Poland may blood youth
BARSINGHAUSEN, June 17: Poland could go for youth in their final Group A game with Costa Rica despite an improved performance in Wednesday's defeat by Germany.
“Some changes in personnel will probably be made,” assistant coach Maciej Skorza said on Saturday.
“It would be good to give some of the younger players experience of the World Cup.
“The team which played Germany certainly deserves to be recognised, they played with real commitment. But Costa Rica is a different team and it is possible we will pick different players to execute different tactics.”
After defeats by Germany and Ecuador, Poland and Costa Rica will play purely for pride in Hanover on Tuesday.
Skorza said defender Bartosz Bosacki was doubtful after being injured in 1-0 loss to Germany.
He returned to training on Saturday but could make way for Mariusz Jop, who missed the German tie through illness.—Reuters
