Poland captain Robert Lewandowski will miss his country's Euro 2024 opener this weekend with a thigh injury, the Polish football federation's doctor said on Tuesday. Lewandowski, 35, will be absent to face the Netherlands on June 16 after suffering the injury in Monday's 2-1 win in a friendly against Turkey. Poland then play Austria on June 21 and the tournament's joint favourites France four days later. "We are doing everything so that Robert can play in the second match against Austria," doctor Jacek Jaroszewski said in a statement.
