Germany reunion lifts Poland's spirits

A game against neighbours Germany – who they also met in qualifying – is the stand-out fixture for a Poland side determined to make it through a challenging Group C.

Reaction
Adam Nawałka, Poland coach
We knew that there was nothing we could do about the draw, so that's why we are so calm. Our group should be regarded as a strong one. These are top teams, like Germany, one of the best sides in the world in recent years, and obviously the world champions.

Northern Ireland and Ukraine are also good teams, and still developing. They are playing better and better football. So no doubt every game will be a challenge for us. Our aim is always to make it to the knockout stage.

Robert Lewandowski, Poland forward
It's a good draw. We will give Ukraine, Northern Ireland and, of course, Germany a good fight as we aim to reach the next round.
