Lewandowski’s last chance to play on the grandest platform in international soccer may come in the 2022 World Cup, which itself is scheduled to take place in November & December. However, Bayern Munich striker, who won the Best FIFA Men’s Player award in 2020 and 2021, has endorsed the Polish FA’s position.
Robert Lewandowski, the captain of Poland, has supported his team’s decision to boycott the next match against Russia. On March 24, Russia was scheduled to face Poland in a World Cup qualify semifinal for qualifications.
But Cezary Kulesza, the president of the Polish FA, said that squad will not be participating in the contest. Vladimir Putin’s declaration of war and aggressive invasion of Ukraine prompted Kulesza to take this position.
Thousands of Ukrainian citizens had fled to neighboring Poland in search of safety as the number of deaths has already surpassed triple digits. In a tweet, Lewandowski stated: “It was the perfect choice! In light of the ongoing military aggression in Ukraine, I find it impossible to contemplate competing with the Russian National Team. This is not the fault of Russian football players or supporters, but we cannot act as if nothing is wrong.”
UEFA had mandated 24 hours before that all home matches between Russian and Ukrainian teams and teams from other nations must be played at neutral sites outside of Ukraine and Russia up until further notice.
Additionally, the 2022 Champions League final was moved from St. Petersburg’s Krestovsky Stadium towards Paris’ Stade de France by Europe’s football governing body.
