Lewandowski focal point of overlooked World Cup match

Robert Lewandowski (£9.5m) is the Fantasy focal point of Poland’s opening game of the World Cup against Senegal – but Fantasy managers have largely steered clear of this fixture.

The Bayern Munich striker is one just two players in the match with more than five percent ownership on McDonald’s FIFA World Cup Fantasy game, sitting in 8.5% of squads.

Meanwhile, midfielder Salif Sane’s lowly price of £4.5m convinced 6.6% of managers to use him as a budget enabler.

Liverpool attacker Sadio Mane (£8.5m) hasn’t been particularly fancied for goals by Fantasy managers as he is owned by just 3.6%.

POLAND XI (4-2-3-1): Szczęsny; Rybus, Pazdan, Cionek, Piszczek; Krychowiak, Zieliński; Grosicki, Milik, Błaszczykowski; Lewandowski

SENEGAL XI (4-4-1-1): K N’Diaye; Sabaly, Kouyaté, Sané, Wagué; Niang, Gueye, A N’Diaye, Sarr; Mané; Diouf.

    A) james --> isco
    B) take a hit to do something like james mbappe --> 6.0mid cr7

      Other than that pretty solid imo.
