Poland will face Albania in the play-off final on March 26, and after the draw, coach Jan Urban spoke. He, along with a delegation from the Polish Football Association, attended the ceremony at FIFA headquarters in Zurich, Switzerland.
" Of course, we can't complain. We are playing our first match at home against Albania and we are favorites. I'm not afraid to say that. Of course, anything can happen in the first match, but we are playing at home and we have to use this advantage to reach the final ," the coach told the Meczyki channel.
The coach knows the Albanian team and is happy to have time to analyze it...
" A lot of players play in the Italian league. Silvino is a player who comes from a technical background. That's how they play. We will analyse them. We have enough time for that. Four months in football is a long time. Neither I nor the other coaches know completely what players they will have available ," he adds.
He also didn't want to evade the answer regarding the second semi-final. Ukraine will play against Sweden, and if Poland wins their match, they will have to compete away in the final...
" It would have been a lot of luck. We could have had a worse result in that first semi-final. It would have been pure luck to play another game at home. We'll see who wins that second semi-final. Let's put it this way, if we want to go to the World Cup and play a good game there, we have to go there and win, no matter who we play against ," Urban admits.
