This is the closest opponent of the Polish national football team. The balance is favorable for the white and red team
Before the match against Nigeria, Polish players will play a friendly against Ukraine in Wrocław. This is our would-be rival from the 2026 World Cup play-off finals in the USA, Mexico and Canada.
The Polish Football Association announced on its website that the Polish national team will play a friendly match against Ukraine on May 31. The match will take place at the Tarczyński Arena stadium in Wrocław. The start time of the meeting will be announced in a separate announcement.
Ticket sales via the InPost Mobile application will begin on Monday, May 11. The pre-sale will also last the next day, Tuesday. On Wednesday, there will be an open sale. It takes place only on the Internet. It will not be possible to purchase tickets at the stadium on the day of the match. After the match against Ukraine, the Polish national team will come to Warsaw, where they will face Nigeria on June 3 at the PGE National Stadium.
Polish players will play against Ukraine in Wrocław. The balance is favorable for the white and red team
So far, Poland has faced Ukraine 10 times. The teams met for the first time in 1998 in Kiev. Then the white and red team had the upper hand and won that match 2-1. The last time Polish players competed with their eastern neighbors was in June 2024. Back then, Michał Probierz’s players were better and defeated their rivals 3:1. So far, the balance of matches is favorable for the white and red team. Our team won five matches, two were drawn, and the Ukrainians were victorious three times.
The two teams almost faced each other two months earlier. Poland and Ukraine could run into each other in the final of the 2026 World Cup play-offs in the USA, Mexico and Canada. However, Ukraine lost the first semi-final match against Sweden 1:3. A few days later, the players of “Trzech Korona” turned out to be better than Jan Urban’s “Orły” and just before the end of regular playing time, they deprived our team of a chance to participate in the World Cup.
