ROBERT LEWANDOWSKI somehow spurned a golden opportunity for Poland in their Euro 2020 decider against Sweden.
With the score at 1-0 in the first-half of their Group E clash, the Bayern Munich star came agonisingly close to levelling the score.
A corner from the right was met by the 32-year-old's downward header, which pinged off the frame of the goal.
But the ball bounced back straight towards Lewandowski for what appeared to be a tap in.
Amazingly, he got a bit too underneath the second header and once again planted his effort against the crossbar.
It was a stunning miss for a player who smashed a Bundesliga record 41 goals during the 2020-21 campaign.
And Lewandowski had netted a superb header to earn a point against Spain only days ago.
Poland went into the game in Saint Petersburg knowing that only a win would secure a place in the last-16.

Pablo Sarabia's shot looped up off the crossbar in the first-half of their clash in Seville.
Dubravka attempted to palm the ball over his goal after it had rebounded up into the air – only to scuff the parry into his own net.
