Wojciech Szczęsny’s hit intervention. The Pole warmed up the internet again!
In the last round of the league phase of the FC Barcelona Champions League, he faces Atalanta. Wojciech Szczęsny stood between Barca’s posts and showed his artistry.
After the first 45 minutes, FC Barcelona draws goalless with Atalanta at his stadium. This is due to Wojciech Szczęsny, who, so far, was not defeated. At least not in the context of the rules, because the guests scored, but ultimately after verification, the hit Davide Zapacosta was not recognized. The footballer was in a burned position, as Var’s verification showed.
Szczęsny, however, managed to warm up social media. One of the intervention of a Pole, in which he remained peace after a difficult pass from a teammate, quickly circulated the internet. Szczęsny, not wanting to take unnecessary risk, struck the ball on a corner.
In addition, it is worth supplementing that Szczęsny behaved twice well in difficult situations. In the 10th minute he defended the shot of the intervening … defender Barca Alejandro Balde. Two minutes later, the Pole added a good parade at the shot in the “long corner” from the guests’ attacker. Mateo Retegui failed to defeat the Polish goalkeeper.
Hansi Flick bet on Wojciech Szczęsny in the FC Barcelona goal
We have informed about the choice of a German trainer in recent days. Barcelona’s coach decided that it was Szczęsny, not Inaki Pena would defend his team’s goals. There is nothing to hide, for the Barca trainer it was a difficult decision.
– We never lost to Szczęsny at the goal. For now, he has two wins. For Peni, this is not the best situation, but this is football. Decisions must be made. We are professionals and this is our business (…) Wojtek will play in the next matches. Both are great goalkeepers. We make decisions that are sometimes difficult, but that’s my job. We also look which player gives the team the strength we need – he assessed after a high, weekend win of Barcelona in Laliga with Valencia (7: 1) coach Flick.
Szczęsny went to Barcelona, returning from … a pension he decided not to get along in the context of the future with Juventus. The Pole was not in the plans of the new club coach from Turin, so in the summer of 2024 he decided to hang shoes on the stake.
The proposal from Barcelona, however, was the one from the genre that is impossible to reject for Szczęsny. Thus, “Szczena” joined Robert Lewandowski in one of the most famous clubs in the history of club football.
