Poland won their second game at the World Cup beating Saudi Arabia 2-0 on Saturday.
Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny made crucial saves throughout the match.
Starting off with a brilliant save against a shot by Mohammed Kanno, he was also able to keep out a penalty.
In the dying minutes of the first half, Saudi Arabia were awarded a penalty for a foul on Saleh Al Shehri after a VAR check. However, the spot kick was saved by Szczesny before sending a follow-up shot over the bar.
After a cross from the left, Saudi Arabia’s Al Dawsari took a shot but Szczesny managed to keep it out once again.
In the 82nd minute, Robert Lewandowski took the lead further by scoring a second goal to round off the win.
