Barcelona star Robert Lewandowski expressed his frustration at Poland's 3-1 loss in the UEFA Nations League against Portugal.
Poland were outclassed by the Portuguese in Warsaw as Lewandowski struggled to make an impact in the hosts' attack.
Despite entering the final years of his career, Lewandowski remained committed to the national tam cause, but was on the run full time.
The veteran forward's main annoyance came because of what his teammates asked of him away from the forward line.
Lewandowski's brilliant start to the 2024/25 season at club level it was based on his predatory instinct to score goals in the box and he knows that is his strength.
“I'm not a midfielder and my job is not to go down to receive the ball in my own half. I can do this in training,” as quotes from The newspaper AS.
“In games, I have to stay near the box and wait for crosses and balls to come to me until something happens. This is something we need to improve or change, not only against Portugal.
“They don't seem to have the ball near the opponents' box and my role is to try to get something there.”
Next up for Lewandowski and Poland is a home clash with Croatia on October 15 and he is expected to lead the home team again.
This is followed by a quick return to club action with Barcelona hosing Seville on October 20.
