Qatar 2022 is
Mexico's 17th World Cup appearance. Surprisingly, no team has played as many games as Mexico at the tournament without ever reaching the final. Meanwhile,
Polandhas a lot of hopes built in their captain Robert Lewandowski as they couldn't make it past the group stages since 1986. The two sides only met once before in the 1978th edition with Poland winning the game 3-1.
