About this listen

In the fourth episode of Legends of the World Cup, we travel to Pulheim, a quiet town near Cologne, to tell the story of Florian Wirtz: the boy who debuted in the Bundesliga at seventeen, who suffered a torn ligament at the peak of his explosion and came back brighter than ever to become the engine of the unbeaten champion Bayer Leverkusen and the great hope of a Germany that has spent too long searching for its place at the top of the world. An episode about creativity, resilience, and what it means to carry the future of a nation in your feet.
