Poland 2-0 Saudi Arabia: Lewandowski scores first ever World Cup goalWojciech Szczesny was Poland’s hero with a crucial penalty save as they kept their hopes of World Cup progress alive with a 2-0 win over Saudi Arabia.
But former Arsenal goalkeeper Szczesny denied them another moment of celebration to follow their shock win over Argentina as he first kept out captain Salem Al Dawsari’s penalty, and then produced an even better stop to tip over Mohammed Al Burayk’s effort on the rebound. Aston Villa full-back Matty Cash was booked for a wild challenge on Al Dawsari, the second of three quickfire yellow cards shown to the European side.
Al Shehri was unable to get his head to a Sami Al Naji cross at the other end, and there was a stoppage when Lewandowski inadvertently trod on the arm of Saudi defender Ali Al Bulayhi. Good footwork and a clever ball from Al Dawsari released Feras Al Brikan but he fired high and wide with the goal at his mercy on the hour mark.
