Robert Lewandowski faces an uncertain future with the Polish national team after a devastating World Cup playoff loss to Sweden.
Following the match, the Barcelona forward was unable to confirm if he would continue his international career, simply stating, “I still don’t know.”
The defeat is particularly stinging as the 2026 tournament likely represented the 37-year-old’s final chance to compete on the world stage.
Reflecting on the cruel nature of the narrow defeat, Lewandowski noted the emotional toll of missing out.
“It’s hard to say anything after a game like that,” he admitted, adding that the team truly believed they could win.
While he plans to return to club football to finish the season, he intends to “reflect” before making any official statement regarding his retirement from Poland.
