Friendly International .........Costa Rica-Poland

The first friendly of the World Cup, as both teams are going home after this match. Poland showed more fight against Germany and will want to give their vast army of fans, something to cheer. Costa Rica looked clueless at times in the defeat to Ecuador, Wanchope and Gomez really struggled up front, they have already conceded 7 and look likely to add to this tally.

In 2002 World Cup , Poland were in exactly the same position and in the final game beat USA
3-1, motivated from the start, they scored 2 goals in the opening 5 minutes.

They are likely to change the team around, Sobolewski is suspended and the "youngsters" will be given a chance to impress. Reading interviews with the central american players, their heads are already in CR, bodies to follow shortly.

Poland to win, maybe by a couple.

3 points Poland 1.82 betfair.

Good Luck.
