Poland on the verge of World Cup qualification after beating Armenia
22:43
Poland beat Armenia 6:1 in an away game in the second to last World Cup qualifying round. Robert Lewandowski scored three goals to become Poland's all-time highest scorer beating Włodzimierz Lubański. Kamil Grosicki, Rafał Wolski and Jakub Błaszczykowski scored one each. Hovhannes Hambardzumyan scored the only goal for the hosts.
Despite the win, Polish team did not secure the qualification and will need a draw in the last game, in Warsaw against Montenegro to advance to the World Cup tournament.
Before the last round of games, Poland sits quite comfortably atop Group E, followed by Denmark, which has three points less, and Montenegro with six points behind. Only the winners of the groups will qualify for the next year’s World Cup tournament to be held in Russia, with teams from the second places playing for the qualification in the play-off round.
If Polish team advances, it will be its first World Cup showing since 2006
