Krzysztof Surlit (13 October 1955 - 23 September 2007) was a Polish footballer.

Career[edit]

Surlit was known for his free-kick ability, which were regarded as one of the best in Polish history.^[1] During one match, he told the defensive wall, "You better step back, because I can hurt you" before deliberately hitting the wall which resulted in a goal.^[1] With Widzew, he helped eliminate Manchester United from the 1980-81 UEFA Cup with a free kick goal, and scored two goals against Juventus in 1982/83.^[2]

After retiring, Surlit became a coach in the Polish lower leagues, but was frustrated that they could not do what was obvious to him.^[1]
