International Friendly Poland versus Romania 2 February 2013

What to look for:

+ Polish national team head coach Waldemar Fornalik named a 18-man roster recently as the squad hopes to earn a victory versus Romania this February.

+ Defender Piotr Celeban will face off against colleagues as the Polish defender competes for Romanian side Vaslui. Celeban's teammate, 19-year-old midfielder Nicolae Stanciu, is looking to debut for the Romanian national team.

Prospect Watch:

+ Mariusz Stepinski, a 17-year-old attacker with the Widzew Lodz, could earn his first cap with the senior national team. One of the Ekstraklasa's brightest prospects, Stepinski appears ready for prime time.



+ Interesting to see how the Legia Warsaw midfield troika performs. Daniel Łukasik, Jakub Kosecki and Dominik Furman are all eager to earn a second cap for The White Eagles.
