„And what did he have for breakfast?“ – half jokingly, half seriously asked football enthusiasts after Polish footballer Robert Lewandowski (27) recently scored five goals in one match in Germany. But breakfast is the biggest secret of the football player who breaks records.
It seems that scoring five goals in one match wouldn't be a big miracle, if not for the fact that all of them were scored in a record-breaking short time - just nine minutes. After this miracle, the forward of Bayern Munich and captain of the Polish national football team engraved his name in the history books.
And what did he have for breakfast that day?
At this moment, the most frequently asked question by football enthusiasts would probably be best answered by the football player's wife, Anna. A professional nutrition specialist and the founder of a popular healthy lifestyle blog in Poland immediately stated that it is the biggest secret that she would never reveal.
On social media, Anna publicly expresses her love for her husband and her pride in him without holding back in front of the relentless defenders on Robert's football field.
The brunette beauty even openly boasts that watching her husband score one goal after another becomes boring.
If there were any offended, it's doubtful they would dare to be upset with such sharp jokes from Anna.
The petite woman could have silenced them not only with her tongue.
Anna, whose maiden name is Stachurska, is a former karate champion, a multiple world and European championship winner.
In 2007, the couple met at a seminar for students at a sports school in Warsaw, got engaged after five years of friendship, and a year later, in June 2013, exchanged gold rings at the St. Anne's Church in the Polish capital.
By the way, the famous Robert, known for his strong faith as a devoted Catholic, strictly refused to live under the same roof with his beloved until marriage.
Anna did not object at all to her future husband's decision. She understands her husband's dedication to the Catholic faith and sports.
Anna is not only his biggest fan, but also his teacher.
They not only enjoy spending leisure time together, but also train together.
Given his strong muscles, one of the best football players of recent times admitted that Anna significantly contributes to his excellent performances on the field.
The wife advises her husband on how to achieve the best physical shape and also controls his diet.
Robert and Anna Lewandowski have long been considered one of the most beautiful couples in Poland. These young, beautiful, always holding hands and smiling widely spouses are often called the Beckhams of Poland by the German and Polish press.
Robert and Anna indeed resemble the stylish British couple - former footballer David and Victoria Beckham. The couple, now living in Germany, often visit their homeland, where Robert gladly gives autographs and advice to his youngest fans.
„You just have to work very hard and then everything is achievable“, said the most famous Polish footballer of our time.
Robert Lewandowski usually spends all his vacations in his homeland. This summer, before the start of the Bundesliga season, he enjoyed time with his family and friends in their new house on the shore of a lake in the picturesque region of Mazuria in Poland.
Robert, born and raised in Warsaw, must also be thankful to his beautiful wife for his victories. The sporting talent is probably in his blood. Both of Robert's parents are athletes.
Robert's father - Krzysztof Lewandowski - was a former Polish judo champion. He was also passionate about football and played in the second Polish football league. From his father, Robert also received his first football lessons.
However, the future football star was just a lean teenager when his father died suddenly from a stroke.
„His death was the hardest period of my life. Suddenly, I became the man responsible for the house. I had to grow up quickly. My father's memory drives me forward“, said the football star.
During his teenage years, due to his resemblance to the character Bolek from the Polish animated film „Bolek and Lolek“, Robert was nicknamed after him, as he stood out from his peers not only with his leanness but also with incredible energy.
Therefore, coaches tried to turn him not into a football player, but into a long-distance runner. They failed. The dream of the thin but determined and ambitious teenager was to become a famous football player. „Eat as much bacon as you can“, Robert's first football coach urged him.
But at any cost, his mother Iwona, a former professional volleyball player, urged the future football star to pursue his dream.
The sports genes were inherited from his parents and followed in his mother's footsteps by his younger sister Milena. She represents the Polish youth volleyball team.
