Watch Video: Barcelona’s Robert Lewandowski produced a lovely assist against Saudi Arabia as Poland takes the lead.
Robert Lewandowski, a famous player for Barcelona and the captain of Poland, has left his stamp on the FIFA World Cup 2022.
The 34-year-old was in the news earlier this week after his team’s opening match against Mexico when he missed a penalty. But today, the striker provided a wonderful assist that allowed Poland to take the lead against Saudi Arabia.

When a teammate brought the ball into the box, Lewandowski made a deft chip to get it away from the advancing Saudi Arabia goalie before dragging it back for Piotr Zielinski, who scored with a strong finish from close range.
Lewandowski’s quick movement and knowledge inside the area helped his Poland squad gain the upper hand after a stretch of persistent Saudi Arabia domination.
The 34-year-old, who provided an assist, will be looking to record his first World Cup goal shortly after finding the back of the net.
