A friendly match with Moldova was to be almost fully dedicated to Kamil Grosicki. The winger after seventeen years of the game for the national team said goodbye to national colors, closing his counter of played matches in 95. Unfortunately, the whole envelope of this great event was disturbed by the confusion with Robert Lewandowski. The captain of our team gave up the game with Moldova and on Tuesday, June 10 with Finland due to the fatigue of the season. The problem is that for a long time it seemed that he would not even appear in Chorzów at the farewell to Grosicki.
Lewandowski tried to save, but only worsened? Koźmiński has no doubt
A powerful wave of criticism fell on Lewandowski for such an attitude. The representative careers of his and the player of Pogoń Szczecin are practically the same period of time. Besides, he is a captain. FC Barcelona striker finally came to Chorzów on a match day. He later explained in interviews that this was the plan from the beginning. Not everyone believed him, and the critic only stopped a little. Not from Marek Koźmiński. In an interview with the sports channel, the former PZPN vice president explicitly stated that Lewandowski provoked all of this himself, and the attempt to save the situation did not work out for good.
– I respect Robert. Perhaps he is the best footballer in the history of Polish football. However, if we talk about the captain of the staff or leader, then the assessment must be different. I'm sorry to say that, but it's a bit at the request of Robert. It is all unnecessary. This arrival at the national team was artificial. I do not know if these advisers from Robert's career lead her well from the non -abroad side. He went wrong. It will never be beloved by the nation by such behavior – said Koźmiński.
Only Grosicki is a pity
We will probably never know how it really was to be. The facts, however, are that another unnecessary confusion appeared around the Polish national team, which, worse, overshadowed the farewell to the great legend of our staff. Before Poles, now a key match of elimination to the world championships. On Tuesday, June 10 at 20:45 they will compete in Helsinki with Finland.
