POLAND : PLAYERS TO WATCH

World-class 'keeper Jerzy Dudek has demonstrated he is quite capable of producing big saves and stopping penalty kicks, which he did for Liverpool in its incredible Champions League final comeback in May 2005. But Artur Boruc might start in his place because Dudek lost the top spot at Liverpool. Tomasz Frankowski and Maciej Zurawski, a pair of speedy forwards, finished with seven goals apiece in qualifying.
