Zurawski struck in the third minute, capitalising on a long throw-in by Marcin Wasilewski to score Poland's 1,200th goal in international football.

The hosts created several more goalscoring chances but failed to take advantage.

Poland forward Euzebiusz Smolarek said: "We could have been better, but I see this as training."

The Poles face Denmark in another home friendly on June 1 in Chorzow before heading off to the June 7-29 tournament, where they are in Group B with co-hosts Austria, Germany and Croatia.
