Big European league seasons have barely begun, and already Polish players are having an impact. Discussing this as well as Polish teams in Europe, a pair of transfer rumours and more: https://t.co/U6S58nPQNN

A backward step in Europe (for the time being), Lewandowski bagging his first MLS goals and Reguła to Dortmund? This week’s article: https://t.co/1O0fSRYUe9

Lots to discuss as EkstraklasaExports returns from summer hiatus! Significant transfers of Polish players, dominant European performances and last but very much not least, the return of the Ekstraklasa: https://t.co/rAfubVpCXg

Thoughts on Lewandowski’s transfer to Chicago Fire and the MLS, and specifically the context around what this means regarding his still unclear situation with the Polish national side: https://t.co/uIWIOYXOoo

Writing a little about the increased negativity (again) around Poland. Working out the pros and cons of the last week here: https://t.co/FWOIe6pzMr

#POLNGA A bit of pride rescued by an incredible goal, but equally a lot to be frustrated by for Poland: https://t.co/qSjNdu9RQ7

rankles as it very much seemed a less clear one to award compared to the non-penalty on Kędziora a few days ago. Much to discuss, and to improve for Poland before the autumn. (2/2) #POLNGA

FT Poland 2-2 Nigeria. Wiśniewski, scoring in an extremely unlikely manner with the last kick of the game, salvaged some pride for Poland. Unfortunately there were a lot of similarities in a negative way to Sunday’s loss, although the awarding of the penalty (1/2) #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Goal! Wiśniewski scores with mere seconds left from about 35 yards! I’m in a state of shock, and I imagine I’m not the only one. 2-2! #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Pietuszewski and Czubak replace Zalewski and Zieliński. Barely any of the 90 minutes left, but should be a reasonable chunk of stoppage time. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Two point blank chances for Poland stopped by Okoye in the Nigerian goal. On comes Kiwior for Potulski, who has played very well all things considered. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

1-2, just over ten minutes to go. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

VAR check resulting in a penalty for Nigeria. Debatable, especially in light of the context of a very clear penalty not given in Sunday’s friendly. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Lewandowski pounces on a poor back pass but can’t connect properly with the ball. Really poor, he had all the time in the world #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

On come Kozłowski and Wojtuszek for Szymański and Świderski #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Onuachu, by far the tallest player on the pitch, is unmarked and heads wide. A warning for Poland, followed up by another as there is some pinball in the box after Wiśniewski is easily beaten. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Second half starts with a number of changes for Nigeria, but none for Poland. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

HT Poland 1-1 Nigeria. Lots of similarities to the game on Sunday, the key difference being that Poland were able to score the second goal of the match. However, Poland have not been efficient in attack and the goal they did concede was avoidable, so symptoms persisting. #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Goal for Poland! Potulski equalises with the second phase of a corner, as the ball is pulled back across and all he had to do was stick a foot out. 1-1! #POLNGA

[Ekstraklasa Exports @ekstraklasaexp]

Zalewski with a speculative swing at a bouncing ball from range, which wasn’t the worst effort #POLNGA
