Michal Probierz quit his job as Poland's national soccer coach Thursday after fighting with team captain Robert Lewandowski. The coach said he left his position to help the team succeed. Probierz removed Lewandowski from the captain role and made the striker angry about losing his leadership position. The famous Barcelona player announced Sunday he would refuse to play for Poland as long as Probierz remained in charge. Their public argument hurt team chemistry and caused problems for the squad.

Poland lost 2-1 to Finland after Lewandowski made his announcement about boycotting the team. The defeat pushed Poland out of first place in their European World Cup qualifying group. Probierz decided his resignation would solve the team's leadership crisis and help players focus on soccer again. Poland needs strong leadership to qualify for the next World Cup tournament. The coaching change gives Poland a fresh start to rebuild team unity and improve their qualifying campaign results.
