Lukas Podolski has a very successful football career behind him. World champion in 2014 with Germany, German champion a few years earlier with Bayern Munich. Among others. But the 39-year-old winger still plays in Poland, his country of origin, with Górnik Zabrze.
And on Saturday, during a friendly futsal tournament, Podolski engaged in a duel that is unlike him. With a victim: a certain Kuba Siedlecki. This amateur player probably did not imagine that the former German international could adopt a dangerous game.
However, this is what happened when Podolski made a “killer” tackle at the height of his opponent’s knee. Who, fortunately, escaped without injury. The former Arsenal player did well, with only a yellow card.
Nothing to get excited about either. After the match, Podolski posted a photo on his social networks alongside his “victim”. And this message, to round things out: “There were emotions on the pitch, but after the match, everything was resolved! Sorry for the serious mistake. All the best for the season.”
