Lewandowski accuses trial of disrespect - resignation shocks Poland!

Helsinki, Finnland - Robert Lewandowski announced his resignation from the Polish national team today on June 11, 2025. This decision comes as a shocking turn, especially after the humiliation, which he experienced by the withdrawal of the captain's armband of coach Michal Tasty. In a phone call, the content of which was published by the Polish Association, Lewandowski expressed that after 17 years he felt inappropriate and had lost confidence in the coach. The striker emphasized that he was not concerned with the captain's armband, but about the disrespectful approach he experienced. He therefore does not see his future in the national team as long as the coach remains.

"I wish my successor Piotr Zielinski every success," said Lewandowski, who made it clear that he was not against the national team. Before he resigned, he had already agreed on a World Cup qualification break. Lewandowski believes that tried to give the media pressure, which led to his retreat. He also rejected rumors that he had criticized the coaching staff after a game against Malta, and described the claim that players had opposed him as wrong. After the announcement of his cancellation, several teammates contacted him to change him, but Lewandowski remains disappointed with this decision, but looks positively into the future.

defeat against Finland

Finland now leads Group G with seven points, while the Netherlands take second place due to two wins from two games. Poland, on the other hand, is in third place after three games with six points. Only the group's most qualifies directly for the World Cup, the group second has the chance of the playoffs. The current form of the Polish national team and the uncertainty about the job security of coach Trys raise questions. This could have long -term consequences for the qualitative development of Polish football.
