Malta Lose To Poland Away From Home

In their much anticipated World Cup qualifying match, Malta lost to Poland away from even though they put together a spirited performance.

In this match Malta relied on counter attacks much more than their previous match against Finland, where they dominated possession despite losing.

The strength of the Polish team which featured the likes of Moder and Piatek and later on in the match Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski was simply too much for the Maltese team to handle, despite their never give up attitude.

It was a night to remember for Polish striker Karol Świderski, who managed to score a brace to give his country the win.

Players such as Teddy Teuma, Matthew Guillaimeur and Ilyas Chouaref showed their ability, threatening the Poles on numerous occasions.

The game was unfortunately made worse for Malta in the dying minutes of the game, with star player Ilyas Chouaref getting sent off for an unlucky challenge.

Attention now turns to Malta’s crucial upcoming fixtures: a must-win home clash against Lithuania and a tough away test against European giants, the Netherlands, in June.
