Jan Urban revealed his cards before Lithuania – Poland. “May it not be like this tomorrow”

Journalists present at the official pre-match media meeting immediately began to look for possible analogies to the past. Most often, the player who appeared at the press conference 24 hours before the match was in the starting line-up of the Polish national team. Could Bartosz Kapustka be a non-obvious choice?

Jan Urban opens up about the attitude of Poles. He said about the key

The midfielder himself and an important figure in Legia Warszawa did not confirm that he could actually be sure of a place in the Polish squad on Sunday.

Regardless of who coach Jan Urban ultimately chooses, the appropriate attitude of the visitors will certainly be a very important issue. Poles are the favorites, but they must be careful because the Lithuanians have their arguments. The Polish coach argued before the match against New Zealand that Poland’s Sunday opponent should have more points in the qualifying group table.

And what did he say before the Lithuania-Poland clash?

– I said it and I say it now too. The fact that so many Polish fans come. It’s nice to some extent, of course, but it’s primarily a commitment. I can’t imagine someone leaving the field without giving everything, physically. That he wanted the best. Because there are many different things on the pitch, things don’t always work out. This is a match against an opponent who does not win his matches. Although some people say that when you lose many times, you are closer to victory. Hopefully this won’t be the case tomorrow. We know perfectly well that we are the favorite and any result other than victory will be perceived as a defeat. We are aware of this. And I hope the players know it well. No one has won against the Lithuanians on a high note recently, everyone had to struggle against them to get three points. And this should reach the players’ awareness – said the coach of the Polish national team during Saturday’s pre-match conference.
