Barcelona striker Robert Lewandowski has announced the toughest defender he has faced in his career, as he made it clear that his only goal was to stop him regardless of anything else.
Lewandowski played in the German Bundesliga from 2010 to 2022, where he was a player in Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich, before joining Barcelona during the last summer transfer window.
Robert Lewandowski made important statements, which were reported by the global network “Goal” in its German version: “There was a player named Zambrano in Frankfurt.”
“All he wanted to do was break my leg, he wasn’t even looking at the ball. He pissed me off because the referee didn’t see what was happening. Defenders are often allowed to do more things than attackers. It’s not an equal fight.”
Zambrano quickly responded to Lewandowski’s statements through his diary on his official account on the social networking platform “Instagram”, and wrote: “Dear Lewandowski, thank you for reminding me a little bit with a lot of love (laughing).”
And the Barcelona striker added: “As you know, this is football, my friend, we always play hard and leave our lives with every cross. I appreciate you very much for what you did throughout your great career and it is an honor for me to play against you. I wish you success always.”
It is worth noting that Carlos Zambrano is a Peruvian player who previously played for Schalke 04 in the 2009/10 season, St. Pauli in 2010/2011, and Eintracht Frankfurt in the German Bundesliga from 2012 to 2016.
