Mexico and Poland settled for a scoreless draw on Tuesday. Mexico domiinated possession of the ball, and tried to attack out wide, featuring their wingers running at Poland’s back line, while Poland was content to absorb pressure in an effort to quickly counter. Winger Hirving Lozano provided strong service on the flanks but was unable to create a magic moment.
The moment of the match came in the 58th minute when Polan’ds Robert Lewandowski was pulled down in the box. Mexico’s hero of the moment, however, was Guillermo Ochoa after the goalkeeper made a big penalty save on Lewandowski attempt from the spot. Lewandowski is still on the hunt for his first goal in a World Cup.
The two teams were unable to capitalize on an opportunity to stake their place in Group C despite the door being blown open earlier in the day Saudia Arabia upset Argentina moving the Saudi’s on top of the group after the group all completed their first matches.
