Roger in, six out for Poland

The Poland coach Leo Beenhakker has cut six players from his provisional 31-man squad for UEFA EURO 2008™ and added Brazilian-born Roger Guerreiro ahead of a training camp in the German town of Donaueschingen from 19 to 31 May.

Reserve list
Korona Kielce goalkeeper Wojciech Kowalewski and FK Austria Wien defender Arkadiusz Radomski, who respectively appeared three and four times in qualifying, have been omitted along with midfielder Michał Goliński and attacking trio Dawid Janczyk, Łukasz Piszczek and Artur Wichniarek. Yet their hopes of featuring in Austria and Switzerland are not over according to Beenhakker: "They're on a reserve list but could still make EURO because of injury or the poor form of those selected." The 25-year-old Roger was recently granted Polish citizenship by the country's President Lech Kaczyński.
