Brisante Hintergründe zum Polen-Knall!
Robert Lewandowski (36) will unter dem derzeitigen Trainer Michal Probierz (52) nicht mehr für die Nationalmannschaft seines Heimatlandes auflaufen. Das hat der Weltklasse-Stürmer am Sonntagabend in einer Instagram-Story bekannt gegeben.
[–>Wie verschiedene polnische Medien nun berichten, soll Lewandowskis Verhältnis zur Mannschaft und Trainer aber schon länger schwer zerrüttet sein.
Die Situation sei sogar so schlimm gewesen, dass seine Mitspieler nach der Verkündung, dass Lewandowski als Kapitän abgesetzt werde, freudig reagiert und sogar applaudiert hätten! Das schreibt der polnische Journalist Dariusz Dobek von „Przegląd Sportowy Onet“.
Lewandowski und Polens Nationaltrainer Michal Probierz (52) beim WM-Quali-Spiel gegen Moldau (2:0) am Freitag
<!–>
Dobzek: „Es gab kein nervöses Umherschauen, um zu sehen, wie man reagieren sollte, es gab sofort Applaus.“
Sebastian Staszewski vom polnischen Portal „Meczyki.pl“ bestätigt dies, schreibt: „Ich habe gehört, dass die Mannschaft die Entscheidung akzeptiert und begrüßt hat, gerade, weil Piotr Zieliński (neuer Kapitän, Anm. d. Red.) in der Mannschaft sehr beliebt ist. Viele Spieler vermeiden es aber zu sagen, dass sie froh sind, dass Robert weg ist. Sie haben Respekt vor ihm.“
Lewandowski-Knall: Beleidigungen, Diva-Verhalten & Stunk
Grund für das schwierige Verhältnis der polnischen Mannschaft zu ihrem Superstar soll vor allem seine respektlose und divenhafte Art sein, heißt es in den Berichten.
Dobek zufolge hat Lewandowski seine Mitspieler und den Trainerstab nach dem 2:0-Sieg gegen Malta im März in der Kabine wüst beschimpft.
Wieder Pfiffe gegen Cucurella: „Jetzt wird’s popelig!“
Kurios: Lewandwoski wollte sich eigentlich für ein Spiel mit seinem Verein, dem FC Barcelona, drei Tage später schonen, wurde deshalb auch erst spät eingewechselt. Trotzdem verärgerte dies wohl den Ex-Bundesliga-Star (BVB und Bayern) so sehr, dass er in der Kabine Trainer und Mitspieler anfuhr. Anschließend hatte er seinem Ärger auch öffentlich noch Luft gemacht und im TV die Arbeit von Trainer Probierz kritisiert.
Doch damit nicht genug. Auch Lewandowskis Entscheidung, auf die Länderspiele gegen Moldau (2:0) und am kommenden Dienstag in der WM-Quali in Finnland wegen „mentaler Müdigkeit“ zu verzichten, soll nicht gut angekommen sein.
Als Lewandowski am vergangenen Freitag dann plötzlich doch zur ersten Partie in Chorzów erschien – offiziell, um seinen Kumpel Kamil Grosicki zu verabschieden – würdigten sich Star und Trainer keines Blickes. Nach der Hymne gab es eine halbherzige Umarmung.
Die polnische Presse schreibt inzwischen sogar schon von „Krieg“ und einem „Tornado“.

Washington Spirit vs. Gotham FC, NWSL Championship: Trinity Rodman’s status hangs over title match
Two star-studded teams in the Washington Spirit and Gotham FC will meet in San Jose for the NWSL Championship, a competitive match likely in store as each side chases their second league title, but the big question looms -- will Trinity Rodman play?The pair took contrasting roads to the NWSL Championship, the No. 2 seed Spirit advancing as the favorites in their matchups while Gotham played spoiler as the No. 8 seed, eliminating the runaway NWSL Shield winners in the Kansas City Current and last year's champions Orlando Pride. To describe this as a David vs. Goliath-type game would be a misnomer, though, Gotham have been inconsistent, but they won the Championship just two years ago and boast an MVP nominee in Esther Gonzalez.While Gonzalez and new Gotham recruict Jaedyn Shaw headline Juan Carlos Amoros' team, the attention will also […]

Last year's runner-up appeared in a spot of bother when he was locked at 5-5, but he stepped on the gas to win four out of the next five legs and land a stunning 121 with the aid of two bullseyes en route to victory. "Obviously I am never happy when I am losing, at 3-2 down I then got it back to 5-all and I just had to kick on there," Littler said on ITV4."I knew there were no more breaks, we were on (stage) until the end and I managed to […]
