MEXICO vs POLAND 0-0 | World Cup Qatar 2022 | All match stats

Mexico-Poland, second match of Group C of the 2022 World Cup. After a soporific first half, the game suddenly ignites at the start of the second half, when the referee assigns a penalty to the Poles, but Lewandowski is blocked by an extraordinary Ochoa. Martino’s national team played better, but could not create the conditions to hurt Szczesny and the match ended in a draw. Saudi Arabia remains alone at the top of the group. THE MATCH The teams face each other in the open from the very beginning, playing a good intensity, but also showing several technical limits. On both sides you can see many long pitches, many balls thrown and to note the first action worthy of note you have to wait for the 26': on Herrera’s cross stands out well Vega, who catches Szczesny against time, but only grabs the post to the left of the Juventus goalkeeper. In the fraction final Mexico raises a lot of the center of gravity, but continues to make a lot of mistakes and the first half, on the whole really mediocre, closes at 0-0. At the beginning of the second half Martino’s team tries to raise the pace and crush that of Michniewicz in his own back, but the possession of Lozano and his team-mates remains very sterile and after a few minutes comes the joke: Moreno retains Lewandowski in the area (until then never in the game)The action continues, but as soon as it stops the referee Beath is recalled to the monitor and decides to assign the penalty to Poland. On the disk there is the same bomber of Barça, but he is hypnotized by Ochoa, who holds the game in a tie with a large rejection. The evening seems to be getting livelier and at 64' Szczesny responds to his colleague with a great speech about Martin’s header. Then, however, the fear of losing it takes over and the two teams end up settling for a point each at the end of a challenge really poor in interesting ideas. photo © Getty Images #qatar2022 #qatarworldcup #worldcup2022
