Summary

Liverpool Football Club has won trophy after trophy. It has enjoyed success after success. Supporters on the Kop - the most famous stand in football - have worshipped hero after hero. But some of them are more unlikely than others. Jerzy Dudek suffered third degree burns as a child in his native Poland. He grew up in a flat in an industrial Eastern Bloc town. He learned to play football on a patch of grass with bricks as goalposts and worked as a miner in his teens. A career as a professional footballer seemed unlikely - some would say impossible - but this is the story of how he overcame those odds to star for Liverpool FC in the most remarkable Champions League final of all time.
