World Cup 2018: 8 players who disappointed in Russia

Robert Lewandowski (ST: Poland/Bayern Munich)

Lewandowski's Poland fell short of expectation in a tough Group H

A group consisting of Japan, Senegal and Colombia was one of the most evenly balanced in the tournament but Poland were expected to beat the likes of Japan and Senegal to a place in the round of sixteen. This relied heavily on their all-time top goalscorer, Robert Lewandowski, to find the back of the net but this was not the case.

Despite playing every minute of Poland’s World Cup campaign, Bayern's goal machine didn’t manage a single one. An unexpectedly poor performance from the man who managed a record-breaking 16 goals in World Cup qualification and 41 goals for Bayern Munich in all competitions.
