​EURO2016: Blaszczykowski putting Poland team ahead of personal milestones

Poland have never lost when Borussia Dortmund's Jakub Blaszczykowski has scored, but the winger is dismissive of being seen as a lucky omen ahead of tomorrow's Euro 2016 quarter-final against Portugal in Marseille.

The 30-year-old is adamant the team's progress, rather than individual glory, is his primary focus.

"I really don't care who scores," Blaszczykowski said.

"What I care most about is that the team win. This gives me the greatest satisfaction."
