JAKARTA - Poland striker Robert Lewandowski has revealed playing real football and creating plenty of chances was the key that allowed Poland to hold off against Spain's draw in their Euro 2020 Group E match in Sevilla, Sunday 20 June.

"We played very well. We still made mistakes both in defense and attack, but it looked much better than against Slovakia," Lewandowski told UEFA's website.

"Why? I think in the first half we wanted to play pure football and create a lot of chances," continued Lewandowski as reported by Antara.

He continued, "We were focused on that and the other parts didn't work. We already knew against Spain we had to focus more on defense, and we did that very well."

Regarding the chances of the match against Sweden later, Lewandowski admits his team is not seeded like most teams in Euro 2020.

"We will not be favourites. Sweden have very good players and the match will be very tough. But it will be ready, and this match against Spain really gives us a lot," said the Polish mainstay player.
