Ivica Vastic scored in the closing moments of injury-time with a penalty kick Thursday, giving European Championship co-host Austria a 1-1 draw with Poland.

Mariusz Lewandowski pulled the shirt of Sebastian Proedl in the area on a free kick and the referee awarded the Austrians the penalty kick. Vastic sent his shot to the goalkeeper's right.

Brazilian-born playmaker Roger Guerreiro gave Poland the lead by tapping in a 30th-minute cross from Marek Saganowski for his first international goal since he received Polish citizenship in April, AP reported.
