The black and whites' Paul Pogba put the ball in the net in the fourth minute of the game played on Wednesday in the northern Polish city of Gdańśk.
And while the Turin-based Juventus were ahead for most of the game, a goal by Adam Buksa evened out the score.

However, a late intervention by Mandžukić, who joined the team from Atletico Madrid last month, saw the ball entering the goal post guarded by Lechia's Łukasz Budzilek. (rg)
