Poland to make late decision on Lewandowski inclusion v Austria

Poland head coach Michal Probierz remains unsure if Robert Lewandowski will be able to start Friday’s Euro 2024 clash with Austria.

Lewandowski missed Sunday’s 2-1 loss to the Netherlands in Poland’s Group D opener after injuring his thigh in his side’s final warm-up game.

The Barcelona striker was always expected to miss that game but was given a chance of playing against Austria in Berlin after taking part in team training.

Probierz confirmed on the eve of the crucial showdown that “all players” are available, but could not say whether Lewandowski will start.

“There is a big difference if you have best player in the world on the bench or you have him on the pitch,” Probierz told reporters.
