‘’Croatia is capable of great things with a team of stars playing in the biggest clubs. This is the most important match, and we hope to prepare for it against opponents similar to Croatia.
‘’So we will play Poland at home on March 23rd. We are looking for a second opponent in Europe for another FIFA date of the spring.’’
Also Polish Football Association president and former football great, Zbigniew Boniek confirmed the match.
He was quoted as saying by sport.dziennik.pl : ‘’In March, we will probably face Nigeria and South Korea. These teams somehow reflect the mentality and level of the teams we play in the group at the World Cup.
‘’Of course, Nigeria is not Senegal, but somewhere this mentality, the way they move on the pitch, physical strength are similar.‘’
