In the video you posted the GK is well in front of the goal line, so such an attempt to score had sense.

In case of Polish attempt, Welsh GK was standing almost on the goal line, so I have no idea what Zieliński( :?: ) was thinking about.

That’s 2 countries that are partially occupied by Russia on the EC. I don’t know if Poland would wish to qualify and become a 3rd country ;)

Wales-Poland rivals Georgia-Greece in creativity.

Not surprising knowing how both teams like to play in crucial matches.

Indeed, very dull match. Wales were slightly better, but Poland has Szczęsny in the goal, so a goalless draw is a logical result.

I guess you didn't watch Israel u19 one on Saturday :banana:

I couldn't find a video, so I will just tell you that the player touched the ball twice and it was a turnover.

Wales collapsed in the 2nd part of ET, but Poland are too weak to take advantage of it.

Last chance free kick for Poland and Lewandowski (?)...

Poorly taken to sum up Polish performance tonight.

FT 0-0. The finals have delivered the close contests the semis lacked. Two shootouts and a one goal win.

Didn't see the coin tosses, but Poland are going first in front of Welsh fans so they must have won one and lost one.

Poland win 5-4. Wales hit 3 down the middle, they didn't get away with it thrice.

Congratulations Poles! A campaign filled with torture for you throughout, but victory is yours! :)
