Poland co-hosted the Euro championships in the year 2008 along with Ukraine, and then in 2012 along with Cardiff, Wales, and Ukraine. But on both the occasions they failed to add any glory and hence, finished on the last spot in the group stages. However, Poland’s hopes in the EURO-2016 will mostly rely on the Bayern Munich star forward Robert Lewandowski, Grzegorz Krychowiak, who plays for the Spanish club Sevilla as a defensive midfielder, Jakub Blaszczykowski, the winger for the Italian club Fiorentina, and Wojciech Szczesny, who is currently playing as a goalkeeper for AS Roma. Meanwhile, the Bayern Munich striker, Lewandowski has scored 30 goals in 29 Bundesliga appearances for the club last season, and also has been the top scorer in the Euro -2016 qualifying campaign, scoring 13 goals for Poland, four more than Thomas Muller, who scored nine for Germany. Since Poland doesn’t have a great history in football at the major football events, despite that, this time, they are being considered as the dark horses with the capacity to carve their way deep into the tournament, and will try their best to register a quarter-finals berth.
