Poor balance sheet
Explosive! Austria winless against Poland since 1994
Austria's international record against Poland does not bode well ahead of the European Championship clash between the two teams on Friday (18:00) in Berlin's Olympic Stadium!
The Austrian team have been without a win against Poland for 30 years and have failed to win a competitive match in any of their four previous attempts. In a total of ten duels, there have been two wins, three draws and five defeats, with a goal difference of 17:19.
Duel in the context of a EURO
The most recent meeting ended in a 0-0 draw in Warsaw in September 2019; six months earlier, the ÖFB team also lost 1-0 at home in the European Championship qualifiers. The two teams have also met at a EURO before - in June 2008, they drew 1-1 at the Happel Stadium after a late penalty goal from Ivica Vastic.
The two games before that were bitter defeats for Austria. After a home 1-3 and an away 2-3 in qualifying for the 2006 World Cup, it was the Poles and not the ÖFB players who went to the finals in Germany.
Peter Stöger's triple pack
The last victory over Poland was in May 1994, when Austria won 4-3 in Katowice thanks to a Peter Stöger treble. The other two ÖFB victories also came in friendly matches in May 1935 (5:2) and August 1977 (2:1), both in the Vienna Prater.
