has decided that the team will be suspended and will therefore not be able to take part in the promotion play-offs in Qatar. This is, of course, a reaction to the attack by the Russian armed forces on. The squad of “Sborna” had to face the Poles on March 24 in Moscow. Therefore, she also had to decide what to do with the match of our team, which was left without an opponent.
Adam Nawałka responds to the critical comments of the Swedes. “It is always the case that the decision will not satisfy everyone”
Ultimately, it was decided that the Poles would receive a bye and would be promoted directly to the final of the play-off. In it, on March 29, they will face the winner of the pair -. The Swedes did not like this solution. .
– We made it clear and in contact with FIFA we informed about how we look at the upcoming play-offs. We believe that in terms of sport, it would be most reasonable and just if Poland got a new rival in the semi-finals. The principle should be to play under the same conditions, i.e. to play and win two matches. Now Poland will gain an advantage in the final of the play-offs, stated the secretary general of the Swedish federation Hakan Sjoestrand after the announcement of FIFA’s decision.
He was also seconded by the coach of the Three Crowns national team. “FIFA’s decision is right for Russia, but totally inappropriate from a sporting point of view,” said Janne Andersson.
He referred to the words of the Swedes in an interview. The former coach of the Polish national team does not understand the Scandinavians’ indignation. – But Russia has excluded itself from the game. And that decided everything. It is always the case that the decision will not satisfy everyone – stated the author of the greatest successes of “Biało-Czerwony” in recent years.
– The Swedes have their opinion, and the Czechs do not react at all, because for them it is obvious that Poland has been given a free fate. The Slovaks said that they would respect every FIFA decision, and if they are to play with the Poles – they are ready – he added.
A few weeks ago, Adam Nawa³ka was one of the most serious candidates for the position of selector when he suddenly resigned. However, the choice fell on. Nawałka is convinced that he will fulfill his duties perfectly and will prepare our players well for the fight for the World Cup.
– In this specific situation, we will have more invaluable time and peace to prepare the team. The coach will have more training units and, importantly, one control match. It is obvious that the analysis of both our potential rivals in the final match has to be prepared. I believe that coach Michniewicz will not neglect any details and will do everything to make us go to Qatar – assessed Nawałka.
They will play a friendly on March 24. .
