Had lewandowski scored at 1:14 Senegal would have gone through on goal difference.
They should've also highlighted the moment when Japanese players were passing the ball around to waste time at the end of the game
Japan started the game with 6 subs against a team that's much higher in ranking (Poland ranked 9th while Japan ranked 61). Jeez they got balls.
全然面白くなくて観客を無視するプレイ
🇧🇪👍
As a polish person: it was the weakest game by Poland in XXIth century by far
Ese Lewandowski no hace ni un gol ni al arco iris, de gana se metió a Qatar 2022, va ser nuevamente el colista del grupo jajajajaja, Suecia le puede hacerle pelea, no Polonia
Where. Is Lewandowski?
Hmmm…
Idk for whom vote:
I'm from Poland, but Japan is cool too…

Japan lost but celebrate. Well, I hope Japan will shock the world one day and become a world champion. Their women have already done that at the highest level.
