The Juventus goalkeeper was confident before the launch and eliminated the hopes of the best in the world.

After saving the penalty against the PSG striker, the Pole was congratulated by his teammates and pointed to the VAR, because the foul was doubtful, but the central judge decided to whistle Szczesny's blow to the '10' of the Albiceleste.

Poland, Szczesny and no one else:

Poland's approach is purely defensive, with Robert Lewandowski trying to surprise the defense made up of Nicolás Otamendi and Cristian Romero. Goalkeeper Szczesny has been the main figure, since he covered Leo's penalty, a shot from the left sector of '10' and a corner kick that was almost Olympic from Ángel Di María.
