Poland's Goal-Scoring Struggles at the UEFA European Championship

A History of Low Scoring

Despite boasting one of the world's best strikers in Robert Lewandowski, Poland has struggled to score goals at the UEFA European Championship. In 15 matches at the tournament, Poland have only managed to score more than once in a single game once - a 3-2 defeat to Sweden in EURO 2012.

Reasons for the Struggles

There are several factors that may have contributed to Poland's goal-scoring woes at the Euros.

• Lack of creativity: Poland often struggles to create clear-cut chances for their attackers. They tend to rely on individual brilliance, which can be inconsistent at the highest level.
• Defensive focus: Opponents often employ defensive tactics against Poland, making it difficult for them to break through. Lewandowski is often isolated up front and receives little support from his teammates.
• Poor finishing: Poland have also struggled to finish their chances at the Euros. They have often spurned good opportunities and failed to convert their possession into goals.

Can Poland Improve in Euro 2024?

Poland will be hoping to improve their goal-scoring record in Euro 2024. With Lewandowski still leading the line, they have the potential to be a threat to any team. However, they will need to address the issues that have hindered them in the past if they want to make a deep run in the tournament.
