Poland striker Robert Lewandowski avoids questions regarding his club future after an impressive start to Euro 2012.

Poland's goal hero Robert Lewandowski has avoided questions regarding his club future.

The 23-year-old, who had an impressive last campaign with Borussia Dortmund, was under the spotlight in yesterday's Euro 2012 opener and duly delivered by heading co-hosts Poland in front in the 17th minute.

Poland would go on to only secure a point against Greece but speaking afterwards, Lewandowski would not answer questions about a transfer to Manchester United.

"I am so happy to score this goal in the opening match. But I'm not going to concentrate on these issues (joining United). Euro 2012 is the priority. I'm totally focused on the national team," Lewandowski told reporters.

The striker also admitted that Poland should have taken more of their chances, including one missed header of his own in the first half.

He added: "I did everything to take the ball. I was just millimetres away but this is football and I hope next time I score.

"I regret that we did not take more of our chances in the first half. It could have been two or three zero but we still have a positive attitude."

Poland next face Russia, who impressively saw off the Czech Republic 4-1 in the second game, on Tuesday evening.
