  Wojciech Szczesny Flop of the Match

  Disastrous. The Arsenal goalkeeper had little to do in the first half but then made a costly mistake for the Greece goal. Then, he fouled Salpingidis to concede a penalty and receive his marching orders.

  Sebastian Boenisch

  The left-back produced a satisfactory performance. He tried to show some good runs in the attack - but often found himself without luck in the final pass.

  Marcin Wasilewski

  Very strong and solid in the first half. After the break, though, he showed a lack of liveliness when Salpingidis scored for Greece.

  Damien Perquis

  Very composed and confident throughout, he completely dominated Ninis for the entire match and was willing to do whatever was asked of him on the day. He missed a good chance at the other end when he snatched at a shot.

  Lukasz Piszczek

  Probably the most attacking full-back in the Bundesliga and was awarded all the room he wanted as he constantly overlapped Blaszczykowski to provide his side an attacking option. He played his part in the first goal.

  Eugen Polanski

  His start to the match was not very good. He committed some stupid fouls in the middle of the pitch. After that he was more safe in his duels with the opponents and he improved as the game progressed.

  Maciej Rybus

  Tried to get involved and bring something to the game but struggled and too often held on to the ball for too long.

  Ludovic Obraniak

  The playmaker had a difficult beginning to the match and struggled to shake off his Greek markers throughout.

  Rafael Murawski

  The Poznan midfielder had a great chance in the fifth minute but missed with his weaker left foot. He did feed the wingers reasonably well throughout.

  Jakub Blaszczykowski

  What a captain! He fought from the beginning until the end. Provided a great assist in the seventh minute by crossing for Lewandowski's header. The Dortmund winger also tracked back and put the hard yards in.

  Robert Lewandowski

  The Dortmund striker could be the star of this tournament. Opened the scoring with a great header after seven minutes and showed good link-up play throughout.

  Przemyslaw Tyton

  Made a great stop when he came on and saved the penalty with his first touch. It will give him much-needed confidence for the next games when he stands in for the suspended Szczesny.

  Kostas Chalkias

  Made an awkward mistake after seven minutes when he was caught out for the goal. He showed a lack of authority on Polish crosses throughout the match.

  Giannis Maniatis

  Did not have a big impact on the game. The midfielder was not really safe in his passing and lost most of his duels in the middle of the pitch.

  Avraam Papadopoulos

  The defender has a very difficult first half and lost many of his tussles with Lewandowski.

  Vasilis Torosidis

  Quiet in the first half but improved his game in the second 45 minutes, leading to him providing a great cross for the equaliser.

  Sokratis Papastathopoulos

  It was a nightmare afternoon for the central defender. He was not close enough to Lewandowski when the Polish striker scored the goal. He then harshly received a second yellow card and was sent off after 37 minutes.

  Jose Holebas

  Piszczek and Blaszczykowski dribbled him out of the game in the first 45 minutes. Caught out badly for the goal.

  1.50

  Giorgos Karagounis

  The captain did not fill the role of a leader today. He was too busy arguing with the referee than concentrating on the performance of his team. Then missed from the penalty spot when he had the chance to be a hero.

  Sotiris Ninis

  Failed to get involved much, particularly in the first half. Held the ball up and drew a couple fouls before being substituted.

  Kostas Katsouranis

  Combined well with Karagounis, but didn't offer anything particularly special over the course of the match.

  2.00

  Georgios Samaras

  The Greek did not show his true colours during the game and didn’t really light up the pitch in a way we are used to. Despite receiving the ball in good areas, his passing rarely gave Greece good attacking situations.

  Dimitris Salpingidis Top of the Match

  He came on at the beginning of the first half and scored after just five minutes on the pitch. He then won the penalty to cap a tremendous performance.
