It's easy to be critical of Poland but the shape of Mexico sometimes pushes you back into a low block.

But when they've had the ball, that's when I've been disappointed with Poland.

They have no desire to press high, I think they can move up another 15-20 yards.

Free-kick to Poland deep inside Mexico's half. A number of white shirts position themselves in the box awaiting the delivery. It's over-cooked. Poor.

It must be frustrating for Robert Lewandowski.

He's had one touch in Mexico's box - this doesn't happen to him at club level with the clubs he's played for. He's used to getting more touches of the ball.

He's completed three passes in the first half, he's been starved of the ball and he's having to feed off scraps.

If both managers asked their players to up the tempo, it's gone in one ear and out of the other. It's slow and there's not a lot happening.

That is quite a defensive change when you look at it. Not sure whether Poland think that a point would be a good result and they are willing to take that.

Poland have responded to a turgid 45 minutes by making a change.

Krystian Bielik is on for Nicola Zalewski, who took a knock at one stage.

Right lads. We need a goal, please. Back under way.

Poland's one shot was the fewest they have ever had in a single half (excluding extra-time) of a World Cup match on record (since 1966).

I think Montes and Moreno have been very good. Montes in particular has been very close to Lewandowski when there is a turnover in possession. I think Mexico will be happy with how they have played they have got some seriously exciting players in the wide areas but the big question mark is where their goals will come from.

It's too cagey, I think it's just lack of quality.

You're looking at the earlier result and you're thinking this is a chance - but it's like no team wants to grasp it.

When they're going forward, there's missed passes, a lack of quality in the whole game.

It opened up near the end but it's been one of the worst 45 minutes of the World Cup so far.

On the flipside, you could throw a blanket over most of Poland's players with their number nine looking particularly isolated up top.

Penny for Robert Lewandowski's thoughts - he looks no closer to that elusive first World Cup goal.

If you just keep defending so deep, it leaves Robert Lewandowski isolated up front and he's not the kind of player who will run in behind.

They need to come up the field higher and give him better balls.

Chances were scarce in the opening 45. This was one of the few highlights.

It's not lived up to the hype or the atmosphere so far. Mexico have been the better team and have had more chances. Poland haven't recorded a single shot on target yet and Robert Lewandowski has had just one touch in the opposition box. We could do with a goal to spice things up!

Mexico won the midfield battle in the first half.

A glance at their average positions shows that their formation is looking a touch blunt though with number 20 Henry Martin in theory their frontman.

Raul Jimenez to come on in the second half and offer a focal point for the Mexicans?

Mexico look the more dangerous. They just need someone to stick it in the net.

It's really good build-up play - we wondered if there was a foul there but the ball comes out to Sanchez and he nearly catches Szczesny out.

Taking control now, Mexico - there's only one team trying to win this at the moment.

I don't know whether it's the climate but Poland are stuck in first gear.

Boooooooo. Just the two minutes of stoppage time.

Shot on target!

Jorge Sanchez lets fly from an angle and Wojciech Szczesny has to be alert.

Corner to Mexico.

Hirving Lozano is Mexico's biggest threat. He manages to beat his man again and whip in a cross but Jorge Sanchez is quickly surrounded by a sea of white shirts.
