When a match like this ends, different feelings are experienced. The dissatisfaction for the loss is intertwined with the desire for victory, the enthusiasm for the inspiring fight and the fast game in the most dramatic moments when we were so close to score with the regret that the next game reflects without nerve and thought. Of course in a football match you can try so much, even with more positive and negative emotions, but in the end all these, after confronting each other, come out on a path, which in the end is not the evaluation of the match. For the meeting with the Polish team, winner of the 3rd place in the last world championship, our team had its own claims, and not without grounds. Our chances for a future qualifying match were completely real. And we are not asking too much when we make this claim: the demand for a new quality must be accompanied by the growth of the game and the authority of the national team, which is the one who has brought us the joys of these claims.

The Polish Team
Let's take a quick look at the match. A fast start and an ideal opportunity for Minga in the 2nd minute. Unprepared reluctance for the created circumstance and certainly cannot be scored. Later the game will be equalized to come to the 24th minute when Boniek after receiving a masterfully ball from Urban, shoots hard and 1-0! Defender's mistake, the goalkeeper? Even more the merits of the great Polish player!

| The joy of the Polish players at the moment of scoring the goal |
A few minutes after this strike, our footballers will reveal all the strength and beauty of our football, which for 15 minutes deeply corroded the Polish team. Josa shook the crossbar of Mlynarczyk in the 34th minute, Demollari in front of the goal unguarded shoots out (?!), And later Kola and Minga fail to address the ball in the unguarded net. So were the most beautiful minutes of the match, which inspired the realization of the request in the second half. And it started exactly under the same sound of our attack, but that gradually comes to an end to release the game suddenly completely in the 70th minute, without any sign of improvement. So in this flow it goes towards that unwanted end. It is true that for a long time our national team was not defeated by the opponent, did not get stuck in defense, on the contrary played with an attacking accent and in search of a positive result. Equally convincing and unforgettable are 15-20 minutes fiery play of our footballers, who disoriented the opponent. It seems, like does not enough minutes to our team of good play to be effective. It takes at least twice as many such forces, or more persuasion, ingenuity, intelligence, fantasy, endurance to face such matches at such qualifying heights. It is different just to play, and different to play to qualify for the World Cup. For such levels much more serious preparation is required. ......
