Poles in the Champions League center. Penalty kick, assistance and crossbar!

Piotr Zieliński

The “Polish match” in the 1/8 final of the Champions League did not disappoint. In the clash of Feyenoord Rotterdam (Jakub Moderate) with Inter (Piotr Zieliński), the latter.

After the catastrophic performance of PSV Eindhoven players in the Tuesday match of the Champions League against Arsenal (1: 7), in the Netherlands it was wondered if Feyenoord Rotterdam would be able to withstand in a clash with an equally strong rival. Mediolan Inter is certainly the highest European shelf, finally we are talking about the leader of Serie A.

Champions League: Jakub Moderate Active, Gorzko-Słodki match Piotr Zieliński

Polish fans could rub their hands for it, seeing the output settings of both teams about an hour before the start. On the side of the hosts, there was Jakub Model, who in a weekend league clash paused due to a minor injury, but he managed to heal to the Champions League.

On the other side from the first minute Piotr Zieliński played. One of the leaders of the Polish national team received trust from the coach, standing in the central zone, crucial for the fate of competition. Zieliński was to compete, among others just with the model.

How did the Polish clash end? I must admit that to the 1: 0 goal for Inter, it was Feyenoord who gave the impression of a team that is more experienced – and above all – there are no deep staffing problems (injuries). The hosts also played better, and Moder was certainly one of the most clear characters.

In their own style, Milanians were able to use one opponent’s error, indecision on the line of defenders and a goalkeeper.

Marcus Thuram gave a lot of peace to visitors. Until the break, the result did not change. Second half? Already in the 49th minute Inter dealt a second blow. Zieliński decided to hit, the ball defended … Moder, but after a while the first of these Poles played to Lautaro Martinez, and the Argentinian knew well what to do with the ball. At the second intervention, Moder was already helpless, as did the goalkeeper and colleagues from the defense of Feyenoord.

Zieliński’s assist, however, is the most noteworthy.

However, this was not the end of Polish accents on Wednesday evening at the Champions League. Moder could answer a more experienced colleague. The Pole connected very well to the offensive action, but at the decisive moment there was a bit of precision and happiness. The football brushed the bar of the Inter gate, and the feyenoord fans moaned, seeing no 0: 2 on the scoreboard, but 1: 2 with the premiere goal of a Pole in new colors.

And again, which Feyenoord failed, Inter footballers could come out. In the 64th minute, guests faced a great chance to increase the result to 3: 0. After verification, the VAR judge pointed to the eleventh meter, dictating a penalty kick. Zieliński approached the ball, kissing her before hitting. However, the intentions of the Pole were sensed by the FEYENOORD goalkeeper. Zieliński hit the ground, on the corner of the goal, but it seems that there was a bit of strength in hitting confidently – usually – taking a penalty kick, a Polish midfielder.

The result has not changed until the end of the meeting. Winning 2: 0 certainly brings the Champions League of Inter Football League to the quarter -finals. Feyenoord in the previous round, in the play-off phase, was eliminated by AC Milan. It seems that this Dutch team this time may have problems repetition of a successful two -legged opponent.
