"Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski was on target for Poland on Sunday night as Jan Urban's side beat Lituania 2-0 in World Cup qualifying. The 37-year-old was rested for Poland's friendly win over New Zealand last time out but was back in the starting XI for the game in Kaunas. Poland took the lead directly from a corner in the 15th minute when Sebastian Szymanski scored an Olimpico to hand his side the lead."
"Szymanski then turned provider as he crossed for Lewandowski to power a header home just after the hour mark to double Poland's lead. The goal is Lewandowski's sixth of the season for club and country and is good news for the striker ahead of his return to Barcelona. Hansi Flick's side are due to return to action against Girona next weekend and will be eager to get back to winning ways after defeats to PSG and Sevilla."
Robert Lewandowski scored as Poland defeated Lithuania 2-0 in World Cup qualifying. Sebastian Szymanski opened the scoring with an Olimpico from a 15th-minute corner. Szymanski later assisted Lewandowski, who powered a header just after the hour mark to double the lead. The goal represents Lewandowski's sixth of the season across club and country and arrives ahead of his return to Barcelona. Barcelona face Girona next weekend as they seek to recover from recent defeats. Several key Barcelona players are doubtful, potentially leaving Lewandowski in line for another start.
