And here we go for this Poland-Austria, start of the second day in this group D. A defeat would almost eliminate one of the two teams in the race for the round of 16.
The lines have fallen, Poland still without Lewandowski
Robert Lewandowski, still too fresh after his biceps femoris injury, is on the bench against Austria as he was against the Netherlands in the first match. No indications at the moment on a possibility of entry into play.
For Austria, Arnautovic occupies the forefront of the attack in place of Gregoritsch.
This match will be played in the rain at the Olympic stadium in Berlin, in front of 70,000 people in a great atmosphere, with the Poles and Austrians having been enjoying each other since the start of the day in the streets of Berlin.
Poland’s eleven: Szczesny – Bednarek, Dawidowicz, Kiwior – Frankowski, Piotrowski, Zielinski, Slisz, Zalewski – Buksa, Piatek.
Austria’s eleven: Pentz – Posch, Lienhart, Tauner, Mwene – Seiwald, Baumgartner, Grillitsch – Laimer, Arnautovic, Sabitzer.
Hello and welcome everyone to this live.
Woe to the loser in this group D. Poland, beaten by the Netherlands (2-1) faces Austria, beaten by France (1-0) in a duel which very much resembles a cleaver match to avoid the last place in the group and the premature return home.
The Austrians, who manhandled the Blues, sometimes physically, as Griezmann’s forehead and Mbappé’s nose remember, will have to show a little more to surpass the Poles who are still orphans of Lewandowski. Will he tempt the devil to save the homeland? The compositions will be known around 5 p.m. Kick-off at 6 p.m. on BeIN Sports 1. A match to also follow live and in full on RMC 100% Euro digital radio. And of course live commentary on the RMC Sport website and app.
