Ex-Wycombe youngster Matty Cash starts for Poland in the World Cup

The fixture, which will kick off at 4pm in the UK on November 22, will see the ex-Chairboy start as a right-wing back, donning the number two shirt.

Cash spent two years in the Wanderers youth setup but was released at the conclusion of the 2011/12 season, aged 14.
