Bereszyński in 2011

Bereszyński was sent off in the last round of the 2013-14 UEFA Europa League Group stage,^[4] and was suspended for the next three European matches. He did not feature in the 2nd round nor the first leg of the 3rd qualification round in the 2014-15 UEFA Champions League. However, as his club failed to include him in their squad registration for the 2nd round matches, he had not finished his suspension when he came on as a sub in the 86th minute in the return leg against Celtic F.C. in the 3rd round. Legia won the match 2-0, and 6-1 on aggregate. However, after considering the mistake, UEFA set the result to a 3-0 win for Celtic. This made the Scottish team winners on aggregate.^[5]

International career

He made his senior international debut for Poland in 2013.^[6]
