President Kwasniewski gives the Polish World Cup team a warm send off
"Our country has waited 16 years for the national team to play in the World
Cup. I'm sure you're going there with a huge hunger for success," President
Aleksander Kwasniewski told Polish football players before their departure
to Korea yesterday. Kwasniewski revealed he was going to follow the team and
watch Poland play against Korea on June, 4 in Pusan. Kwasniewski presented
the palyers with a movie showing the most glorious moments of Polish
football, including the immortal victorious draw at Wembley in 1973. "I'd
like these scenes to be an inspiration for you," he said. (Gazeta Wyborcza,
