Asked at a press conference about the five-time Ballon d’Or, the FC Barcelona striker was very complimentary. “ He made football history, no one can take that away from him. Throughout my career I’ve looked at him and tried to get closer of him, sometimes even to surpass him. Portugal has many great players. I have already played with some of them in the past »confessed the native of Warsaw.

Cristiano Ronaldo, a model for Lewandowski

And the former Bayern Munich goalkeeper continued:

“Portugal is playing at a high level, we have to live up to it. Last month in Croatia, some things were not working within our team (Poland lost 1-0). We want to improve because we could have reacted differently at certain times. We have room for improvement. We are obviously not going to be afraid. »

In Group A of the Nations League, Portugal is alone in the lead with six points in two days. Poland is in third place, with three units on the clock.
