After Barcelona’s victory over Real Madrid in the Spanish Super Cup final yesterday, the Catalan team’s players celebrated in the dressing room. In one of the moments, striker Lamine Yamal opened a live on his social network and accidentally caught goalkeeper Szczesny smoking a cigarette.
In the broadcast to more than 300,000 people, Yamal showed some employees talking to Szczesny, who was smoking a cigarette. At the time, the young attacker turned the camera and said that it could not be recorded.
Last year, Szczesny made an in-depth statement about his addiction to cigarettes in an interview with the Spanish newspaper Sport. The Polish player revealed his habit and said he has already lost the battle.
— There are things in my career that are better not to imitate. In some ways, I can’t be a good example, but I try to be the best version of myself and I try to set the right example for my teammates and the kids watching. About smoking, please don’t follow me and don’t do that. I lost that battle — said Szczesny.
Szczesny was on the bench in the final against Real Madrid, last Sunday. Spaniard Joan García took over the starting line-up, while Ter Stegen also did not enter the field at the option of coach Hansi Flick.
