Origins: Ewa Pajor
Episode description
Tuck in for tonight’s Soccer Bedtime Story as we follow the extraordinary journey of Ewa Pajor—from chasing a ball across a Polish farm to becoming captain of Poland’s national team at UEFA Euro 2025.
Born outside a small spa town, Ewa trained against a barn wall, outscored the boys, and overcame homesickness and vision loss to become one of Europe’s most feared strikers. With 136 goals at Wolfsburg, a record-breaking transfer to Barcelona, and a history-making goal that sent Poland to their first major women’s tournament, Pajor’s story is one of grit, heart, and belief.
Perfect for young dreamers, soccer fans, and families who love underdog stories, this episode reminds us that greatness can grow anywhere—even in the quietest corners of the countryside.
