Krzysztof Piatek slams Scotland roughouse tactics as he claims referee was too soft despite Poland penalty

Whinging Krzysztof Piatek complained referee Robert Hennessy was’t hard enough on Scotland despite his dive to win a last-gasp penalty.

The Fiorentina striker hit out at Scotland’s roughhouse tactics that he claimed has left him a doubt for Poland’s World Cup play-off final against Sweden.

Piatek went down in the box in injury time at Hampden before converting the spot kick to to cancel out Kieran Tierney’s headed opener.

Ally McCoist, speaking on Sky Sports, said: “It was never a penalty in a million years” but Piatek had the audacity to complain about the Irish whistler.

The 26-year-old, who is on loan at the Serie A side from Hertha Berlin, wasn't happy with some of the challenges from the Scots.

He pointed out: "My knee is covered in blood and my achilles heel is injured. I hope I will be okay to play against Sweden.

"The Scots were tough. They played hard as you can see from my injuries, but we expected that.

"The referee was Irish so we knew he would allow tough challenges throughout the game. I knew I would get a hard time from the Scottish defenders.

"It was a physical game, but it was important we didn't lose. I think I deserved to score because I had a shot cleared off the line earlier.

"We finally managed to get in behind them and get a penalty.

"It was not an easy game and you can see a few of us are now carrying injuries. But now it is all about Tuesday and hopefully, everyone will recover in time for that.”
