In-form Poland striker Robert Lewandowski has said that he is up for the challenge should Scotland centre-back Grant Hanley adopt a physical approach when the two sides meet on Thursday night.

Lewandowski, who has 12 goals for Bayern Munich so far this season, spoke specifically about the Blackburn Rovers centre-back ahead of the crucial Euro 2016 qualifier.

"He'll get a fast yellow card if he introduces himself like that (physically) and then we will play directly towards him," the striker told reporters.

"For sure I won't hold back while tackling. You have to resist when someone's playing tough. It's normal. You can switch yourself and play like the opposition."

Scotland currently sit fourth in group D, six points off Thursday's opponents Poland, who currently occupy the second automatic qualification spot.
