history

The first game not taken into account by FIFA was played against Italy on June 27, 1981 in Catania and ended 3-0. The first international match recognized by FIFA took place eight years later, on June 21, 1989 in Sardinia against the USA and ended 0-0. It was the only game against the USA to date.

In qualifying for the 2011 World Cup , the team faced Ukraine , Hungary , Romania and Bosnia and Herzegovina . The decision about the group victory was only made in the last game between Poland and Ukraine, although a draw in Ukraine would have been enough for the Poles to make it into the playoffs. The Poles also took the lead 1-0, but the Ukrainians were able to turn the game around in the second half and reach the playoff round with a 3-1 with the lowest number of points of all group winners, in which they also failed.

In the FIFA world rankings, the team has fluctuated between 27th and 34th place in recent years. It is currently ranked 31st.

In January 2011 there were two notable nominations at the official level. On January 11, 2011, Roman Jaszczak was appointed head coach to succeed Robert Góralczyk ; Remigiusz Trawiński has held the newly created position of manager since January 25, 2011 . Jaszczak is the founder, head coach and president of the long-standing Polish top club in women's football, Medyk Konin , and for Trawiński the same applies to the current Polish champions RTP Unia Racibórz . Both remain loyal to their clubs in all functions for the time being.

In qualifying for the European Championship 2013 , the team met in Group 1 against Italy , Russia , Bosnia and Herzegovina , Greece and Macedonia . The decision about second place was only made in the last game between Poland and Russia, whereby a draw was enough for the Russians to move into the playoffs, while the Poles had to win in Moscow. The Poles also took a 1-0 lead just before the half-time break, but the Russians were able to equalize in the second half and thus reach the playoff games of the group runners-up.

In February 2013, Roman Jaszczak was replaced as national coach by Wojciech Basiuk , who previously coached the U-19s.
