Polish striker Robert Lewandowski has warned England that they would be facing an all-out Polish onslaught at Wembley on Tuesday in the playoffs for the 2014 Rio World Cup.

Lewandowski suffered heartbreak at the famous venue five months ago when Borussia Dortmund lost to bitter rivals Bayern Munich in the Champions League Final.

According to the Daily Star, the footballer is determined to attack England and score goals against them in Wembley to avenge his Champions League heartbreak, saying that it would be great for him to score a goal against England on Tuesday.

Victory against Poland will win a berth for England in next summer's World Cup finals in Brazil with Poland finishing as also-rans behind Ukraine and Montenegro, the report added.
