The Barcelona striker expressed his anger at Portugal’s 3-1 defeat of Poland.
Poland lost 3-1 at home to Portugal, complicating its hopes of qualifying for the next round of the UEFA Nations League. It finished third in Group A of League 1 with three points, behind the team led by Cristiano Ronaldo (9 points) and Luka Modric’s Croatia (6).
After the match, the one who was not at all patient with the moment that the Polish team is going through was Robert Lewandowski, who made it clear that his teammates are not knowing how to assist him as they do at FC Barcelona, where he is already the top scorer in LaLiga with 10 goals scored in 9 matches.
“I’m not a midfielder and my job is not to drop down to receive the ball in my own half. I can do that in training,” said the Barça striker in conversation with the press near the National Stadium in Warsaw, where they will be able to take revenge on the Croatians on Tuesday from 20:45 Central European Time.
Along the same lines, Roberto Lewandowski, without wanting to hold back his innuendos towards the rest of the members of the Polish national team, explained: “ During the matches I have to stay closer to the area and wait for crosses, passes and balls to come to me until something happens. This is something we need to improve or change and not only against Portugal. It doesn’t seem like we have the ball close to the opponent’s area and my role is to try to get something there. ”
