Kazakhstan 2 - 2 Poland: Kazakhstan come from two down to draw with Poland
Posted Monday, September 05, 2016 by PA
Kazakhstan fought back to earn a 2-2 draw with Poland in Astana.
Poland, quarter-finalists at the recent European Championship, looked like making a winning start to their World Cup qualifying campaign when Leicester summer signing Bartosz Kapustka put them ahead after nine minutes and Robert Lewandowski extended the lead with a 35th-minute penalty.
The game would probably have been beyond the hosts had Arkadiusz Milik's shot gone in, rather than hitting a post, just before half-time but Kazakhstan made the most of their good fortune with two quick-fire goals from Sergei Khizhnichenko early in the second half.
Milik missed three chances to restore Poland's lead and snatch the victory as Kazakhstan survived.
