Once upon a time, Sport.pl hosted the “Sports Icon” poll. Now we organized a vote for football icons, and invited foreign journalists and our readers to it. We’ve given prizes in three categories: Soccer Player, Soccer Player and Coach of the Year. And we used this opportunity to boast of the legendary Kazimierz Dina, who became a symbol, a hero of a monument. And for whom we are proud of the little in the world so far. – Dina was a part of our Cruyff, and a little James Dean, and let the Kazik statue remind us of that – said Janusz Dorosevic, Kazimierz Dina’s boss

However, we did not ask for the opinion of any of the Polish journalists, only you the fans. In the polls published on Sport.pl from Monday to Friday, you can vote for your favorites and choose over 65,000 people. Sounds we would like to thank you for! Points were awarded in the same way as in the case of journalists’ votes: in the Footballer of the Year category 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and football and coach of the year 5, 4, 3.
“I know all of Dina’s matches from the 1974 World Cup.”
The honorary sponsor of the Football Icon Referendum is Fundacja im. Kazimierz Dina. And the prize for the winners – a statue of “Kazik” in honor of Kazimierz Dina, with a graphic quote from the mural. Graham Hunter, when calling him to vote, replied: “I know all of Dina’s matches in the 1974 World Cup.” We would like more of our friends from the football world to know them thanks to the poll.
Kazimierz Dina was the first pole on the podium in the “France Football” referendum, and he was the starting point for counting Polish successes in such elections. After him, Zbigniew Boniek was on the podium in 1982, and he is also in third place. And now Robert Lewandowski is writing his own part of this story. But Kazimierz Dina was not only the first Polish footballer to ascend the podium, but also the first Polish football icon: no one has many murals in his honor, Dina was the first Polish footballer to have a monument. It reminds us of the most beautiful times, when there was more than one pole in dozens of referendums. Let it happen again at some point.
Kazik, “Icon of Futbol” competition award Sports
What determines the ranking if the number of points is equal?
And here is an important caveat: If the number of points is equal, the highest position is determined by who has the largest number of the first, then the second, the third, the fourth, and the fifth. It is for this reason that Kevin De Bruyne surpassed Sadio Mane and finished second (one of the voters put Belgium first), Lionel Messi was ahead of Cristiano Ronaldo (he was in first and Portuguese), and Zlatan Ibrahimovio was ahead. Virgil van Dijk (the Swede came first three times), Thomas Mueller was ahead of Karim Benz (second place), Alejandro Gomez was ahead of Bruno Fernandes (ranked third), and Ciro Immobile was ahead of Josip Ilicic thanks to second place, Leon Goretzka was ahead of Alfonso Davis (it was a third).
The podium configuration is particularly interesting, as we will not find Messi or Ronaldo, who were nominated alongside Lewandowski in the FIFA The Best poll – they were overtaken by De Bruyne and Mane! On the other hand, the captain of the Polish national team outperformed his rivals, taking nearly five times the vote than De Bruyne II. Without extension, here are the full voting results for Icon Football 2020.
