Kuba Krzyżanowski after #WISCRA: Playing in the Kraków derby is something special

After winning the Kraków derby, Kuba Krzyżanowski spoke about a dream come true, the emotions surrounding the match against Cracovia, and the unique atmosphere created by the White Star fans.
Kuba, I recently came across a video from three years ago on Wisła's channel where you told young guys to follow their dreams. Has your dream come true today?
It's definitely one of my dreams. Of course, playing in the Kraków derby is something special, and not everyone has a game like that on their résumé, so I'm very happy. Of course, it was a special game, and I really think this win will do a lot for us, including mentally.
And did you feel stressed or full of adrenaline before today's game? Was it hard to get anything down, or did you try not to think about the match?
There may have been a bit more tension, because it's always a derby. I tried to approach it like any other game, although, of course, derbies have their own rules and, as I said earlier, this is a special game.
Was winning today's game one of the main goals for this part of the season, to beat Cracovia and have a little more peace of mind?
Of course, winning the derby was the goal, but our goal is to win every game. So I wouldn't say this was the most important game of the season, because we simply try to take a broader view and win every game.
And about the fans: did they do a good job today?
I think so. When you're playing a match, you don't always hear the fans cheering or pay attention to the stands, because the green rectangle is what matters most. I think the atmosphere was great today.
