Robert Lewandowski: We gave it our all
The White-and-Reds were able to leave the pitch with their heads held high after the match against France, despite a 1:3 defeat. The only goal for the Polish national team was scored by Robert Lewandowski. "We gave it our all. It is a pity that we did not score in the first half, because we created several clear-cut situations. The most important thing is that we tried and fought until the end," said the national team captain.
The Poles resisted the favoured team for long periods of time. They had their opportunities. However, the opponent was more effective. "The first lost goal was a particular disappointment. We moved too far back and the French took advantage of that. Tough luck, it happens. The important thing is that we fought on and that is what counts. We lacked the time and skills to achieve something more," emphasised Lewandowski.
"The end goal is certainly some incentive. The most important thing is that we did not give up. This team needs to enjoy the game. When we attack, there is more joy. When we play defensively, there is less of it," added the captain of the White-and-Reds.
