Euro 2016: Germany 0-0 Poland - 5 talking points

Arkadiusz Milik Germany
Arkadiusz Milik fails to score from six yards out against Germany

#3 A formidable Poland

Michal Pazdan
An uncompromising backline helped Poland get a valuable point

Whilst, many will point out the disjointedness of the German team for their ineffective showing on Thursday night, one should take nothing away from their opponents for shackling throughout the game. Poland seems to be a team that has little flaw. While they might not be as expansive as many of the other fancied teams in the competition, Adam Nawalka has sculpted a well-drilled machine where everyone puts a shift in.

Right from their superstar striker Robert Lewandowski at the front to the unfancied Michal Pazdan, everyone did a job. In fact, it took 136 minutes for an opponent to have a shot on target against them. And if Arkadiusz Milik had taken his chances, we would have been looking at a whole new script at the moment.

The Poles, who were one of the dark horses coming into the tournament, may have just announced themselves on the big stage.
