From the photos, one can tell that the players had fun during the session and enjoyed this journey to Poland’s football past: “If only we could go back several years…” writes the PZPN’s Łączy nas Piłka portal on Twitter.
Wojciech Szczęsny (pictured above), who is the goalkeeper for Juventus, presented himself in a historic goalkeeper shirt from the 1924 Paris Olympic Games. Krychowiak, Lokomotiv Moscow’s midfielder, dressed as a footballer from the 1938 World Cup.
It is a memorable tournament, because it was Poland’s debut at the Cup during which they played a dramatic game against Brazil which they lost 5:6. Coach Brzęczek wore a suit from the 1920s.
