After 26 minutes, Silva gave Portugal the lead with a header from Bruno Fernandes. Eleven minutes later, captain Ronaldo doubled the advantage with his 133rd goal for his country, hitting the post with his initial attempt.
Poland's Piotr Zielinski scored a goal back in the 78th minute with a strong shot into the roof of the net, and in the last minutes, home defender Jan Bednarek scored an own goal.
