Can’t be a draw
The team of our hearts, led by Robert Lewandowski, is against the team of Lionel Messi, one of the best football players in the history of the match. Group C leaders Poland and Argentina have already made life quite difficult for themselves in Qatar. The Argentines, generally regarded as one of the main contenders of the World Cup, lost sensationally in the first match of the tournament to Saudi Arabia (1:2), then rehabilitated and retained their chances, of course beating Mexico. reach the playoffs. The Poles also failed to win the first match of the championship with a draw with the Mexicans (0:0), but they are leaders in the standings thanks to their victory over the Saudis in the second round. Future opponents will not be able to play the world and reach the playoffs at the same time. And if Poland agrees to the draw, then the Argentines are dependent on a parallel match. It will be the Arabs who will go even further with the victory of Saudi Arabia and one of the Poland-Argentina duo will be excluded from the tournament. So, if Messi is still aiming to win the World Cup, Albiceleste needs to win the last match of the group stage.
Prediction from Parimatch Ukraine
Parimatch Ukraine experts predict an easy victory for Argentina. A coefficient of 1.49 was determined for the success of the South Americans. But Poland’s chance to win is 7.80 to 1. A draw is also unlikely – 4.20 to 1. Most likely, one goal will be enough for the Argentines to win. 1:0 – The score expected by the experts of the first legal bookmaker. The coefficient is 5.50.
And such calculations are quite objective. Although Poland qualified for the World Cup for the second time in a row, they are now quite an old team in the squad with experienced, but less influential Szczesny, Glik, Krychowiak, Klich. And if 34-year-old Robert Lewandowski can really score, then the team obviously can’t reach his level. Judging by Cheslav Mikhnevich’s tactical plans in previous World Cup matches, even he doesn’t quite believe in his team’s offensive potential.
But Argentina grew stronger in four years, corrected its weaknesses and at the same time protected its god. Last year, the Argentines, already led by Scaloni, won the Copa America for the first time in 30 years, qualifying for the 2022 World Cup undefeated.
Opposition statistics
Poland and Argentina have played each other 11 times. The advantage is on the “albiseleste” side – 6 wins against 3 for the “squads”. The last time the teams faced each other in a friendly match in Warsaw in 2011, the Poles won 2:1. At the World Championships, these teams competed in 1974 and 1978. In the first case Poland won (3:2), in the second – Argentina (2:0).
We’re in for a big game and maybe for some legends like Lewandowski or Messi, this will be the last game in the world championships. This fight should not be missed. Free audio streaming of all World Cup 2022 matches only on the Parimatch website!

Shevchenko made statements about the Ukraine-Sweden match in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers
UAF President Andrey Shevchenko He talked about the match against the Swedish national team in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
“When we were drawn against Sweden we probably faced our toughest opponent. I have great respect for Swedish football, you have always had good national teams and great players.”
“It’s always difficult to face Scandinavian teams, even though you don’t qualify for the World Cup, because you have so much quality, character and identity. This is similar to us to some extent. I don’t think there are favourites. In the end it all depends on the details, the injury situation and the preparations,” said Shevchenko.
In case of victory, Ukraine will play with the winner of the Poland-Albania doubles for a ticket to the World Cup. Ukraine will play the final match at home on March 31, again conditionally.
In addition to the 12 teams that finished second in their groups, the 4 winners of the Nations League quartet will also participate in the play-offs. All 16 participants are divided into 4 paths. Each route will include a semi-final and a final. The semi-finals will be held on March 26, and the finals will be held on March 31, 2026.

National team’s home matches abroad: Shevchenko surprises with spending figures
UAF President Andrey Shevchenko He pointed out the significant financial costs of organizing the Ukrainian national team’s “home” matches outside the country.
“Hosting such meetings costs us an enormous amount of money and we are deprived of the opportunity to assemble a full stadium. In fact, the cost of a so-called home match at a neutral venue costs around five times more than a regular match.”
Our sponsors are located in a country where the struggle continues, so their financial resources are seriously limited.
I cannot approach the government with requests for additional funding.
We are forced to work tightly within the available budget and rely on the support of private donors, especially when it comes to social initiatives,” the UAF president told Dagens Nyheter.
During the current year, the Ukrainian national team played its official home matches in stadiums in Spain and Poland.

Martinez explains why Ronaldo is still irreplaceable in the national team
Head coach of the Portuguese national team Roberto Martinez He explained why Cristiano Ronaldo continues to play an important role in the national team.
– There is always a lot of talk around Cristiano Ronaldo. Why does he remain the undisputed starter for the Portuguese national team, even though he will soon be 41?
“It’s all about his attitude towards the profession.” We constantly evaluate three key factors: talent level, accumulated experience and the contribution a player can make to the national team.
Making the highest demands on himself for the benefit of the team allows the captain to maintain his place in the squad. His desire to be the best is passed on to his partners. “The 25 goals he scored in 30 matches as a striker confirms that his play brings tangible benefits to the national team,” he said.
