I’m not sure if there is a more epic way to start a game of football than by playing the Star Wars theme. That’s exactly what happened on Friday night when Poland hosted Iceland in a friendly game at the Warsaw National Stadium.
We don’t know exactly why the famous John Williams-penned music was chosen by the Polish powers-that-be. Maybe it’s part of a clever marketing strategy ahead of the Christmas release of the latest Star Wars film. However, we suggest that, from now on, every football match on earth starts with this epic piece of music…
Poland won the game 4-2, by the way, with Swansea’s Gylfi Sigurdsson on the scoresheet for the visitors and Robert Lewandowksi bagging a brace.
