Jan Urban, the head coach of Poland, has voiced his contentment with how his team performed against the Super Eagles of Nigeria, according to reports. The match, an international friendly held at the 58,000-seat Stadion PGE Narodowy in Warsaw on Wednesday night, ended in a 2-2 stalemate.
Nigeria struck first in the 23rd minute through a simple tap-in by Terem Moffi, after Poland had dominated the early stages. However, the hosts responded just before halftime when Kacper Potuski found the net to level the score. The Super Eagles regained the advantage in the 76th minute when Paul Onuachu converted a penalty, but Poland refused to back down. Deep into stoppage time, Przemyslaw Wiśniewski unleashed a superb strike to earn his side a share of the spoils.
Reflecting on the encounter, Urban acknowledged a recurring pattern in his team’s matches, where they play well but concede goals. He emphasized that he was not overly worried because Poland played well overall. Urban remarked that it was a quality contest against a strong opponent, noting that his team performed positively both before and after conceding. He was quoted by laczynaspilka.pl as saying, ‘The scenario from the previous matches repeated itself – we played, the opponent scored. But I wasn’t concerned because we played well. And we played well after the goal. It was a good match against a good team.’
