Fergie target lives up to billing but Szczesny slips up

Wojciech Szczesny suffered a hugely disappointing start to his Euro 2012 campaign as he was sent off in Poland’s incident-filled draw against Greece in the opening match.

But it was first goalscorer Robert Lewandowski who created the biggest headlines following intense speculation that he is set to sign for Manchester United.

Szczesny, the 22-year-old Arsenal star who is so highly rated in north London that he was tipped as one of the stars of the tournament, now faces a one-match suspension after he mistimed a challenge on Dimitris Salpingidis in the second half, clipping the striker’s ankle with his outstretched leg as he raced free on goal.
