Paweł Dawidowicz will not have good memories of Tuesday’s match against Croatia (3:3). His wrong pass resulted in an action, after which the Croatians scored the third goal. Additionally, he did not play the entire first half due to an injury and was replaced by Kamil Piątkowski in the 38th minute.

“His guilt increased with each subsequent goal conceded. During the first one, he knocked the ball out of the penalty area after Modric’s cross. And did it fall straight onto the leg of Sosa, who scored a goal to make it 1-1? Unlucky. During the second one, he was late and didn’t have time to get to the assister. Baturiny. In the third one, he was most at fault because he simply passed the ball to the opponent standing just outside the penalty area. He went down with an injury before the break. Piątkowski played much better,” Dawid Szymczak from Sport.pl assessed. the defender of Hellas Verona “one”.
Paweł Dawidowicz has disabled the ability to comment on Instagram
The player himself must have been aware of his poor performance, and immediately after the match he blocked the ability to add comments to the latest entries on his Instagram account. “Paweł Dawidowicz has turned off comments on Instagram. Hate is not allowed. The defender’s last post on IG is on the screen – there is no comment bubble,” said Marcin Jaz from Sport.pl on the X website.
However, Dawidowicz did not turn off comments on all posts. And so offensive entries appeared under older ones. “Go to hell with such a football player” – this is one of them.
Michał Probierz also commented on this situation at the post-match press conference. – It’s hard to say. Every player, every coach has to live with it, has to accept criticism. If it is public, it is the normal course of things, said the coach of the Polish national team.
Poland is third in the Nations League table (4 points), ahead of Scotland (point). Portugal is first (10 points) and Croatia is second (7 points). The Polish national team will play its next matches in November. It will be an away match against Portugal (Friday, November 15) and a home match against Scotland (Monday, November 18).
Paweł Dawidowicz: A Day to Forget
So, here we are talking about Paweł Dawidowicz after that 3-3 rollercoaster of a match against Croatia, where he seemingly decided that “give it away” was the theme of the day. Look, I get that football can be tricky; one minute you’re a hero, and the next, you’re the villain that everyone’s targeting like a deer in a shooting gallery! Can you just imagine him, sitting there watching replays? “Oh, look, there’s my pass! Oh wait, it’s on the opponent’s foot—surprise!”
And what’s worse than being publicly analyzed for your flop? The aftermath on social media. That’s when people really get creative with their disdain!
“There is great dissatisfaction,” they claimed, and indeed there is! If only Dawidowicz had set up a GoFundMe for his therapy session afterward.
From Hero to Zero: The Unfortunate Play
Now, let’s break this down. The lad’s guilt must have started at the first goal, where his attempt to clear was a bit more theatrical than effective. Imagine watching it live—he knocks Modric’s cross into the path of Sosa for a 1-1! It’s as if he decided to play “hot potato” with the ball but forgot that baseball wasn’t the goal.
By the time we hit goal number two, it was as if he was auditioning for a role in a tragedy—lost, late, and utterly confused by the oscillations of the game. And finally, the pièce de résistance: handing the ball over on a silver platter to another Croatian player! It’s the kind of pass that makes you wonder if he thought he was in a charity match instead.
The Instagram Blockade
In an effort to shield himself from social media backlash, Paweł decided to go all “Instagram ninja” and block comments on the latest posts. As if disabling comments could erase that fateful game from everyone’s memory! Go ahead, Paweł, try to block out your performance, but newsflash: ignorance isn’t bliss, my friend! There’s still plenty of derision lurking in the comments on older posts; some things just aren’t so easily muted.
“Go to hell with such a football player!” Ouch! Talk about taking the wind out of his sails. This isn’t just football; it’s a dramatic saga!
Meanwhile, Michal Probierz, the coach, had his own take:
“Every player, every coach has to live with it.” Talk about a pep talk that needs some serious sprucing up! I mean, yes, criticism is part of the game, but how about some cake to with it? Or perhaps a good glass of red wine to swallow the harsh truths?
Looking Forward
Poland currently sits third in the Nations League table, ahead of Scotland but trailing Portugal and Croatia. Dawidowicz and the rest of the team have got their work cut out for them in the upcoming matches against Portugal this November. Talk about a heavy dose of reality—can’t wait to see Poland get back on that pitch, hopefully without a comedy of errors this time around!
So here’s to hoping Paweł finds his inner defender again. But keep the comments off, just in case the trolls come back with pitchforks for round two! Who knows, perhaps next match will be less about defending and more about living the dream—just hands, no pass!
