Poland and Nigeria will do battle Friday night in front of a sold-out stadium in Wroclaw, SCORENigeria reports. “The 42,000 tickets for this game have been sold out, the company responsible for this has announced,” top Polish journalist Piotr Kozminski informed SCORENigeria “There is high expectation around the team leading to the World Cup in Russia and it will be a major disappointment if they do not go past a first round group that also has Colombia, Senegal and Japan.
“The Polish FA boss, Zbigniew Boniek, a famous player in his playing days, said he expects Poland not to lose their opening game against Senegal and for Colombia and Poland go through.” Poland will use Nigeria to test their readiness to battle in midfield against the robust-playing Senegalese. And four days later, they will take on another World Cup qualifier South Korea so as to prepare for their group game against Japan.
