Alan Shearer and Rio Ferdinand have hailed Wojciech Szczesny after the goalkeeper saved a Lionel Messi penalty during Poland's loss on Wednesday night.
Poland were defeated 2-0 by Argentina in their final group game, but have qualified for the knockout stages on goal difference. They could have been heading home though had Szczesny not denied Messi from 12 yards in the first-half.
Mexico's win over Saudi Arabia left them and Poland on three points, but Poland's one-better goal difference sent Robert Lewandowski's side through ahead of the Central Americans. And both Shearer and Ferdinand believe that it should be Szczesny who takes the credit.
