Poland - Saudi Arabia: World Cup in Qatar 2022, live | The Poles win with difficulties thanks to a goal from Zielinski

Poland is playing it this Saturday against Saudi Arabia.

At the moment they win by the minimum in the second half thanks to a goal from Zielinski, which culminated a play by Lewandowski.

In an intense game, the Saudi team is proving that its surprising victory against Argentina was not a mirage.

Sczeszny has saved the team from him by saving a penalty from Al Dawsari, in the clearest occasion for the Saudis.

In addition, the Juventus goalkeeper has had more interventions of merit, which are turning him into the figure of the match.

"The green eagles" have claimed the expulsion of Cash for double yellow for an elbow.

After their draw against Mexico, the team led by Lewandowski needs to win to keep their chances of being in the round of 16 alive.

The Persian Gulf team is in a good position to make history and qualify,

something that they only achieved in the United States in 1994. This will try to prevent Lewandowski, who needs to make up for his missed penalty against Mexico.

The Polish striker still doesn't know what it's like to score in a World Cup.

Clear opportunity for Saudi Arabia

The Arab team has had the opportunity to draw on two consecutive occasions.

After a clear opportunity saved by the Polish goalkeeper, Aldawsari finished off the clearance from the edge of the area and in front of a practically empty goal, but the Saudi sent the shot well over the goal.

Penalty in favor of Saudi Arabia

Barely five minutes after Zielinski's goal, Bielik has committed a penalty on Al Shehri.

Saudi Arabia had the opportunity to equalize in the last minutes of regulation time in the first half, but Szczesny, the Poland goalkeeper, saved the shot from eleven meters and just after made a second save from the rebound that Al Burayk tried take advantage of.

GOOOOOOOL FROM ZIELINSKI!

Poland went ahead of Saudi Arabia with a great goal from Zielinski who finished off an assist from Lewandowski.

The Barcelona striker saved the occasion after missing a very clear opportunity seconds before from a center from Frankowski.

After missing, Lewandowski prevented the ball from going wide and set up a pass that Zielisnki converted into a goal that gave Poland the lead.

Poland looking to get out with the ball

The Poland team is having a hard time coming out with the ball.

The Poles have lost depth on the wings and it is not easy for them to break through from midfield due to the pressure from the Arab team.

Poland are resorting to more direct football in the few quiet moments of the first half.

Through long passes, the Polish players look for their star striker, Robert Lewandowski.

However, the inaccurate passes are not reaching the leader of the "White Eagles" comfortably, who whenever he receives with his back to the goal two or three players from Saudi Arabia fall on him, aware of the danger of leaving the Polish striker free .

Poland and Saudi Arabia fight for the ball

The two teams fight for possession of the ball in a continuous exchange of attacks.

Both teams have resorted to high pressure, to recover the ball and run in a game with a lot of rhythm.

For now, Saudi Arabia shows a slight superiority, having the two clearest chances.
