Poland Succumbs 2-0 to Ukraine in Emotional Friendly
Poland fell 2-0 to Ukraine in Wrocław, with goals from Roman Yaremchuk in the 34th minute and Andriy Yarmolenko ten minutes later. Both strikes came before half-time. The match carried extra emotion after the sudden death of assistant coach Jacek Magiera on April 10. Players warmed up wearing shirts bearing his photograph, an empty seat beside coach Jan Urban held his shirt, and fans observed a minute of applause. Robert Lewandowski made a national record 166th appearance and remains Poland’s all-time top scorer with 89 goals. Poland now turn their attention to a friendly against Nigeria’s Super Eagles in Warsaw, hoping to reverse their recent run of defeats.
