About Poland in World Cup history
This will be Poland's ninth World Cup appearance. The red and white side had their debut back in 1938, when they were only able to play one game to end their first run in the competition. The team was not able to qualify until 1974, when they managed to conclude the tournament in third place. Eight years later, the Orly would go on to repeat that feat, but their recent appearances in the tournament have ended in disappointing group stage exits, such as the one they experienced in 2018.
Who is Poland's coach for the 2022 FIFA World Cup?
Former player Czesław Michniewicz will be in charge of the team's tactics for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. The coach made a name for himself with Polish sides such as Lech Poznan, Widzew Lodz, and Legia Warsaw, a team where he won the Polish Ekstraklasa title. He was chosen as the replacement to former manager Paulo Sousa, who abandoned the team just three months before their first FIFA World Cup playoff match. His contract is set to expire by the end of the year, and it is safe to say that his fate as Polish boss will have a lot to do with how the team performs in Qatar.
Poland's expectations ahead of the 2022 FIFA World Cup
The Polish side is by no means a favorite to win the World Cup, but they could be categorized as a "dark horse" if they can get past the first round. The Orly will find some stiff competition in Group C, where Mexico and Argentina will be the teams to beat for them if they want to make it to the next round. If they can manage to enter the Round of 16, it will be a good competition for Poland, who have only made it to a decisive stage of an international tournament in the 2016 edition of the UEFA Euro.
Poland: Key players for the 2022 FIFA World Cup
It is no secret that Poland's hopes for success will be based on what Robert Lewandowski can do on the pitch. The striker is the team's all-time top scorer and most capped player, and any option to reach the key stages of this competition will have him playing a key role.
The second most relevant footballer in the team will be none other than Grzegorz Krychowiak. The talented midfielder will be used to playing in Qatar's extreme weather after his experiences with Saudi Arabia's Al-Shabab, and with 93 games played for the national team, Krychowiak's skills will come in handy to team up with Lewandowski and wreak havoc among enemy defenders.
Last, but not least, Juventus' goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny will be crucial to stop talented strikers that will want to damage the team's net. The bianconeri footballer has had his ups and downs with the Polish side, but there is no better man to be under the sticks for the red and white side, even if his speed is not what it used to be in the past.

Poland's 2022 FIFA World Cup schedule
Poland has been drawn in Group C along with Argentina, Mexico, and Saudi Arabia. The most anticipated game for them will come when the Orly lock horns with Argentina, a match that will be held on November 30. Nevertheless, the crucial match for them will be held on November 22, in what should be a nail-biter against Mexico with the runner-up spot in the group up for grabs.
