Defending champions suffered a shock defeat to Tunisia, but finished at top of the group due to superior goal difference.
Poland are appearing at the World Cup round of 16 for the first time since 1986.
France are unbeaten in their last 5 h2h games against Poland with 2 wins and 3 draws.
Didier Deschamps may have learned a thing or two after the defeat against Tunisia. Their fringe players are not good enough and complacency is going to cost them dear in defending the title.
The 1-0 defeat to the North Africans did no damage, thanks to the 4-1 win against Australia on matchday 1 which helped them to top spot in Group D
However, it will be the right time to go back to the drawing board and make a few tactical tweaks as they are up against a defensive minded team. Also, remind the players of what happened during the European Championship last summer when a moderate Switzerland struck twice late in the game to knock the star studded Blues out of the competition.
Poland have this far managed to pose minimal threat to their three opponents at the World Cup and must consider themselves lucky to have Scenzny in their ranks who single handedly rallied the team to the knockouts on superior goal difference.
The Eagles have far too many problems in the middle of the park and are thus dominated by opponents in each of the three group games.
Creating chances remains a big problem for Czeslaw Michniewicz’s side. This perfectly explains why a lethal striker like Robert Lewandowski is ineffective in the final third.




译文(自动翻译仅供参考):

卫冕冠军遭遇突尼斯的惨败，但由于净胜球优势，最终以小组第一的身份出线。
波兰队自1986年以来首次进入世界杯16强。
法国队在最近5场对阵波兰队的比赛中取得2胜3平的不败战绩。
迪迪埃·德尚可能在输给突尼斯之后学到了一两件事。他们的边缘球员不够好，自满会让他们在卫冕中付出高昂的代价。
0 -1输给北非队并没有造成什么影响，因为他们在第一天的比赛中4-1战胜了澳大利亚队，帮助他们获得了D组第一的位置
然而，当他们面对的是一支防守意识很强的球队时，这将是回到画板上做一些战术调整的最佳时机。同时，提醒球员们在去年夏天的欧洲杯上发生了什么，温和的瑞士队在比赛的最后阶段梅开二度，将众星云集的蓝军淘汰出局。
到目前为止，波兰队对他们在世界杯上的三个对手的威胁很小，他们必须认为自己很幸运，因为他们的队伍中有斯恩茨尼，他凭借强大的净胜球帮助球队打进淘汰赛。
老鹰队在中场有太多的问题，因此在三场小组赛中都被对手所控制。
创造机会仍然是切斯瓦夫·米契尼维茨球队的大问题。这很好地解释了为什么像罗伯特·莱万多夫斯基这样致命的前锋在最后三分之一时是无效的。
