Madrid: Polish striker Robert Lewandowski lauded the level of FIFA World Cup Qatar 2022 final, where Argentina beat holders France on penalties to win the trophy for the third time in their history.
Speaking to Spanish nationwide daily sports newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", Lewandowski said that Qatar tournament final was the best final game he has ever seen, because the tournament was held during the season instead of June, as the footballers were so exhausted by the end of the season making it impossible for them to play games at such a high level after the first 70 minutes.
Commenting on his satisfaction for the level he made with the Polish team, he confirmed that Poland succeeded to achieve goals in this World Cup, pointing out that his team played against France in the Round of 16. He added that his team lost to France and Argentina, who qualified for the final.
He said that it was possible to play better. However, his team made goals and this was good, indicating that it is early to decide whether he is going to play in the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Lewandowski pointed out that his focus is now turned to his participation in UEFA Euro 2024.
