AL RAYYAN, Qatar (Reuters) - Striker Robert Lewandowski will continue to take any penalty kicks for Poland at the World Cup, coach Czeslaw Michniewicz said on Friday, adding that the team remains calm after their Mexico stalemate.

Lewandowski failed to break his tournament duck when his second-half penalty was saved in their opening 0-0 draw with Mexico on Tuesday.

"Of course, if there is such a chance, he will make the decision whether he will shoot or give the spot kick away to someone else. It's all up to him. He feels up to taking more penalties, nothing has changed here." "We know what we can do better, what we need to do better, and what worked well. Then the result is always an open question."

"Since the beginning of my work with the national team, we have been able to play basically with every formation ... and none of them being changed when needed should be a surprise."
