Poland's talismanic striker Robert Lewandowski came off injured on Monday after 32 minutes of their last Euro 2024 warm-up against Turkey in Warsaw.
His strike partner in Hellas Verona's Karol Swiderski had already left the field after hurting his right ankle celebrating scoring the goal that gave Poland a 12th-minute lead.

Poland, who kick off their Euro campaign against the Netherlands on 16 June, have already lost Juventus striker Arkadiusz Milik, who was injured against Ukraine on Friday.
He "underwent selective arthroscopic meniscectomy surgery on the medial meniscus of his left knee this morning," Juve said on Monday without giving a recovery timeline.
"The player will begin his rehabilitation tomorrow with the aim of resuming competitive activity as soon as possible," they added.
Poland are in Group D at Euro 2024 and after the Netherlands they face Austria and France.
Captain Lewandowski, who has scored 82 times in 149 games for his country, is 35 and would be appearing in his fourth European Championship.
