🚨 Robert Lewandowski on Barça asking him not to score last year to avoid paying bonuses to Bayern: “I don’t really want to talk about. I have too much respect for Barcelona and for the people who work there. I was aware of the situation the club was in. There were many other situations where you had to sacrifice something personally for the good of the club”.
“In short, it was about a bonus that would have to be paid depending on the number of goals I scored. And at that time, Barcelona was looking for every single euro. The bonus wasn’t a small amount. For me personally, it wouldn’t have changed anything, so I didn’t really have a problem with it”.
“Did I listen to them? Well… it stays in your head. It stays there, even if it’s just a small percentage, but it was enough that once I actually hesitated—whether to score a goal or not. And at the highest level of football, that’s enough”.
“Sometimes those 5%, even 3%, decide whether you win or whether you score”, told @BogRymanowski.
It's so funny when you can see ignorant tweets. I used to think this way until I went up North and saw that what they watched the most was La Liga games. Chelsea vs Arsenal could be playing and you'd go to a viewing center in Kano and see them showing Getafe vs Villareal instead.
Over here, if Chelsea vs United game is fixed at the same time with El Classico.
Just go to your house and watch the El Classico cos every Viewing Centre will be showing Chelsea vs United match.
My Dad accidentally taught me an important lesson about HONESTY which is the reason why I can never be involved in any form of FRAUD;
When I was in JSS1, my dad was so broke and we were all living in the same room, my parents and six kids;
One night, I woke up to my Dad....
The quotes & replies to this tweet show how ignorance thrives. People doubling down without fact checking or gaining knowledge. Not even when they're corrected.
@thiis_user don't be disappointed cos what will they now do when they see AY that ran 66 miles (106km).
@Big_Cheque Are you familiar with the concept of endurance running? My guess is no.
Go educate yourself. This is her strava link of the race. https://t.co/7TblnsAIfB
You'll see all the stats about the run. I'll bet every dime that you'll have no comprehension of what those stats are.
Are you joking? That's Affiong, an incredible endurance runner who I personally aspire to emulate. She's one of the many people who ran 65km in the earliest hours of October 1.
You people just talk down on things your small minds cannot comprehend.

@henrygodween Such maturation you've attained my man. Very few are able to build perspectives like this at that juvenile stage of life.. so you were merely living out the norm at the time.
That it was hard doesn't mean it won't be done.
This one took a lot but did it!
50km done, dusted and in the bag in less than 5 hours.
Now, if e easy, run am too
