Wojciech Szczęsny exposed the backstage. “I would never forgive myself”
Already on Saturday evening FC Barcelona will face Real Madrid in the King Cup final. The Polish goalkeeper Wojciech Szczęsny will probably stand in the Catalonia Duma goal.
As for the final match, it seems that the Friday alarm regarding any boycott by Real Madrid players was just a “scare”. It is hard to imagine that the Królewski would not decide to go to the pitch. Robert Lewandowski, still an injured Barca striker and the Polish national team, probably will not appear on such. Polish fans will therefore be able to keep their fingers crossed “only” for one of their compatriot. Wojciech Szczęsny should stand between the posts.
Wojciech Szczęsny in a sincere interview. The Pole exposed interesting backstage
Even before the final of the King’s Cup, ESPN published an interview with the Polish goalkeeper. Szczęsny is a unique character, looking at his surprising return from a short pension – at which he decided in the summer of 2024. When Barcelona called, the Pole did not think long about the offer from the capital of Catalonia.
– If I was watching this Barcelona team from the couch in Marbella, knowing that I could be part of it, I would never forgive myself. This is a team completely different than all in Europe. Very extreme in your style of play. It is a “high risk, a large reward” game. I’ve never played in such a band before. Can I adapt? Is this a process (…) Only one defeat in 27 matches? I think it is largely an accident. I mean, my contribution to the fact that we did not lose a single meeting was rather minimal. The team plays a really good ball, scores a lot of goals. You just try not to disturb them. And that’s it. I was just lucky to go to the goal when the team began to win matches – Szczęsny admitted in his style.
FC Barcelona – Real Madrid. When and where to watch the final match?
It is worth adding that Barcelona and Królewski have already met in the game for a national trophy. In the match for the Spanish Super Cup, played on January 12 this year, Barcelona was the top. After a crazy match, Barca triumphed with a high result, as much as 5: 2. Robert Lewandowski scored then (at 2: 1), and Wojciech Szczęsny received … a red card in the 56th minute of the meeting. However, throwing out of the Pole’s field did not affect the team’s success.
The King’s Cup final will take place at Estadio de la Cartuja in Seville. The FC Barcelona – Real Madrid match will start at 22:00. The broadcast will be available on TVP1 and TVP Sport. The online match will be shown on the TVP Sport website and via the station mobile application.
