Croatia will be determined to avoid another consecutive defeat as they face Poland in their ongoing UEFA Nations League 2024-25 campaign. Both clubs should score goals in the Croatia vs Poland encounter on Sunday at the Opus Arena in Osijek.
The tournament has already begun for both teams. Croatia faced Portugal in an away match and unfortunately suffered a 1-2 defeat. Maybe the Croatians didn’t appear impressive in the first half. Overall, they had suffered losses. Portugal had a greater number of opportunities. Despite the circumstances, Croatia made a comeback in the game and scored a goal to make it 2-1. However, Dalot unintentionally scored an own goal, but also managed to find the back of the net for his own team. Matanovic had a moment in the end, but unfortunately, he missed the corner.
Poland, who recently defeated Scotland, will be the opponents. The Poles took an early lead of 2-0 but then faced a setback as they conceded two goals, and their opponents came dangerously close to making a comeback. However, the team secured their third goal through a penalty kick. Szymański netted a stunning goal, while Lewandowski and Zielinski found the back of the net from the penalty spot. The Poles put on an impressive performance throughout the match. The defensive standards were lacking, and there were issues with transitioning quickly from attack to defence. However, they were able to generate opportunities on their own. The Polish national team demonstrated their ongoing challenges but also showcased their talented players who can overcome any situation.
