Read MoreThe last few years have introduced something new to Polish football. The first coach who was not a footballer and the fact that he is younger than the veterans of the Ekstraklasa pitches. Looking at many European clubs that are significant in cups and their leagues, you can see that even legendary footballers after hanging up their boots take over the coaching reins of their club.

Read MoreThis Friday, the Poles will start the qualifiers for the 2026 World Cup. Lithuania is the first to go. So far, the Poles have played 11 matches with Lithuania and, interestingly, all of them were friendly matches. After Friday's match, there will only be 2 teams in Europe with whom we have not played a match for stakes: Liechtenstein and Kosovo - the history here is very poor, only 1 match in total. Somehow it happened that for years, fate did not want to associate us and the Lithuanians. Now that has changed. In this post, I would like to present the history of all 11 matches with Lithuania so far and roughly present their course. Here is an overview of these matches.

It is a picture of misery and despair that should make the Lechia authorities tighten their belts and desperately try to save the situation. But no – Lechia has a different plan. They are packing their bags and flying to a training camp in Dubai. Yes, you read that right: to Dubai.
