football that the fans will be proud of us – said the best scorer in the history of the Polish national team.

– I’m more optimistic about it all now. I’m starting to appreciate things that I didn’t have time to pay attention to before. Maybe it’s also due to age and experience, Lewandowski added.

Lewandowski speaks highly of Probierz. “The footballer will appreciate honesty”

The Polish striker did not hide his respect for Michał Probierz’s approach. From his words it can be concluded that the coach was largely responsible for clearing the atmosphere after Fernando Santos’ disastrous period. And he didn’t need very complicated means to do it.

At the end, the player will always feel the coach. Is he telling the truth, or is he saying one thing and doing something completely different? Even if he may not like the truth, if the coach tells him that he played poorly or won’t play at all, the player will appreciate this honesty. It will be easier for him to come to terms with possible dissatisfaction and turn it into sports anger, into something good. He will have faith in the coach, Lewandowski said.

The Polish national team at Euro 2024 will play in a group with the Netherlands (16/06), Austria (21/06) and France (25/06). They will have their base at Hannover 96. However, before they go there, they will play two more test matches against Ukraine (June 7) and Turkey (June 10). Both at the PGE Narodowy in Warsaw. The call-ups will be announced on May 29 and will include 28 players + 1 additional goalkeeper from the Polish Ekstraklasa.

Will the Polish national team make it out of the Euro 2024 group?
