00:00:15,010 --> 00:00:21,604
LEWANDOWSKI — UNKNOWN

4
00:00:24,955 --> 00:00:26,371
What do you wish for me?

5
00:00:26,671 --> 00:00:27,711
I wish for you...

6
00:00:29,771 --> 00:00:33,647
to be a super rich footballer who plays

7
00:00:33,671 --> 00:00:35,839
in a Serie A Italian club.

8
00:00:35,879 --> 00:00:39,299
That you make a ton of money
and support your dad when he’s old.

9
00:00:39,379 --> 00:00:42,131
Roberto Lewandowski,
the best player in Europe.

10
00:00:42,171 --> 00:00:43,399
Really?

11
00:00:43,423 --> 00:00:46,299
If you keep training,
that's how it will be.

12
00:00:47,455 --> 00:00:48,655
Give me a kiss.

13
00:00:50,339 --> 00:00:51,547
Good luck!

14
00:00:51,755 --> 00:00:53,923
Keep playing as well as you do.

15
00:01:46,595 --> 00:01:48,683
We had two trees here.

16
00:01:48,755 --> 00:01:51,923
Robert used them as goals.

17
00:01:51,947 --> 00:01:56,083
He used to make his favorite dog a goalie

18
00:01:56,107 --> 00:01:57,795
and tried to score.

19
00:01:58,515 --> 00:02:05,031
The dog was so quick he caught
almost every ball with his muzzle.

20
00:02:05,115 --> 00:02:08,067
We had to take care that
she wouldn’t bite through it.

21
00:02:08,091 --> 00:02:11,303
Robert played at school,

22
00:02:11,339 --> 00:02:12,463
after school,

23
00:02:12,547 --> 00:02:13,635
at training,

24
00:02:13,715 --> 00:02:16,195
and then, he would go
out and play till dark.

25
00:02:16,239 --> 00:02:17,611
He never had enough.

26
00:02:17,879 --> 00:02:20,171
We had lots of ideas,

27
00:02:20,199 --> 00:02:22,718
our imagination was always working.

28
00:02:23,339 --> 00:02:26,983
We used the names of the
players we adored.

29
00:02:27,007 --> 00:02:30,091
When the moment was right, we screamed,

30
00:02:30,163 --> 00:02:33,127
"This or that player shoots, and goal."

31
00:02:33,195 --> 00:02:37,275
We wanted to feel like it was us
playing in those huge stadiums.

32
00:02:37,351 --> 00:02:40,238
Even though the goals were made
of stones or backpacks.

33
00:02:47,971 --> 00:02:49,571
We had no expectations then.

34
00:02:49,963 --> 00:02:53,091
The only thing that mattered
was being in the moment

35
00:02:53,155 --> 00:02:54,875
and the joy we felt.

36
00:03:52,947 --> 00:03:56,031
When I was 8 and wanted to join a club,

37
00:03:56,055 --> 00:03:58,179
there wasn't one with kids my age.

38
00:03:58,203 --> 00:04:00,079
So, I started playing with

39
00:04:00,163 --> 00:04:04,035
boys who were 2 years
older – born in 1986.

40
00:04:04,071 --> 00:04:07,483
We were afraid of injuries
caused by collisions.

41
00:04:07,567 --> 00:04:12,235
The older boys had
already gained muscle mass.

42
00:04:16,963 --> 00:04:20,007
What number was I?
I need to find myself…

43
00:04:20,547 --> 00:04:21,923
Do you see Robert?

44
00:04:23,203 --> 00:04:24,663
There I am.

45
00:04:24,687 --> 00:04:27,563
Skinny as a twig fighting for the ball.

46
00:04:33,195 --> 00:04:35,319
Go Robert!
Well done!

47
00:04:39,179 --> 00:04:42,551
You can see what the
soccer fields looked like then.

48
00:04:42,635 --> 00:04:45,875
Sandy. Grass only grew during summer,

49
00:04:45,947 --> 00:04:49,615
when everybody was
on holiday with their parents.

50
00:04:49,695 --> 00:04:53,407
The simple fact that you used
to get a jersey, shorts and socks

51
00:04:53,531 --> 00:04:57,779
made you proud and really happy.

52
00:04:58,739 --> 00:05:00,363
Oh, I scored a goal!

53
00:05:00,739 --> 00:05:05,739
The parents were really
engaged, they cheered like crazy.

54
00:05:05,987 --> 00:05:07,753
They would even interrupt.

55
00:05:07,837 --> 00:05:12,323
The coach would be giving instructions,
but every parent knew better.

56
00:05:12,379 --> 00:05:14,463
It used to annoy us

57
00:05:14,579 --> 00:05:21,503
because as coaches ourselves, we didn't
like being lectured from the sidelines.

58
00:05:21,903 --> 00:05:24,943
Sometimes I was disappointed with my dad,

59
00:05:26,643 --> 00:05:28,391
because he was too...

60
00:05:30,071 --> 00:05:31,947
calm watching me play.

61
00:05:31,987 --> 00:05:35,323
I was always more impulsive...

62
00:05:37,075 --> 00:05:39,955
I would ask, "what, why?

63
00:05:40,048 --> 00:05:41,889
It should be a goal!”

64
00:05:42,155 --> 00:05:46,682
My husband was calm:
"No. Robert was offside." He saw it.

65
00:05:46,764 --> 00:05:49,571
But he was also aware

66
00:05:49,611 --> 00:05:52,587
how important it was not to
put pressure on a young kid

67
00:05:52,979 --> 00:05:54,731
during a game or training.

68
00:05:58,075 --> 00:06:00,395
- I was always afraid to run here.
- Sure.

69
00:06:00,465 --> 00:06:02,871
That you'd fall into
a bunker or something.

70
00:06:02,955 --> 00:06:04,923
I remember once I took a shortcut

71
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:06,431
and it stayed on my conscience.

72
00:06:06,455 --> 00:06:10,539
- Did you turn back?
- No. I went to coach Sikorski.

73
00:06:10,695 --> 00:06:12,831
And told him I wanted to run it again.

74
00:06:12,915 --> 00:06:15,395
You admitted it to him?

75
00:06:16,299 --> 00:06:18,547
One time we came back
to the dressing room.

76
00:06:18,571 --> 00:06:22,391
We were really upset
because we'd lost the game.

77
00:06:22,795 --> 00:06:26,235
It turned out that the keeper on
the other team was older.

78
00:06:26,324 --> 00:06:27,883
- And he escaped out the window.
- Yeah.

79
00:06:27,907 --> 00:06:29,491
They wanted to check him.

80
00:06:29,531 --> 00:06:32,279
He was born in '85. Three
years difference was a lot.

81
00:06:32,323 --> 00:06:34,711
We were like 12 or 14 years old.

82
00:06:34,795 --> 00:06:38,135
We weighed 27 kilos, he weighed 50.

83
00:06:39,863 --> 00:06:41,796
What if we found that goalkeeper now?

84
00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,040
I wonder if he would admit
that he cheated against you?

85
00:06:46,731 --> 00:06:48,899
- Hello!
- Welcome!

86
00:06:48,923 --> 00:06:51,279
Look who we have here, coach!

87
00:06:59,715 --> 00:07:01,809
- The jersey.
- Is it mine?

88
00:07:01,893 --> 00:07:03,485
- We used to play in them.
- Yeah.

89
00:07:03,555 --> 00:07:05,732
- What's the number?
- I still have a whole set.

90
00:07:05,756 --> 00:07:08,531
That was such a great jersey back then.

91
00:07:08,571 --> 00:07:09,779
German precision.

92
00:07:09,807 --> 00:07:13,591
Wait, this is rare,
look where it was made.

93
00:07:14,355 --> 00:07:15,647
England.

94
00:07:17,967 --> 00:07:19,715
You stole all the pictures.

95
00:07:19,739 --> 00:07:23,155
There are no Varsovia photos,
only Robert’s photos.

96
00:07:26,053 --> 00:07:27,367
How did it go?

97
00:07:27,399 --> 00:07:32,886
Honor a good referee
and the opposing team: hooray!

98
00:07:38,063 --> 00:07:43,391
Robert went to Straelen
with the older boys.

99
00:07:43,475 --> 00:07:45,595
When he came back, he said:

100
00:07:45,655 --> 00:07:48,987
"Mom, I have to play
in the German league!"

101
00:07:49,015 --> 00:07:50,443
I asked "why?"

102
00:07:50,598 --> 00:07:56,431
"It’s so pretty there!
In front of the houses,

103
00:07:56,515 --> 00:08:00,395
and the football pitches,
it's like running on carpet!"

104
00:08:04,475 --> 00:08:07,235
Since I was born there
were no Polish footballers

105
00:08:07,267 --> 00:08:10,816
who played in the big
clubs, or went abroad.

106
00:08:14,075 --> 00:08:16,827
I never wanted to be average.

107
00:08:17,835 --> 00:08:19,075
I don’t know why.

108
00:08:19,676 --> 00:08:20,879
Maybe...

109
00:08:22,092 --> 00:08:24,159
I was stupid, or naive enough...

110
00:08:26,035 --> 00:08:28,515
to dream so big.

111
00:08:35,195 --> 00:08:38,515
The first time I realized

112
00:08:40,779 --> 00:08:44,271
that football was something
that I would do seriously

113
00:08:44,327 --> 00:08:45,935
for years to come,

114
00:08:46,055 --> 00:08:48,584
was when I joined Lech Poznań.

115
00:08:49,836 --> 00:08:52,496
I think this was the best choice.

116
00:08:52,580 --> 00:08:55,511
I hope I don’t disappoint the fans.

117
00:08:55,595 --> 00:08:57,206
And I play as best as I can.

118
00:09:01,395 --> 00:09:03,815
There is a lot of training behind my game.

119
00:09:03,855 --> 00:09:08,023
It's not perfect yet, because
perfection is unattainable.

120
00:09:08,047 --> 00:09:10,247
You have to keep practicing,

121
00:09:10,275 --> 00:09:12,315
and reach as high as you can.

122
00:09:20,635 --> 00:09:22,561
It was 2008.

123
00:09:24,287 --> 00:09:29,031
Someone told me there was an interesting
player in Poland.

124
00:09:29,115 --> 00:09:34,035
But it was not a big transfer for us.

125
00:09:34,107 --> 00:09:36,107
A mere 4,5 million

126
00:09:36,135 --> 00:09:38,803
and we decided we wanted him.

127
00:09:39,691 --> 00:09:42,475
Dortmund was a real turning point.

128
00:09:42,799 --> 00:09:46,211
We were trying to find a
balance, being together.

129
00:09:46,355 --> 00:09:49,395
We wanted to set things
up so that I could be with him,

130
00:09:49,463 --> 00:09:51,963
and not have to give up on my things.

131
00:09:53,923 --> 00:09:56,264
I worried what would happen
if I went with him.

132
00:09:56,348 --> 00:09:58,247
I'd have to start studying part-time.

133
00:09:58,315 --> 00:10:01,755
I'd be giving up on a part of me, karate.

134
00:10:02,235 --> 00:10:04,372
I was supposed to manage a club.

135
00:10:05,839 --> 00:10:08,507
What If we didn’t make it?

136
00:10:11,215 --> 00:10:15,007
Moving abroad was a difficult
time for Anna and I.

137
00:10:15,091 --> 00:10:18,295
In Germany you rent flats without
furniture.

138
00:10:18,355 --> 00:10:20,515
So we had to wait two
months for a kitchen.

139
00:10:20,595 --> 00:10:23,915
And the comfort of having a family home

140
00:10:23,987 --> 00:10:26,215
was important enough to me,

141
00:10:26,771 --> 00:10:29,939
that it really influenced my
game in those first months.

142
00:10:29,995 --> 00:10:36,203
Lewy wasn’t a workhorse
from the beginning.

143
00:10:36,271 --> 00:10:38,563
He had to learn to give everything.

144
00:10:39,263 --> 00:10:43,595
He was extremely talented

145
00:10:44,315 --> 00:10:47,395
but he needed some
time to learn to use it.

146
00:10:48,475 --> 00:10:52,594
Training was really hard. I was ambitious
and wanted to bring my best every time.

147
00:10:52,675 --> 00:10:55,711
Players would skip days if something hurt.

148
00:10:55,795 --> 00:10:58,275
Not me, even if I was
in pain, I kept going.

149
00:10:58,352 --> 00:11:02,983
I wanted to show that even
though I’m from Poland, I can make it.

150
00:11:03,075 --> 00:11:05,115
Between trainings I had to deal with

151
00:11:05,195 --> 00:11:08,675
getting a SIM card, a place to
live, paperwork. There was a lot.

152
00:11:08,759 --> 00:11:10,241
I burned myself out.

153
00:11:10,715 --> 00:11:15,115
He was very withdrawn at the beginning.

154
00:11:15,195 --> 00:11:21,315
He didn’t speak German. Was
much thinner, not very well-built.

155
00:11:25,356 --> 00:11:26,688
Bobusiek.

156
00:11:28,269 --> 00:11:29,472
Bobek.

157
00:11:31,355 --> 00:11:35,395
I got the nickname when my father
came back from the USA,

158
00:11:35,479 --> 00:11:37,355
where he'd gone to earn some money.

159
00:11:37,435 --> 00:11:39,315
He told me that,

160
00:11:39,995 --> 00:11:42,355
Bob was short for Robert.

161
00:11:42,435 --> 00:11:45,231
Since I was the smallest,

162
00:11:45,315 --> 00:11:46,567
they called me 'Bobek'.

163
00:11:47,875 --> 00:11:50,812
In a store in Barcelona with my Mom,

164
00:11:50,896 --> 00:11:55,763
we bought for him these
capri sweatpants, as a souvenir.

165
00:11:55,795 --> 00:12:00,751
When he put them on they really
accentuated his skinny legs,

166
00:12:00,835 --> 00:12:02,536
it wasn’t the best present.

167
00:12:04,139 --> 00:12:06,595
- It's not too big.
- It's perfect.

168
00:12:06,738 --> 00:12:11,747
My mom still buys things with
room to grow, for us and for our kids.

169
00:12:12,511 --> 00:12:14,135
Nothing's changed there.

170
00:12:16,499 --> 00:12:19,031
Now you look like a real man.

171
00:12:19,059 --> 00:12:21,559
A little bit oversized but
it doesn’t matter.

172
00:12:21,583 --> 00:12:23,331
It’s too big, look.

173
00:12:23,359 --> 00:12:27,191
Nah, it’s okay. It will be perfect
in a month.

174
00:12:27,215 --> 00:12:29,315
The color suits him.

175
00:12:44,399 --> 00:12:46,679
I was a happy, cheerful boy.

176
00:12:46,735 --> 00:12:47,805
Open to the world,

177
00:12:47,889 --> 00:12:52,319
but certain situations blocked me.

178
00:12:53,055 --> 00:12:55,655
Until I was a teenager

179
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,139
I was ashamed because

180
00:12:58,163 --> 00:12:59,663
I didn't have proper muscles.

181
00:12:59,687 --> 00:13:02,479
My knees were wider than my thighs.

182
00:13:03,531 --> 00:13:06,940
I often felt pretty awkward.

183
00:13:09,635 --> 00:13:12,155
I would wonder if I should put shorts on

184
00:13:12,226 --> 00:13:14,727
because my legs were
so thin that it looked weird.

185
00:13:16,025 --> 00:13:19,431
I lacked self-confidence and courage.

186
00:13:19,515 --> 00:13:24,155
Other kids used that to make fun of me.

187
00:13:24,195 --> 00:13:27,071
You know how young boys can be.

188
00:13:28,155 --> 00:13:31,515
They look for points of
weakness in the weaker ones.

189
00:13:37,435 --> 00:13:39,678
A thin type.

190
00:13:39,762 --> 00:13:44,043
He didn’t look serious
at the first glance.

191
00:13:44,559 --> 00:13:47,727
I think I saw two matches with him.

192
00:13:48,271 --> 00:13:51,143
He didn’t convince me.
So, I gave up on him.

193
00:13:51,171 --> 00:13:52,879
Just like the media did.

194
00:13:56,215 --> 00:14:02,255
Robert was really lucky to play
with Kuba and Lukasz Piszczek

195
00:14:02,283 --> 00:14:05,239
who helped him a lot.

196
00:14:05,635 --> 00:14:08,927
What he did do, was to
learn German very fast.

197
00:14:08,951 --> 00:14:10,115
Unbelievably fast.

198
00:14:10,143 --> 00:14:12,475
He could speak German really soon.

199
00:14:12,627 --> 00:14:18,711
And I learned Polish
specifically for Lewy.

200
00:14:19,571 --> 00:14:23,115
"Rusz dupe" was for
him. Not the other two.

201
00:14:23,139 --> 00:14:26,639
I asked Kuba how to say "move your ass."

202
00:14:26,699 --> 00:14:29,761
I regret that I wasn't more arrogant

203
00:14:29,845 --> 00:14:33,095
as a football player. Not as a person.

204
00:14:33,123 --> 00:14:34,247
Maybe a bit as well.

205
00:14:34,339 --> 00:14:35,992
My ego wasn't big enough.

206
00:14:36,076 --> 00:14:40,271
It would have helped me
to show a better version of me.

207
00:14:40,355 --> 00:14:41,755
The real me.

208
00:14:46,155 --> 00:14:50,595
Robert lacked aggression.

209
00:14:52,915 --> 00:14:55,195
He lacked passion.

210
00:14:56,555 --> 00:14:59,595
His facial expression was always the same.

211
00:14:59,643 --> 00:15:04,351
I told him that if you don’t show
things on the outside

212
00:15:04,375 --> 00:15:08,715
it's possible that you don’t feel
them strong enough.

213
00:15:08,739 --> 00:15:11,921
So, we worked on that too.

214
00:15:15,431 --> 00:15:18,955
Don’t judge a book by its cover.

215
00:15:19,003 --> 00:15:22,087
You may not know a person’s history,

216
00:15:22,162 --> 00:15:25,618
you don't know what challenges they face.

217
00:15:26,435 --> 00:15:32,207
Sometimes we can
hurt them unintentionally.

218
00:15:32,831 --> 00:15:36,787
I think those are challenges
that every family faces.

219
00:15:40,487 --> 00:15:45,903
In Dortmund we experienced
having a home together.

220
00:15:46,039 --> 00:15:49,747
We went on holiday, where we got engaged.

221
00:15:52,207 --> 00:15:53,955
Do you remember the boat?

222
00:15:55,348 --> 00:15:56,596
Which one?

223
00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:00,472
The one you wanted to
take me on for 300 dollars.

224
00:16:01,329 --> 00:16:02,996
No, less.

225
00:16:03,080 --> 00:16:05,877
I wanted to pick the catamaran, for 50.

226
00:16:07,247 --> 00:16:09,971
You wanted to spoil my plan.

227
00:16:11,715 --> 00:16:14,155
I wanted to take you to a deserted island

228
00:16:14,259 --> 00:16:15,799
and propose to you.

229
00:16:16,291 --> 00:16:20,416
But you said, "Let’s take the
catamaran, like everybody else."

230
00:16:22,087 --> 00:16:24,291
I remember coming back.

231
00:16:24,319 --> 00:16:26,275
Tomek called you and asked,

232
00:16:26,303 --> 00:16:28,372
"is it true? Did you get engaged?

233
00:16:29,235 --> 00:16:31,755
You bastard, you didn't tell anyone!"

234
00:16:33,087 --> 00:16:34,247
Yeah, it's true.

235
00:16:34,331 --> 00:16:36,999
I remember I got so annoyed in Cuba,

236
00:16:37,023 --> 00:16:39,191
because you'd forgotten
your driver's license.

237
00:16:39,275 --> 00:16:40,991
I had to drive the whole time.

238
00:16:41,075 --> 00:16:42,312
I don’t remember that.

239
00:16:53,235 --> 00:16:54,735
Let's share wafer!

240
00:17:02,475 --> 00:17:04,926
My beloved husband!

241
00:17:17,539 --> 00:17:21,599
My parents both loved their work.

242
00:17:21,623 --> 00:17:24,707
They met because of sport. They fulfilled
themselves through sport.

243
00:17:24,787 --> 00:17:27,955
That's why they got along so well.

244
00:17:28,663 --> 00:17:33,087
Our parents taught us,

245
00:17:33,263 --> 00:17:35,539
what they knew best,

246
00:17:35,563 --> 00:17:37,259
which was primarily sport.

247
00:17:37,439 --> 00:17:39,315
My mom played volleyball.

248
00:17:39,339 --> 00:17:42,267
So obviously she wanted me
to play volleyball too.

249
00:17:42,291 --> 00:17:46,875
My dad didn’t want
Robert to train judo like him

250
00:17:46,903 --> 00:17:50,591
because it wasn’t very popular.

251
00:17:51,555 --> 00:17:55,347
And so, soccer came naturally.

252
00:17:55,647 --> 00:17:58,581
Is this all right, Dad?

253
00:17:59,355 --> 00:18:02,227
Beautiful!

254
00:18:05,955 --> 00:18:09,267
In my mind I can still see my dad

255
00:18:09,351 --> 00:18:13,299
running around the field.

256
00:18:13,355 --> 00:18:17,103
He had a six-pack of
abs like all judo athletes,

257
00:18:17,127 --> 00:18:19,335
very strong and muscular.

258
00:18:27,131 --> 00:18:32,215
Then he started to have problems
with his heart, blood pressure.

259
00:18:33,355 --> 00:18:36,315
He lost his spirit.

260
00:18:36,339 --> 00:18:38,799
He used to enjoy a beer.

261
00:18:38,823 --> 00:18:41,407
Later it wasn’t only one, but a few.

262
00:18:42,907 --> 00:18:46,199
He wasn't coping with something.

263
00:18:46,543 --> 00:18:48,919
Every time I think of Dad...

264
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:51,119
I’m aware that

265
00:18:51,147 --> 00:18:53,103
I was too young,

266
00:18:54,531 --> 00:18:57,323
a kid really,

267
00:18:57,755 --> 00:19:00,003
to be able to help him.

268
00:19:00,875 --> 00:19:04,251
Or to be there so he could help himself.

269
00:19:15,783 --> 00:19:18,519
I remember it perfectly

270
00:19:19,279 --> 00:19:21,111
my sister is crying,

271
00:19:21,507 --> 00:19:24,507
my mother says that Dad is dead.

272
00:19:25,716 --> 00:19:27,543
I cried a lot.

273
00:19:29,459 --> 00:19:31,191
It was possibly

274
00:19:32,371 --> 00:19:35,371
one of the hardest,

275
00:19:35,395 --> 00:19:39,719
if not the hardest day of my life.

276
00:19:39,915 --> 00:19:41,787
I wasn’t ready

277
00:19:42,966 --> 00:19:45,481
to lose

278
00:19:46,989 --> 00:19:48,048
my Dad

279
00:19:48,073 --> 00:19:50,035
being so young.

280
00:19:51,475 --> 00:19:53,475
I was growing up

281
00:19:53,555 --> 00:19:59,675
and I was left without a
father and without his support

282
00:20:01,112 --> 00:20:04,255
that I needed so much.

283
00:20:05,459 --> 00:20:06,963
And...

284
00:20:08,035 --> 00:20:09,875
he wasn’t there anymore.

285
00:20:10,676 --> 00:20:12,095
I didn’t know why.

286
00:20:13,870 --> 00:20:16,495
I had so many questions.

287
00:20:17,255 --> 00:20:20,643
Why me? Why my father?

288
00:20:20,727 --> 00:20:22,059
Why now?

289
00:20:23,910 --> 00:20:24,910
And...

290
00:20:49,869 --> 00:20:53,326
After his death I knew

291
00:20:54,412 --> 00:20:57,403
that I needed to grow up
faster than I wanted to.

292
00:21:02,315 --> 00:21:06,155
We were young. Robert
was 15 or 16 years old.

293
00:21:06,765 --> 00:21:08,443
I was 19.

294
00:21:12,235 --> 00:21:15,791
He needed to process it on his own

295
00:21:15,875 --> 00:21:21,780
and it became a driving
force later in his life.

296
00:21:22,115 --> 00:21:25,111
Dad wasn’t there anymore,

297
00:21:25,135 --> 00:21:27,343
so he became responsible

298
00:21:27,367 --> 00:21:31,906
for finishing what he started.

299
00:21:43,851 --> 00:21:45,099
It was in Dortmund

300
00:21:45,127 --> 00:21:46,862
when I first decided to go

301
00:21:47,543 --> 00:21:50,251
to coach Klopp and talk with him.

302
00:21:56,975 --> 00:21:57,975
That conversation

303
00:21:58,507 --> 00:22:02,423
was a game-changer for me

304
00:22:02,591 --> 00:22:06,906
because I could talk with Klopp
as if I was talking to my father.

305
00:22:08,287 --> 00:22:11,591
You cannot consciously take up that role.

306
00:22:13,547 --> 00:22:20,552
It can happen only if the player considers
you both a coach and a farther figure.

307
00:22:20,635 --> 00:22:23,355
I have never consciously
taken up that role.

308
00:22:23,457 --> 00:22:27,255
But what matters to me is
the person behind the player.

309
00:22:27,463 --> 00:22:31,839
I believe that only if you are
at peace with yourself

310
00:22:31,879 --> 00:22:38,671
can you live up to your full
potential as a football player.

311
00:22:40,915 --> 00:22:46,163
Maybe it was the fact that I talked
to a man built like my father.

312
00:22:46,187 --> 00:22:50,771
I felt a connection that I
had been missing for years.

313
00:22:55,955 --> 00:23:01,049
I was judging
him as a soccer player on the field

314
00:23:01,961 --> 00:23:06,268
and I helped him as a person
as much as I could off the pitch.

315
00:23:09,171 --> 00:23:11,423
It was something that I had been missing

316
00:23:11,463 --> 00:23:14,839
and whatever was stopping me inside

317
00:23:15,591 --> 00:23:16,951
let go

318
00:23:17,035 --> 00:23:20,915
and gave me a freedom

319
00:23:22,087 --> 00:23:24,715
to express myself as a footballer.

320
00:23:27,711 --> 00:23:32,386
It gave me wings to fly.

321
00:23:49,475 --> 00:23:52,783
I remember we were
celebrating in an open bus

322
00:23:52,807 --> 00:23:55,931
with more than 500 thousand people.

323
00:24:12,011 --> 00:24:16,387
Suddenly something changed

324
00:24:16,431 --> 00:24:18,179
and Robert hit the gas.

325
00:24:18,223 --> 00:24:21,671
He became the player he is today.

326
00:24:21,755 --> 00:24:25,155
Robert had nobody to learn from in Poland

327
00:24:25,235 --> 00:24:28,035
Actually, everybody had to learn from him.

328
00:24:28,126 --> 00:24:32,355
The better a player you are in a club,
that translates to the national team.

329
00:24:32,431 --> 00:24:35,980
You have more to say on the
field and in the dressing room.

330
00:24:37,703 --> 00:24:38,995
It was amazing.

331
00:24:39,023 --> 00:24:42,211
I scored the first goal
in the national stadium,

332
00:24:42,275 --> 00:24:45,915
in the first game of the Euro Cup
which gave us the lead 1:0.

333
00:24:46,850 --> 00:24:49,803
The roof was closed, and it
was hot like a sauna.

334
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:10,356
When the crowd explodes

335
00:25:10,440 --> 00:25:13,596
and you're the center of
attention there and then.

336
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,748
I wish you could feel
even 1% of what I felt.

337
00:25:23,835 --> 00:25:26,475
Everything started speeding up.

338
00:26:06,031 --> 00:26:08,431
I played a few minutes, sprinted and

339
00:26:08,763 --> 00:26:10,992
tore my biceps femoris in my thigh.

340
00:26:12,287 --> 00:26:14,287
I didn’t know what that meant.

341
00:26:14,763 --> 00:26:17,867
It could have been the end.

342
00:26:17,955 --> 00:26:23,759
He'd have to bury all his
dreams and start a new life.

343
00:26:24,595 --> 00:26:27,271
I took some frozen food
from the refrigerator

344
00:26:27,295 --> 00:26:28,975
and put it on that muscle

345
00:26:29,003 --> 00:26:30,703
hoping it would help.

346
00:26:30,763 --> 00:26:34,411
That I'd be able to return
to training in a few days.

347
00:26:34,475 --> 00:26:37,023
That it was no big deal,
I'd wake up tomorrow and…

348
00:26:37,107 --> 00:26:39,243
But the frozen food didn’t help.

349
00:26:40,883 --> 00:26:43,959
I went to the gym by myself
no plan, no one guiding me.

350
00:26:44,007 --> 00:26:45,755
I wanted to know what would happen,

351
00:26:45,779 --> 00:26:48,599
would they extend my contract?

352
00:26:48,743 --> 00:26:52,911
No coach would tell me
the truth to my face.

353
00:26:53,687 --> 00:26:57,571
But since I got on well with the secretary

354
00:26:57,763 --> 00:26:59,739
I went to her and found out

355
00:26:59,867 --> 00:27:02,359
that my contract wouldn’t be prolonged.

356
00:27:02,459 --> 00:27:04,711
That I was a free agent.

357
00:27:05,435 --> 00:27:07,771
I couldn’t believe it.

358
00:27:08,587 --> 00:27:11,779
Maybe they'll make
him come in the next day.

359
00:27:11,983 --> 00:27:14,605
Maybe he misunderstood something.

360
00:27:14,755 --> 00:27:16,553
That's why, after talking to him,

361
00:27:16,636 --> 00:27:20,123
I was ready to go back.

362
00:27:20,195 --> 00:27:23,413
- "Let’s go and ask again."
- "Mom. There's no one to talk to!"

363
00:27:23,497 --> 00:27:26,647
- "Let's go I’ll talk to them."
- "But there's no one there."

364
00:27:26,695 --> 00:27:27,695
"What do you mean?"

365
00:27:27,735 --> 00:27:29,415
"There's only the secretary."

366
00:27:29,755 --> 00:27:34,291
He walked slowly, his head down.

367
00:27:34,375 --> 00:27:36,871
For the first time I saw fear in his eyes.

368
00:27:37,727 --> 00:27:40,171
But somewhere deep inside I felt,

369
00:27:42,579 --> 00:27:45,223
you're making a mistake. I won't give up.

370
00:27:45,687 --> 00:27:47,851
It wasn’t easy for him.

371
00:27:48,115 --> 00:27:50,451
His Mom helped a lot.

372
00:27:50,491 --> 00:27:53,531
She came with him to the club to talk.

373
00:27:56,080 --> 00:27:57,960
I burst in there with Robert.

374
00:27:58,051 --> 00:28:01,714
My first words were:
"I brought you a treasure".

375
00:28:01,798 --> 00:28:03,479
Robert was a bit withdrawn.

376
00:28:03,503 --> 00:28:06,855
Hidden behind his mom, a young lad.

377
00:28:07,527 --> 00:28:11,803
The coach said, "We’ve got a
lot of treasures like him here."

378
00:28:11,843 --> 00:28:13,699
"We'll see," I said.

379
00:28:13,743 --> 00:28:15,319
He was in a bad shape.

380
00:28:15,367 --> 00:28:18,243
He ran poorly, lacked strength.

381
00:28:18,327 --> 00:28:20,359
He still limped a little bit.

382
00:28:20,435 --> 00:28:25,329
It took almost 2 months
for him to recover.

383
00:28:27,875 --> 00:28:31,782
He thought he wasn’t going
to play long at this level.

384
00:28:31,875 --> 00:28:34,935
I told him, "All right Robert,
first get better.

385
00:28:35,035 --> 00:28:36,915
Play well here for a while."

386
00:28:37,003 --> 00:28:38,783
Robert said, "relax, coach."

387
00:28:38,811 --> 00:28:41,607
"First the Polish top division,
then a foreign club.

388
00:28:41,631 --> 00:28:43,311
We'll see which one."

389
00:28:44,279 --> 00:28:45,839
We went to Katowice.

390
00:28:45,919 --> 00:28:47,855
About 7000 spectators.

391
00:28:48,247 --> 00:28:51,231
During the warm-up the
second coach said to me,

392
00:28:51,331 --> 00:28:54,675
"Look, what a stadium what a crowd."

393
00:28:54,715 --> 00:28:57,549
7000 thousand people in Katowice.
That was something.

394
00:28:57,633 --> 00:29:00,335
In the back of my mind, I thought

395
00:29:00,367 --> 00:29:04,831
It was worth training and working so hard.

396
00:29:04,915 --> 00:29:10,435
For the very first time I felt
the thrill of a football spectacle

397
00:29:22,404 --> 00:29:23,944
It was a magical moment.

398
00:29:24,035 --> 00:29:27,035
The fact that we made it to the
semi-final was a huge success.

399
00:29:27,642 --> 00:29:30,195
When I scored a goal 1 to 0

400
00:29:30,279 --> 00:29:32,739
cheers exploded.

401
00:29:32,823 --> 00:29:35,279
A goal in the Champions League.
Against Real.

402
00:29:37,947 --> 00:29:41,111
I saw that the near post was empty.

403
00:29:41,962 --> 00:29:45,985
When I was taking the shot,

404
00:29:46,048 --> 00:29:52,626
I decided to strike the ball differently,

405
00:29:57,104 --> 00:29:59,463
Wow, two goals in the semi-final,

406
00:29:59,487 --> 00:30:01,279
and then the third goal.

407
00:30:01,323 --> 00:30:03,071
I thought „Hat-Trick”.

408
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:09,139
I fell to my knees

409
00:30:09,163 --> 00:30:13,811
and felt a subtle spasm in my thigh.

410
00:30:13,835 --> 00:30:16,099
I thought "Get up!

411
00:30:16,123 --> 00:30:17,755
Before it gets worse!"

412
00:30:17,779 --> 00:30:19,279
I looked at the clock.

413
00:30:19,411 --> 00:30:21,371
"Jesus, so much time left?"

414
00:30:21,615 --> 00:30:23,567
I had a rush of adrenaline but,

415
00:30:24,175 --> 00:30:26,551
I knew I had to keep calm.

416
00:30:26,895 --> 00:30:28,895
A moment later, the penalty kick.

417
00:30:29,027 --> 00:30:31,155
Half the world was watching.

418
00:30:32,339 --> 00:30:35,755
A young man before a penalty kick

419
00:30:35,779 --> 00:30:37,823
and the chance to score a fourth goal.

420
00:30:56,915 --> 00:30:59,355
If you try, you’ll always be a step ahead.

421
00:30:59,435 --> 00:31:01,755
I had the chance
there was no room for fear

422
00:31:01,823 --> 00:31:05,239
I had to take the ball and score
the fourth goal.

423
00:31:09,236 --> 00:31:12,659
Amazing game.

424
00:31:12,807 --> 00:31:15,475
Robert's four goals were unbelievable.

425
00:31:18,275 --> 00:31:19,915
It became clear

426
00:31:19,959 --> 00:31:23,520
he had a chance to become
the best striker in the world.

427
00:31:28,027 --> 00:31:29,027
It was cool.

428
00:31:29,231 --> 00:31:31,019
4 goals against Real Madrid.

429
00:31:31,043 --> 00:31:35,211
Who scores four goals against Real?
I don't know anyone else but Robert.

430
00:31:39,595 --> 00:31:43,155
In that moment, Robert started
to be seen in different light.

431
00:31:43,507 --> 00:31:46,715
He was in the spotlight.
Everyone watches if you score goals.

432
00:31:46,799 --> 00:31:49,363
His talent was evident.

433
00:31:49,447 --> 00:31:52,447
His mental, technical,
and tactical talent.

434
00:32:05,195 --> 00:32:09,939
When I came home, I regretted
not scoring the fifth goal.

435
00:32:09,963 --> 00:32:15,031
The goalkeeper barely saved it. It
was heading for the top-right corner.

436
00:32:15,255 --> 00:32:17,715
Then I asked Anna to make me some pancakes.

437
00:32:24,423 --> 00:32:27,518
I used to eat milk and
cornflakes everyday for breakfast,

438
00:32:27,602 --> 00:32:29,547
which was bad for me.

439
00:32:29,963 --> 00:32:32,411
But who knew.

440
00:32:33,327 --> 00:32:34,991
I remember...

441
00:32:35,779 --> 00:32:37,531
- What were they called?
- Pampuchy.

442
00:32:37,555 --> 00:32:38,679
Pampuchy exactly.

443
00:32:41,515 --> 00:32:43,423
I didn’t know them before.

444
00:32:44,047 --> 00:32:46,047
They were so easy to make.

445
00:32:46,087 --> 00:32:46,991
Steamed.

446
00:32:47,016 --> 00:32:48,140
They were delicious.

447
00:32:48,447 --> 00:32:50,447
I used to like them.

448
00:32:53,379 --> 00:32:57,339
And the funny name – 'Pampuch'.

449
00:32:58,156 --> 00:33:00,656
Do you remember our first time
living together?

450
00:33:00,911 --> 00:33:02,119
The first months?

451
00:33:02,435 --> 00:33:04,743
Shopping together.

452
00:33:05,631 --> 00:33:07,299
Vanilla cream cheese.

453
00:33:08,795 --> 00:33:10,671
We had this shop across the street.

454
00:33:11,423 --> 00:33:15,339
I don’t know why but that cream
cheese stuck in my head.

455
00:33:17,355 --> 00:33:20,395
I also remember trying to
buy the best bed linen.

456
00:33:20,463 --> 00:33:21,913
Great place mats.

457
00:33:21,995 --> 00:33:24,755
You said: no way! I won’t
sleep under one cover with you.

458
00:33:24,795 --> 00:33:26,423
I remember that.

459
00:33:27,275 --> 00:33:29,555
You always stole the
covers. What could I do?

460
00:33:31,011 --> 00:33:35,303
I remember an important thing Robert said,

461
00:33:36,251 --> 00:33:38,975
he wanted to win me over.

462
00:33:39,087 --> 00:33:42,087
He grabbed my arms,
after we left the cinema.

463
00:33:42,131 --> 00:33:44,563
This was before our first kiss,

464
00:33:44,587 --> 00:33:46,187
and he said,

465
00:33:47,695 --> 00:33:50,863
"Let me show you the man
you don’t know yet."

466
00:33:51,863 --> 00:33:53,531
He was 19 years old...

467
00:33:54,390 --> 00:33:56,123
OK, that touched my heart.

468
00:34:26,891 --> 00:34:28,599
We could have won the game.

469
00:34:31,007 --> 00:34:33,664
If you lose 1 to 2 - it was close.

470
00:34:35,339 --> 00:34:39,547
It took me a long time
to accept the defeat.

471
00:34:39,571 --> 00:34:43,987
But after so many years you are
not afraid that they will call you loser.

472
00:34:50,035 --> 00:34:52,595
Winning is easy. We can all do it

473
00:34:52,635 --> 00:34:55,175
celebrate, be happy.

474
00:34:55,259 --> 00:35:00,507
But when you look at the side
that lost, it's a different story.

475
00:35:04,795 --> 00:35:08,507
I’ve seen many tears. I shed a few myself.

476
00:35:08,631 --> 00:35:11,463
The problem are thoughts like

477
00:35:12,923 --> 00:35:17,137
it was the only chance to
win the Champions League.

478
00:35:19,267 --> 00:35:21,986
I didn’t have any wise words to share.

479
00:35:22,070 --> 00:35:24,955
I picked up a few players from the grass.

480
00:35:24,995 --> 00:35:30,079
We supported each other more
with gestures than words.

481
00:35:32,059 --> 00:35:36,351
Every player loses in a different manner.

482
00:35:36,491 --> 00:35:39,362
Some don’t think too much.

483
00:35:40,285 --> 00:35:47,238
They toughen up and look to the future.

484
00:35:49,311 --> 00:35:52,811
Playing in the final is one thing.
Winning is something different.

485
00:35:53,687 --> 00:35:58,147
I thought we’d reached the limit
of our potential with this team.

486
00:36:07,267 --> 00:36:10,515
I remember talking to Anna

487
00:36:10,695 --> 00:36:13,655
sometime after that final.

488
00:36:15,047 --> 00:36:18,215
She said,

489
00:36:19,671 --> 00:36:23,255
"You are going to win the Champions
League. But you need to be patient.

490
00:36:23,307 --> 00:36:25,015
And the path will not be easy."

491
00:36:37,844 --> 00:36:39,559
Now it's fast by car.

492
00:36:39,583 --> 00:36:45,715
But back then it took me 45
minutes by public transport.

493
00:36:45,795 --> 00:36:49,035
There were these small buses.
The last one left at 8 P.M.

494
00:36:49,063 --> 00:36:51,923
Sometimes there was
another one at 8.30 P.M.

495
00:36:52,007 --> 00:36:54,131
But only twice a week.

496
00:36:54,171 --> 00:36:56,671
Few times I didn’t make it on time

497
00:36:56,711 --> 00:36:58,691
and I had to hitchhike.

498
00:36:58,715 --> 00:37:00,655
I knew people were driving home from work.

499
00:37:00,687 --> 00:37:04,271
Since my parents were teachers,
people knew me and it worked out.

500
00:37:07,515 --> 00:37:10,435
What did I do on the bus, without a phone?

501
00:37:10,835 --> 00:37:13,115
Probably the same as kids today.

502
00:37:13,151 --> 00:37:16,111
Only that I didn’t stare at
my phone but at a window.

503
00:37:16,139 --> 00:37:17,515
A small difference.

504
00:37:19,263 --> 00:37:20,471
I was wondering

505
00:37:20,791 --> 00:37:22,455
how to conquer the world.

506
00:37:24,903 --> 00:37:25,903
Leszno,

507
00:37:26,195 --> 00:37:28,987
I haven't visited my
mother for a long time.

508
00:37:34,280 --> 00:37:36,520
CHASE YOUR DREAMS

509
00:37:37,675 --> 00:37:40,715
I’ve always thought this house was so big.

510
00:37:40,799 --> 00:37:43,007
But it was me who was small.

511
00:37:43,275 --> 00:37:47,071
Once I put some icicles under the gas box.

512
00:37:47,095 --> 00:37:49,507
I wanted to save them for later.

513
00:37:50,723 --> 00:37:53,148
I had no idea that they would melt.

514
00:38:02,170 --> 00:38:03,318
Hey.

515
00:38:04,131 --> 00:38:06,247
Hello.

516
00:38:08,963 --> 00:38:10,587
I'll just grab a nut.

517
00:38:10,747 --> 00:38:12,371
Please do.

518
00:39:06,059 --> 00:39:09,943
A photo from the prom.
Me wearing a salmon-pink shirt.

519
00:39:10,835 --> 00:39:13,355
Here you are visiting me with
Anna for the first time.

520
00:39:13,435 --> 00:39:15,155
- For the first time?
- No.

521
00:39:15,743 --> 00:39:18,203
It was the second or third time.

522
00:39:18,319 --> 00:39:20,271
She was still a blonde.

523
00:39:21,691 --> 00:39:24,023
Here are all my medals.

524
00:39:26,901 --> 00:39:28,041
Look.

525
00:39:31,023 --> 00:39:33,855
Not all are mine.
Some belong to Milena.

526
00:39:33,879 --> 00:39:34,879
Maybe.

527
00:39:34,907 --> 00:39:36,239
Some are volleyball medals.

528
00:39:36,299 --> 00:39:37,795
But you also played.

529
00:39:37,839 --> 00:39:38,839
True.

530
00:39:40,423 --> 00:39:43,591
I won this Walkman in a tournament.

531
00:39:44,019 --> 00:39:46,851
There is still a tape inside.

532
00:39:49,095 --> 00:39:53,539
Do you have any headphones?
You need batteries in here?

533
00:39:54,795 --> 00:39:56,879
It's from Dortmund.

534
00:39:56,923 --> 00:39:58,047
From the first season.

535
00:39:58,087 --> 00:39:59,711
I was number seven.

536
00:39:59,775 --> 00:40:01,779
I had such a big jersey?

537
00:40:02,720 --> 00:40:04,958
I'LL GET BETTER EVERY DAY

538
00:40:07,235 --> 00:40:09,475
The first moment that I wanted to leave

539
00:40:09,634 --> 00:40:13,449
was in summer when
sir Alex Ferguson called me.

540
00:40:13,533 --> 00:40:16,003
It was so thrilling and fascinating

541
00:40:16,751 --> 00:40:22,531
A few years before I
could only see a coach like that on TV.

542
00:40:24,395 --> 00:40:27,969
It was the first time I
realized that the great clubs

543
00:40:28,053 --> 00:40:29,255
may come.

544
00:40:29,607 --> 00:40:33,367
We watched Robert closely.

545
00:40:34,187 --> 00:40:38,583
We scouted him and reached out.

546
00:40:38,611 --> 00:40:42,885
How could we transfer him
from Borussia Dortmund?

547
00:40:43,609 --> 00:40:47,230
Clearly nobody would let a player
like Robert Lewandowski go.

548
00:40:48,607 --> 00:40:54,111
Bayern didn’t come with a pile of money

549
00:40:54,135 --> 00:40:59,934
they wanted to negotiate
without a specific offer.

550
00:41:04,512 --> 00:41:08,187
Bayern knew that if we kept that team,

551
00:41:08,399 --> 00:41:11,647
Bayern wouldn’t be the German
champion 10 times in a row.

552
00:41:14,819 --> 00:41:18,404
I perfectly remember
all the experts and fans.

553
00:41:18,488 --> 00:41:21,595
"Why go to Bayern?"
"You have everything in Dortmund!"

554
00:41:21,677 --> 00:41:25,319
I was a "Star" there.
Though I dislike the word.

555
00:41:25,403 --> 00:41:27,700
Why leave my comfort zone?

556
00:41:43,871 --> 00:41:50,771
Even though we didn’t agree,

557
00:41:50,855 --> 00:41:53,355
everything worked out professionally.

558
00:41:53,383 --> 00:41:58,051
We received the final offer
in December 2013.

559
00:42:15,915 --> 00:42:19,081
It is possible that Robert

560
00:42:19,165 --> 00:42:22,157
was the most important transfer
in the history of Bayern.

561
00:42:30,707 --> 00:42:34,796
I see myself standing
in the locker room.

562
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:39,240
I didn’t expect this, I
put it on like any other jersey.

563
00:42:39,787 --> 00:42:40,787
And then...

564
00:42:43,147 --> 00:42:45,615
what an awesome feeling like

565
00:42:46,495 --> 00:42:48,163
"Wow! I’m here.

566
00:42:48,707 --> 00:42:51,123
I’m wearing something huge."

567
00:42:51,959 --> 00:42:59,874
From the ever first day Robert told me,

568
00:43:00,109 --> 00:43:07,267
"I need to have a team with which
I can win the Champions League."

569
00:43:07,427 --> 00:43:11,347
It wasn't that I was in Disneyland,
and I'll be here a moment.

570
00:43:12,443 --> 00:43:17,071
My approach was, I'm here and
I want to be the main character.

571
00:43:48,787 --> 00:43:52,663
These were the craziest 9 minutes
of football in my life.

572
00:43:52,831 --> 00:43:57,915
Robert goes in. Bum, bum,
bum. Every strike was a goal.

573
00:43:58,259 --> 00:44:00,887
I don’t remember a thing.

574
00:44:00,915 --> 00:44:04,391
Only when I see it on TV
do I remember something

575
00:44:04,415 --> 00:44:07,079
but mostly from a
spectator’s point of view.

576
00:44:07,227 --> 00:44:10,195
Pep Guardiola made this gesture.

577
00:44:10,267 --> 00:44:12,103
I thought,

578
00:44:12,371 --> 00:44:14,871
"Jesus Christ, what is going on?"

579
00:44:15,835 --> 00:44:19,207
This man changed my
perception of football forever.

580
00:44:19,291 --> 00:44:21,855
Not only as sport but as a part of life.

581
00:44:32,775 --> 00:44:36,067
I discovered that football
wasn’t everything.

582
00:44:36,115 --> 00:44:38,239
Of course, I continued playing

583
00:44:38,307 --> 00:44:40,723
but I saw that there was
life off the pitch.

584
00:44:43,099 --> 00:44:44,807
I'm showing where we are.

585
00:44:46,311 --> 00:44:50,239
Let’s see the other
side. No? Doesn’t matter.

586
00:44:58,919 --> 00:44:59,919
Empty.

587
00:45:05,811 --> 00:45:06,811
This is nice.

588
00:45:06,863 --> 00:45:08,363
I can’t see anything, but…

589
00:45:18,446 --> 00:45:21,462
I remember the European
Championships in France.

590
00:45:22,435 --> 00:45:25,774
With Anna we were trying to have a baby.

591
00:45:26,763 --> 00:45:30,711
She came to France for the tournament

592
00:45:30,795 --> 00:45:34,555
and it turned out that a few
days earlier she miscarried.

593
00:45:34,639 --> 00:45:39,441
Despite privately being in pain,

594
00:45:39,763 --> 00:45:41,099
disappointed

595
00:45:41,391 --> 00:45:42,515
sad.

596
00:45:43,511 --> 00:45:48,179
I still had to go out
on the field, face it all

597
00:45:48,723 --> 00:45:52,555
and try to concentrate on the game.

598
00:46:11,547 --> 00:46:13,631
When you approach the ball

599
00:46:13,679 --> 00:46:16,223
your heart rate goes to 200.

600
00:46:19,223 --> 00:46:22,515
The goal becomes small
and the goalkeeper big.

601
00:46:29,103 --> 00:46:32,187
It’s impossible to
stay relaxed and strike.

602
00:46:32,363 --> 00:46:34,071
In training sure, but

603
00:46:34,099 --> 00:46:36,179
with all the pressure and expectations.

604
00:46:36,271 --> 00:46:38,687
In you head it's like…

605
00:46:39,195 --> 00:46:40,819
Practice makes perfect.

606
00:47:15,583 --> 00:47:18,207
He stole it from me.

607
00:47:18,807 --> 00:47:25,607
OK, maybe not stole,
anyway, it's a good story.

608
00:47:29,175 --> 00:47:32,387
There was this moment when
he didn’t score the penalty.

609
00:47:33,255 --> 00:47:35,379
Champions League semi-final.

610
00:47:35,407 --> 00:47:37,487
If he scored, it would
take us to the final.

611
00:47:38,003 --> 00:47:39,463
This penalty kick was

612
00:47:39,487 --> 00:47:40,487
a turning point

613
00:47:40,999 --> 00:47:42,707
because I saw what he did wrong.

614
00:47:43,179 --> 00:47:47,931
I had a mental crisis.

615
00:47:48,179 --> 00:47:52,763
It took me ever longer to strike
and that was a problem.

616
00:47:55,139 --> 00:47:58,635
After his penalty kick,
I could see that he withdrew.

617
00:48:00,254 --> 00:48:03,349
It was my chance to take on the role.

618
00:48:54,043 --> 00:48:56,387
If you want to have any chance,

619
00:48:56,451 --> 00:48:59,651
you need to stand in the goal
as long as possible.

620
00:49:01,295 --> 00:49:05,919
It’s easy to say, keep still, don’t react.

621
00:49:06,695 --> 00:49:11,111
After he hits the ball, no
one has no time to react.

622
00:49:11,603 --> 00:49:15,747
It is extremely difficult to use it well.

623
00:49:35,439 --> 00:49:38,647
Let’s hope it is the last stroll

624
00:49:39,639 --> 00:49:40,639
just the two of us.

625
00:49:41,715 --> 00:49:43,835
Two and a half.

626
00:49:43,859 --> 00:49:46,611
Tomorrow there will be three of us.

627
00:49:47,743 --> 00:49:48,743
Right?

628
00:49:52,407 --> 00:49:54,115
Look here, Klara!

629
00:49:55,163 --> 00:49:56,331
Smile!

630
00:49:58,051 --> 00:49:59,883
Klara, Klara!

631
00:50:03,063 --> 00:50:04,754
She doesn’t want to.

632
00:50:16,195 --> 00:50:20,875
Klara helped me to open up
to people and world in general.

633
00:50:21,475 --> 00:50:25,079
She taught me I could trust people.

634
00:50:25,565 --> 00:50:27,935
She gradually melted my heart

635
00:50:28,427 --> 00:50:32,727
that I used to guard.

636
00:50:36,147 --> 00:50:38,395
When I come back home after a defeat

637
00:50:38,439 --> 00:50:40,324
there is someone waiting for you,

638
00:50:40,395 --> 00:50:45,355
someone who doesn’t know what happened
and is waiting full of joy.

639
00:50:46,399 --> 00:50:47,647
She showed me

640
00:50:49,991 --> 00:50:51,991
how life before and after

641
00:50:52,443 --> 00:50:53,943
are two different worlds.

642
00:50:58,515 --> 00:51:02,927
The presence of family
is very important for Robert.

643
00:51:03,735 --> 00:51:06,627
Every time I flew
somewhere he wrote to me:

644
00:51:06,659 --> 00:51:08,271
Coming back to an empty house

645
00:51:08,295 --> 00:51:09,940
is the worst possible thing.

646
00:51:10,024 --> 00:51:12,045
Especially after a defeat.

647
00:51:14,916 --> 00:51:19,007
My dreams and the dreams of Polish fans

648
00:51:19,063 --> 00:51:23,847
began after my successes
with Bayern Munich.

649
00:51:23,899 --> 00:51:27,483
Unfortunately, that didn’t
translate to the national team.

650
00:51:28,191 --> 00:51:31,023
Things were not as they should be.

651
00:51:31,051 --> 00:51:32,918
The quality just wasn’t there.

652
00:51:45,159 --> 00:51:47,403
Robert glanced at me.

653
00:51:47,647 --> 00:51:49,855
Suddenly it was like in a movie

654
00:51:49,895 --> 00:51:52,023
He was staring at me,

655
00:51:52,087 --> 00:51:53,295
and I kept moving towards him.

656
00:51:53,355 --> 00:51:54,815
Passing through the crowd.

657
00:51:54,839 --> 00:51:56,755
He came straight at me.

658
00:51:56,835 --> 00:51:58,078
Tears in his eyes

659
00:51:58,162 --> 00:51:59,162
and he said,

660
00:52:00,107 --> 00:52:02,107
"I knew it. Here we go again."

661
00:52:02,815 --> 00:52:05,355
You go to your family
when you've won the game

662
00:52:05,483 --> 00:52:07,483
to celebrate with them, to hug them.

663
00:52:07,595 --> 00:52:11,571
It must have hurt him a lot that he
went straight to his wife to get support

664
00:52:11,595 --> 00:52:13,979
instead of going to the
dressing room with us.

665
00:52:14,063 --> 00:52:17,691
Anger after a defeat is a good thing.
Sadness is not.

666
00:52:17,771 --> 00:52:19,479
You could see he was sad.

667
00:52:22,791 --> 00:52:25,599
When the national team loses

668
00:52:25,623 --> 00:52:30,355
the strongest player takes the blame

669
00:52:30,395 --> 00:52:33,101
I think it's not only
in football, also in life.

670
00:52:33,185 --> 00:52:34,571
In every family

671
00:52:34,631 --> 00:52:36,671
the person

672
00:52:36,987 --> 00:52:42,019
who stands out or has a successful career

673
00:52:42,047 --> 00:52:46,978
gets the blame first if things go wrong.

674
00:52:51,343 --> 00:52:55,799
We were confronted with a lot of hate.

675
00:52:55,823 --> 00:52:58,243
I remember that as a mom.

676
00:52:58,267 --> 00:53:00,340
Klara was only a year old.

677
00:53:01,259 --> 00:53:06,599
I worried because
on the one hand I was…

678
00:53:09,871 --> 00:53:13,049
We had a tough time then.

679
00:53:13,115 --> 00:53:14,595
A lot of tough moments,

680
00:53:14,623 --> 00:53:15,871
comments, articles.

681
00:53:16,475 --> 00:53:19,037
We talked it through.

682
00:53:19,531 --> 00:53:21,823
Anna said, "We'll manage this together.

683
00:53:21,851 --> 00:53:24,287
We're going to come
out stronger than before."

684
00:53:26,955 --> 00:53:30,499
We both shed some tears

685
00:53:32,163 --> 00:53:34,995
and had a cathartic talk.

686
00:53:35,191 --> 00:53:37,523
I remember it really well

687
00:53:37,583 --> 00:53:41,835
because there aren't many
conversations when Robert cried.

688
00:53:42,459 --> 00:53:43,459
Fortunately.

689
00:53:47,683 --> 00:53:49,763
We are impartially envious.

690
00:53:49,791 --> 00:53:51,431
We prefer the defeated

691
00:53:51,455 --> 00:53:53,163
those in second place.

692
00:53:53,187 --> 00:53:55,503
Because the winner is self-confident, happy

693
00:53:55,534 --> 00:53:59,226
and not so humble.

694
00:54:00,264 --> 00:54:01,427
We envy the winner.

695
00:54:01,471 --> 00:54:04,171
Robert is like that.
He is a winner.

696
00:54:33,635 --> 00:54:36,955
He asked himself, "why
is it always harder for me?"

697
00:54:36,999 --> 00:54:39,139
I know it doesn’t sound sincere,

698
00:54:39,163 --> 00:54:42,121
how is it that Robert
Lewandowski has it harder?

699
00:54:50,935 --> 00:54:54,019
Individual trophies are great -

700
00:54:54,047 --> 00:54:57,755
they validate your form and your skills.

701
00:55:06,035 --> 00:55:09,195
But the most important trophies
are won with your team.

702
00:55:10,075 --> 00:55:14,715
Even though I made it to the
semi-finals a few times

703
00:55:15,195 --> 00:55:18,090
we didn't make it

704
00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:21,160
to the final of the Champions League.

705
00:55:21,635 --> 00:55:22,883
That hurt.

706
00:55:27,203 --> 00:55:29,787
When I went to Rummenige,

707
00:55:29,995 --> 00:55:32,791
I thought we would have a 15-20
minute conversation.

708
00:55:33,907 --> 00:55:37,899
But we discussed for two hours.

709
00:55:37,967 --> 00:55:43,181
I knew I had nothing to lose and
I needed to say what I thought.

710
00:55:43,265 --> 00:55:47,771
I put it all on the table
and said what was in my heart.

711
00:55:49,351 --> 00:55:52,447
Robert put his cards on the table.
He spoke about problems.

712
00:55:52,703 --> 00:55:57,419
Of course his position in the club

713
00:55:57,447 --> 00:56:01,559
allowed him to question
and criticize things.

714
00:56:01,583 --> 00:56:04,459
In football you can't
change things overnight.

715
00:56:04,863 --> 00:56:08,615
But since then, the way they saw me
and the way I saw myself, has changed.

716
00:56:08,695 --> 00:56:10,867
I noticed that he was dissatisfied

717
00:56:11,227 --> 00:56:13,947
with the way we practiced.

718
00:56:14,087 --> 00:56:16,647
He's a person who
always wants to go further.

719
00:56:16,711 --> 00:56:20,571
He has this ambition to perfect his game

720
00:56:20,671 --> 00:56:23,295
which is an excellent quality.

721
00:56:30,947 --> 00:56:33,115
If you play at the highest level

722
00:56:33,139 --> 00:56:36,303
you can’t be afraid of responsibility.

723
00:56:36,427 --> 00:56:39,255
You can’t avoid taking
shots even if you miss.

724
00:56:39,279 --> 00:56:41,755
I was working on myself,

725
00:56:41,779 --> 00:56:43,823
on my character, on my mental strength.

726
00:56:43,903 --> 00:56:46,831
I often asked, "Do you turn the
lights off in the locker room?

727
00:56:46,915 --> 00:56:48,995
Why are you always the last one home?"

728
00:56:49,059 --> 00:56:53,193
Because Robert asks his team mates
if they'll stay 30 minutes longer

729
00:56:53,276 --> 00:56:54,931
so he could shoot penalties.

730
00:56:56,035 --> 00:57:01,641
"So you have your training and then you
need to stay another 30 minutes." OK...

731
00:57:01,851 --> 00:57:05,311
Winning trophies, Champions
League, becoming the champion…

732
00:57:05,507 --> 00:57:08,859
What is important for me as a coach
is the way we achieve things.

733
00:57:08,995 --> 00:57:13,419
If we enjoy doing it together,
the results will come.

734
00:57:13,956 --> 00:57:16,198
On the highest level

735
00:57:16,282 --> 00:57:19,755
tactics don't make so much
of a difference anymore.

736
00:57:20,366 --> 00:57:24,951
It's the human qualities
that make the difference

737
00:57:25,040 --> 00:57:30,840
through self confidence
and the support of a coach.

738
00:57:30,959 --> 00:57:34,411
I had a good hunch.

739
00:57:34,531 --> 00:57:37,811
When you are a coach
it gives you self-confidence

740
00:57:37,835 --> 00:57:39,771
which you can share with your team.

741
00:57:39,835 --> 00:57:43,651
And so we all felt we could win
the Champions League that year.

742
00:57:49,195 --> 00:57:52,539
Klara went to her first game
when she was 3 weeks old.

743
00:57:52,579 --> 00:57:54,499
It's still a big thing for her.

744
00:57:54,547 --> 00:57:57,047
"Will daddy wave at me? Did he see me?"

745
00:58:00,427 --> 00:58:02,155
We agreed the day before

746
00:58:02,251 --> 00:58:05,483
"Daddy if you score a goal
will you give me a sign."

747
00:58:05,523 --> 00:58:08,435
"Of course darling,
what's the sign?"

748
00:58:08,671 --> 00:58:14,179
"When you score, make a circle,
then something and a heart."

749
00:58:14,435 --> 00:58:17,107
All right. We have a deal.

750
00:58:19,283 --> 00:58:25,863
Before we set off, we had
asked the families to

751
00:58:25,891 --> 00:58:32,375
say some kind words to their men.

752
00:58:32,435 --> 00:58:37,647
Many players had tears in their eyes.

753
00:58:37,671 --> 00:58:41,107
Score lots of goals and win the game!

754
00:58:41,147 --> 00:58:43,979
Win the match honey
and fulfill your dreams!

755
00:58:44,023 --> 00:58:46,647
We'll be waiting for you
at home. We love you!

756
00:58:55,163 --> 00:58:57,287
The pressure was huge.

757
00:58:57,311 --> 00:59:00,019
It was my second Champions League final

758
00:59:00,235 --> 00:59:02,155
and I'd lost once before.

759
00:59:19,047 --> 00:59:20,835
When I hit the goal post I thought,

760
00:59:20,863 --> 00:59:23,971
"too bad I didn't score
a goal in the final."

761
00:59:23,995 --> 00:59:25,723
It could have been enough.

762
00:59:25,751 --> 00:59:28,639
Often one goal is enough in a final.

763
00:59:53,511 --> 00:59:58,861
Until the final whistle
blows you can't believe

764
00:59:59,495 --> 01:00:02,047
that it will actually happen.

765
01:00:24,471 --> 01:00:26,971
Klara fell asleep on me.

766
01:00:28,160 --> 01:00:35,520
I put her into the stroller.

767
01:00:35,571 --> 01:00:37,337
And then suddenly…

768
01:00:37,435 --> 01:00:38,631
I still have the video…

769
01:00:38,655 --> 01:00:41,155
Patryk says "We did it!"

770
01:00:41,239 --> 01:00:44,591
and suddenly I burst into tears.

771
01:00:44,615 --> 01:00:48,447
I was crying but I had to cry quietly
because the kids were sleeping.

772
01:00:52,655 --> 01:00:55,571
We did it!
Anna, we did it!

773
01:01:13,435 --> 01:01:15,711
I fell to my knees after the final whistle

774
01:01:15,795 --> 01:01:22,924
in my mind I saw the long road I
had to travel to get to where I was.

775
01:01:23,763 --> 01:01:25,595
He was truly touched,

776
01:01:25,647 --> 01:01:29,271
his voice was shaking.

777
01:01:29,775 --> 01:01:36,391
He brought the atmosphere
from the pitch, the stadium

778
01:01:36,475 --> 01:01:39,127
home to our family.

779
01:01:39,491 --> 01:01:41,115
I want to show you something.

780
01:01:41,143 --> 01:01:43,271
In the most important moment of his life

781
01:01:43,355 --> 01:01:46,715
he called all his friends

782
01:01:47,315 --> 01:01:48,962
and screamed, "We did it!"

783
01:01:53,035 --> 01:01:56,395
When he raised the Polish flag...

784
01:01:56,447 --> 01:02:01,391
it was symbolic, just beautiful.
He had tears in his eyes -

785
01:02:01,475 --> 01:02:02,915
Now I’m touched…

786
01:02:02,943 --> 01:02:05,147
He kissed the pitch

787
01:02:05,655 --> 01:02:07,863
and looked above.

788
01:02:07,971 --> 01:02:10,887
To my husband who didn’t
live to see this moment

789
01:02:10,971 --> 01:02:12,387
but I’m convinced that

790
01:02:12,411 --> 01:02:15,783
he would be beside himself with pride.

791
01:02:16,403 --> 01:02:18,615
We would all be crying.

792
01:02:19,635 --> 01:02:23,835
We could see his emotions after the game.

793
01:02:23,867 --> 01:02:29,319
After he won the Champions League
an enormous weight had been lifted.

794
01:02:29,343 --> 01:02:32,255
It was important for the entire team

795
01:02:32,647 --> 01:02:37,551
and for him personally.
His emotions were visible.

796
01:02:38,947 --> 01:02:42,843
He finally fulfilled his dreams
and was ready to let go.

797
01:02:43,211 --> 01:02:46,123
Robert was sitting on the grass.

798
01:02:46,151 --> 01:02:50,947
His eyes full of tears
and the cup beside him.

799
01:02:51,595 --> 01:02:53,955
I approached him and said,

800
01:02:54,039 --> 01:02:58,542
"See Robert, you can win
the Champions League with Bayern."

801
01:04:31,579 --> 01:04:33,703
Robert is not a striker
that only scores goals.

802
01:04:33,975 --> 01:04:35,683
The way he moves is unbelievable.

803
01:04:35,739 --> 01:04:38,695
We often can’t see his maneuvers.

804
01:04:39,095 --> 01:04:42,679
It is easier for me because I’m coach,

805
01:04:42,703 --> 01:04:46,791
but when your heart rate is 180 and you
are playing against an opponent it’s hard.

806
01:04:46,875 --> 01:04:49,675
He has an unbelievable
sense of space and time.

807
01:04:49,779 --> 01:04:52,591
He knows when to play or hit the ball.

808
01:04:52,615 --> 01:04:54,655
He understands the game.

809
01:04:54,739 --> 01:04:59,313
If at the age of 30,
or maybe earlier 27,28,

810
01:04:59,396 --> 01:05:02,107
you can learn something
you've never done before,

811
01:05:02,863 --> 01:05:04,803
what does that mean?

812
01:05:05,247 --> 01:05:09,619
It means you had the talent, but no
one saw it, or was able to bring it out.

813
01:05:10,763 --> 01:05:12,971
Many of my capabilities were neglected.

814
01:05:13,779 --> 01:05:16,501
They got suppressed when I was a kid.

815
01:05:16,593 --> 01:05:20,097
When I was dribbling,
I'd lose the ball, of course.

816
01:05:20,181 --> 01:05:22,579
I was told:
'Pass it, don't lose the ball.'

817
01:05:22,611 --> 01:05:24,239
or 'Play it easy, straight.'

818
01:05:24,363 --> 01:05:29,483
As footballers, we start
working when we are very young.

819
01:05:29,511 --> 01:05:33,491
When you turn 20,
it seems you are very experienced.

820
01:05:33,515 --> 01:05:36,773
The truth is that we learn all the time.

821
01:05:36,857 --> 01:05:43,853
Robert has the skills to notice,
learn and use new things as his own.

822
01:05:53,150 --> 01:05:54,150
Hi!

823
01:05:54,275 --> 01:05:55,689
Hi! How are you?

824
01:05:55,767 --> 01:05:56,767
Great.

825
01:07:21,063 --> 01:07:25,927
When I was a small boy
who started playing football

826
01:07:25,955 --> 01:07:28,991
there was this record
by Gerd Müller already

827
01:07:29,075 --> 01:07:32,355
that lasted so many years.

828
01:07:32,391 --> 01:07:36,051
There was only one man who
scored 40 goals – Gerd Müller.

829
01:07:36,075 --> 01:07:41,903
Nobody has ever believed
that someone could beat it.

830
01:07:41,927 --> 01:07:44,758
That's the exact reason
why the little kids

831
01:07:44,842 --> 01:07:46,546
become professional athletes

832
01:07:46,635 --> 01:07:49,795
because they want to beat the record,
to achieve the impossible.

833
01:07:57,991 --> 01:08:00,115
I didn’t think about it during the season

834
01:08:00,163 --> 01:08:06,799
because I didn’t want to burden
myself with any additional pressure.

835
01:08:06,831 --> 01:08:10,371
I started thinking about it

836
01:08:10,835 --> 01:08:12,499
when I got injured.

837
01:08:14,871 --> 01:08:19,159
I always say, it’s like
a stab in the heart.

838
01:08:19,519 --> 01:08:22,743
When you work with the players every day

839
01:08:22,771 --> 01:08:24,255
we are like a big family.

840
01:08:24,279 --> 01:08:27,223
And it feels as if your own
child got injured.

841
01:08:27,247 --> 01:08:30,763
It affects me because I see
how the boys are hurting.

842
01:08:32,843 --> 01:08:36,215
The first few days were difficult.

843
01:08:37,067 --> 01:08:41,899
I was wondering, what are positives
that I can get out of this situation.

844
01:08:54,547 --> 01:08:56,255
Do you want to turn left?

845
01:08:56,320 --> 01:08:58,000
He is riding quite well!

846
01:09:03,519 --> 01:09:05,019
There's not enough snow.

847
01:09:08,863 --> 01:09:12,199
Over time I understood

848
01:09:12,523 --> 01:09:17,315
why my father wanted me to train
other sports, not only football.

849
01:09:18,051 --> 01:09:20,635
I can still feel the difference now.

850
01:09:21,235 --> 01:09:24,803
The problem today is that young
professional players train only one thing –

851
01:09:24,827 --> 01:09:25,827
football.

852
01:09:25,851 --> 01:09:28,751
Robert told me that he tried
many different disciplines.

853
01:09:29,283 --> 01:09:33,459
Athletics, basketball,
handball, ping pong.

854
01:09:41,095 --> 01:09:47,747
Often my mom, my sister and I
would practice tumbles in our garden.

855
01:10:02,634 --> 01:10:05,375
Agility and flexibility are helpful
on the field.

856
01:10:05,399 --> 01:10:09,375
If there is a hard collision

857
01:10:09,399 --> 01:10:11,527
I can walk away unharmed.

858
01:10:15,127 --> 01:10:16,835
You gotta be in good health

859
01:10:16,863 --> 01:10:19,195
for football you have to be tough.

860
01:10:19,219 --> 01:10:21,179
And Robert has that.

861
01:10:52,435 --> 01:10:53,715
I had 39 goals,

862
01:10:53,807 --> 01:10:55,090
and two games left.

863
01:10:56,079 --> 01:10:58,203
I felt the pressure.

864
01:10:58,231 --> 01:11:01,054
I scored the 40th goal
and tied the record.

865
01:11:05,003 --> 01:11:08,047
Later I had a chance in the second half.

866
01:11:08,411 --> 01:11:11,787
Normally, I could close my eyes
and shoot it however

867
01:11:11,811 --> 01:11:13,563
it should have gone in.

868
01:11:18,075 --> 01:11:19,367
But I knew

869
01:11:19,447 --> 01:11:21,303
it wouldn’t be so easy.

870
01:11:21,399 --> 01:11:25,471
There was a certain time
when he got push back,

871
01:11:25,495 --> 01:11:28,971
because the press wrote
a lot about the record.

872
01:11:28,995 --> 01:11:30,775
Can he beat the record?

873
01:11:30,803 --> 01:11:33,491
Should he not break it
out of respect for Gerd Müller?

874
01:11:44,075 --> 01:11:49,475
In the first half I was in the penalty
area three times and could have scored.

875
01:11:49,503 --> 01:11:54,558
But I was looking for Robert
to pass him the ball.

876
01:11:55,539 --> 01:11:58,055
But it didn’t work.

877
01:11:58,079 --> 01:12:00,679
Then he came to me and said,

878
01:12:00,707 --> 01:12:06,251
"Please stop with this fake passing.

879
01:12:07,283 --> 01:12:11,723
We can't force it.
Either this happens or it doesn’t."

880
01:12:11,775 --> 01:12:13,231
I was angry with myself.

881
01:12:13,339 --> 01:12:16,255
I was nervous and annoyed

882
01:12:16,519 --> 01:12:18,811
I thought, "no, I can't do it."

883
01:12:18,835 --> 01:12:22,445
During the game I had the feeling,
"Does he want it?

884
01:12:22,529 --> 01:12:27,347
Does it burden him?
The pressure?"

885
01:12:32,551 --> 01:12:34,591
Fate can be cruel.

886
01:12:35,555 --> 01:12:36,827
What did I say?

887
01:12:36,851 --> 01:12:38,153
"Krzysztof!

888
01:12:38,235 --> 01:12:41,115
Do something!
Or I won’t visit your grave!"

889
01:12:41,219 --> 01:12:43,591
I felt an impulse

890
01:12:43,619 --> 01:12:45,703
that went through my body.

891
01:12:45,727 --> 01:12:47,311
I thought, no! You need to be ready!

892
01:12:47,539 --> 01:12:49,955
There will be one moment,

893
01:12:50,051 --> 01:12:51,343
and you have to make it count.

894
01:13:26,115 --> 01:13:30,000
When Leroy Sané took his
shot and Giki lost the ball,

895
01:13:33,235 --> 01:13:35,675
I knew I had to get it.

896
01:13:39,319 --> 01:13:41,863
It's a split second when you simply know,

897
01:13:42,031 --> 01:13:43,031
This is it.

898
01:13:43,583 --> 01:13:45,915
You’ll score.

899
01:13:46,455 --> 01:13:47,787
You'll beat the record.

900
01:13:47,811 --> 01:13:50,603
You'll make history.

901
01:13:50,691 --> 01:13:53,815
Not only the history of Bundesliga,

902
01:13:53,863 --> 01:13:55,655
but the history of football.

903
01:13:55,703 --> 01:13:59,667
Gerd’s wife, Ushi, said,
'He would have wanted it.'

904
01:13:59,751 --> 01:14:01,871
She took him in her arms and said,

905
01:14:01,955 --> 01:14:04,155
"Robert, I congratulate you.

906
01:14:04,235 --> 01:14:08,155
The record is broken. And
you earned it like no one else."

907
01:14:08,211 --> 01:14:11,599
I started being interested in
football in 1974.

908
01:14:11,631 --> 01:14:13,631
The football of my youth.

909
01:14:13,655 --> 01:14:16,599
Gerd Müller was the star.

910
01:14:16,787 --> 01:14:19,787
And I admit that being Bayern Munich fan

911
01:14:19,859 --> 01:14:22,195
it stung a little bit.

912
01:14:22,219 --> 01:14:24,135
Because it was our ‘Gerd’.

913
01:14:24,159 --> 01:14:26,098
The national striker.

914
01:14:26,355 --> 01:14:29,981
There were comments that maybe
I shouldn't have broken the record.

915
01:14:30,065 --> 01:14:31,619
That it was unnecessary.

916
01:14:32,555 --> 01:14:37,871
I saw something in
people that I didn’t expect.

917
01:14:37,991 --> 01:14:41,243
After Messi had left Barcelona

918
01:14:41,267 --> 01:14:44,811
The club had been somewhat orphaned.
Though that's not the right word.

919
01:14:45,091 --> 01:14:50,047
We didn't have a global star on the team.

920
01:14:50,071 --> 01:14:52,311
The spot was up for grabs.

921
01:14:52,470 --> 01:14:58,095
Two-time best player in the world.
Robert Lewandowski!

922
01:15:04,995 --> 01:15:07,079
I was always fair with Bayern

923
01:15:07,155 --> 01:15:11,111
I shared what I felt, I told them
what might happen in the future.

924
01:15:11,195 --> 01:15:14,981
I knew that in the end Bayern
would do what was best for them.

925
01:15:15,560 --> 01:15:21,729
Lewy stays! Lewy stays!

926
01:15:24,007 --> 01:15:26,835
Fans have good hunch.

927
01:15:26,919 --> 01:15:30,059
He will fulfill the contract. That's it.

928
01:15:30,111 --> 01:15:32,355
Today one thing is certain,

929
01:15:32,379 --> 01:15:36,215
my time with Bayern has come to an end.

930
01:15:36,371 --> 01:15:40,571
I trust, that the club will not
keep me just because they can.

931
01:15:40,683 --> 01:15:46,419
When I put myself in
Robert Lewandowski’s shoes

932
01:15:46,443 --> 01:15:49,739
I can’t understand why
everything was played so openly.

933
01:15:49,955 --> 01:15:52,879
Are we going to have
Lewandowski here next week?

934
01:15:52,903 --> 01:15:54,863
We will see.

935
01:15:54,887 --> 01:15:57,595
Dreams don’t cost a thing.
But players do.

936
01:15:58,395 --> 01:16:00,871
I don’t want to talk about players.

937
01:16:00,903 --> 01:16:08,195
It wouldn’t be fair to Bayern Munich
with whom he has a deal.

938
01:16:23,031 --> 01:16:26,783
Hasan Saklihamidzic said yesterday
that his dad taught him

939
01:16:26,807 --> 01:16:29,743
"When you go, don’t close
the door with your butt."

940
01:16:29,767 --> 01:16:31,727
We are talking about Lewandowski.

941
01:16:32,383 --> 01:16:33,967
Lewandowski!

942
01:16:34,331 --> 01:16:38,095
He would be a good fit anywhere.

943
01:16:38,191 --> 01:16:41,083
I expected that
if I stayed in Bayern one or two years,

944
01:16:41,339 --> 01:16:47,931
my passion and love for
football would dim.

945
01:16:49,199 --> 01:16:51,771
That I'd be lacking additional stimulus.

946
01:16:59,379 --> 01:17:02,751
The president of the Club informed us that
Lewandowski wishes to finish his career

947
01:17:02,783 --> 01:17:04,323
in Barcelona.

948
01:17:04,347 --> 01:17:08,047
I thought, "This is awesome!
Having Lewandowski here

949
01:17:08,199 --> 01:17:09,879
would be spectacular!"

950
01:17:09,903 --> 01:17:13,403
When I look in the mirror
in 5, 10 or 15 years

951
01:17:13,931 --> 01:17:16,803
I wouldn’t be able to look
myself in the eye

952
01:17:17,235 --> 01:17:19,399
and ask,

953
01:17:19,599 --> 01:17:21,767
"Why didn’t you try?"

954
01:17:21,791 --> 01:17:24,791
Usually, Mateu simply calls me.

955
01:17:25,247 --> 01:17:27,495
This time he wanted to talk on Zoom.

956
01:17:27,539 --> 01:17:30,707
A video call? I was surprised but answered.

957
01:17:30,939 --> 01:17:34,231
I was in park with my kids,

958
01:17:34,255 --> 01:17:36,923
I look at the screen and
there is Lewandowski.

959
01:17:36,955 --> 01:17:40,195
I said, "Wait a sec" because there
were many people behind me.

960
01:17:40,294 --> 01:17:42,099
I greeted him and said:

961
01:17:42,387 --> 01:17:45,347
"Robert I know you want to play for Barca.

962
01:17:45,375 --> 01:17:50,599
We are honored. We will try to
organize everything as best as possible.

963
01:17:50,679 --> 01:17:53,347
You are going to love the city.
You'll be happy."

964
01:17:53,507 --> 01:17:57,259
From no money to a deal with Lewandowski.

965
01:17:57,307 --> 01:17:59,391
Financial miracle of FC Barcelona.

966
01:17:59,415 --> 01:18:02,623
The deal between Barca and Bayern is real.

967
01:18:02,747 --> 01:18:06,207
The Pole is going to play
for Culés next season.

968
01:18:06,263 --> 01:18:09,035
Anna asked me every day:
'Do you know anything?'

969
01:18:09,355 --> 01:18:10,411
And I said...

970
01:18:10,443 --> 01:18:11,795
No, it wasn't like this.

971
01:18:11,835 --> 01:18:14,403
I didn't know myself what
was going to happen.

972
01:18:14,427 --> 01:18:15,523
It was shitty.

973
01:18:15,579 --> 01:18:17,807
He left us, disgraceful.

974
01:18:17,831 --> 01:18:21,839
The best thing that could have
happened to FC Bayern. To let him go.

975
01:18:21,863 --> 01:18:25,167
I didn’t like the reaction of management.

976
01:18:25,251 --> 01:18:28,971
I think he belongs to Bayern.
It hurts to see him in a different club.

977
01:18:29,135 --> 01:18:30,135
Killer.

978
01:18:30,251 --> 01:18:31,251
Without honor.

979
01:18:31,303 --> 01:18:32,303
Friend.

980
01:18:32,455 --> 01:18:33,455
Traitor.

981
01:18:33,907 --> 01:18:35,979
He gave it all to the club.

982
01:18:36,331 --> 01:18:40,379
I think that Robert Lewandowski
was disappointed with

983
01:18:40,403 --> 01:18:43,003
how everything ended.

984
01:18:43,623 --> 01:18:48,263
That there was no big, romantic
goodbye ceremony.

985
01:18:48,287 --> 01:18:51,247
Or a big football love that would

986
01:18:51,327 --> 01:18:54,551
last until the end of his career.

987
01:19:16,471 --> 01:19:20,135
The presentation ceremony

988
01:19:20,199 --> 01:19:25,991
was during a work day and 60
thousand people showed up…

989
01:19:26,387 --> 01:19:28,713
it felt unreal.

990
01:19:28,797 --> 01:19:31,008
You can't really believe what's happening.

991
01:19:41,763 --> 01:19:43,879
It's as if you were watching a movie

992
01:19:43,903 --> 01:19:49,279
or a presentation of
players from your childhood.

993
01:20:25,315 --> 01:20:27,195
I got the ball and thought:

994
01:20:27,239 --> 01:20:29,827
"This ball is somehow different.

995
01:20:29,851 --> 01:20:32,099
Kind of more inflated, more artificial."

996
01:20:32,127 --> 01:20:34,251
Or that's what I felt.

997
01:20:42,155 --> 01:20:44,739
I told myself: "Concentrate.

998
01:20:44,763 --> 01:20:49,623
And do what you feel
or what the ball tells you."

999
01:21:08,259 --> 01:21:09,420
I felt...

1000
01:21:10,653 --> 01:21:12,579
love.

1001
01:21:29,475 --> 01:21:34,591
There was a magic between
Lewandowski and the fans.

1002
01:21:34,615 --> 01:21:37,403
He has fun, he is happy. Like a kid.

1003
01:21:37,427 --> 01:21:40,279
I feel like a kid in a candy shop.

1004
01:21:40,319 --> 01:21:45,739
Even though I've seen the candy
before, the joy is even bigger.

1005
01:22:11,787 --> 01:22:15,971
The way he gets on with younger
players is amazing. I didn’t expect that.

1006
01:22:16,107 --> 01:22:22,451
I imagined a natural leader who
scores goals like a robot.

1007
01:22:22,603 --> 01:22:25,079
Since the moment he entered
the locker rooms

1008
01:22:25,323 --> 01:22:28,011
everything clicked.

1009
01:23:12,635 --> 01:23:15,303
My career being in the
era of Messi and Ronaldo

1010
01:23:15,327 --> 01:23:18,539
helped me to get to this level.

1011
01:23:18,563 --> 01:23:23,199
They set the records and scored the goals

1012
01:23:23,280 --> 01:23:26,640
and thanks to them I managed it.

1013
01:23:28,707 --> 01:23:31,123
I've said that Robert Lewandowski

1014
01:23:31,207 --> 01:23:35,483
is the only player I know,
who would play in Pyongyang

1015
01:23:35,511 --> 01:23:40,243
without any audience
and he would still give his best,

1016
01:23:40,267 --> 01:23:43,381
score goals and so on.

1017
01:23:55,799 --> 01:24:01,007
Hundreds of millions of kids
play football worldwide,

1018
01:24:01,031 --> 01:24:03,283
I started to think that

1019
01:24:03,307 --> 01:24:05,555
even if you are the best
player in your team,

1020
01:24:05,635 --> 01:24:08,275
someone out there can be better than you.

1021
01:24:08,315 --> 01:24:11,899
So you need to have
much broader perspective.

1022
01:24:17,111 --> 01:24:18,735
Despite all the comments:

1023
01:24:18,759 --> 01:24:21,303
"You won’t make it.
You're too skinny.

1024
01:24:21,327 --> 01:24:22,451
Too weak.

1025
01:24:22,475 --> 01:24:23,851
Technically not good enough."

1026
01:24:30,787 --> 01:24:34,195
I wanted to prove that a boy from Poland,

1027
01:24:34,219 --> 01:24:36,759
growing up on the outskirts of Warsaw

1028
01:24:38,711 --> 01:24:42,759
is able to achieve great
things and reach quite high.
