'''Gerard Cieślik''' (27 April 1927&nbsp;– 3 November 2013), also known as '''Gienek''', was a [[association football|football]]er of [[Ruch Chorzów]] (1949-1955 Unia Chorzów, 1956 Unia-Ruch Chorzów). Playing for the [[Poland national football team|Poland national team]], he is most noted for having scored two goals against the [[Soviet Union national football team|Soviet Union]] on 20 October 1957 at [[Stadion Śląski]]. The rather small striker (163&nbsp;cm, 59&nbsp;kg) was capped 45 times and scored 27 goals.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.goalgate.de/spieler,1033,gerard_cieslik.html |title=Gerard Cieslik "Gienek"<!-- Bot generated title --> |access-date=15 June 2008 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110719032658/http://www.goalgate.de/spieler,1033,gerard_cieslik.html |archive-date=19 July 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://wyborcza.pl/1,75248,14886109,Gerard_Cieslik_nie_zyje__Legendarny_pilkarz_Ruchu.html |title=Gerard Cieślik nie żyje.

==Biography==
Born in [[Chorzów Batory|Wielkie Hajduki]],<ref>[http://www.weltfussball.de/spieler_profil/gerard-cieslik/ Gerard Cieslik<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> now a part of [[Chorzów]], he spent his entire career with Ruch, from July 1939 to June 1959, a tenure which included victory in the 1951 Polish Cup, and three [[Ekstraklasa|Poland Master]] titles (1951, 1952, 1953). In total, he scored 177 goals for Ruch. He became the club's coach and scout in 1959, and having never cut ties with the team, is seen as a great example of loyalty within the Polish game.

He was drafted to [[Wehrmacht]] 1944–45 and transferred to Denmark.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.dziennikzachodni.pl/artykul/1033161,gerard-cieslik-nie-zyje-niepokorny-zolnierz-wehrmachtu-ktorego-chciala-legia-warszawa,id,t.html|title=Gerard Cieślik nie żyje: Niepokorny żołnierz Wehrmachtu, którego chciała Legia Warszawa|date=3 November 2013}}</ref>

In 2003, after a particular group of Ruch fans controversially displayed a banner with the German name for [[Upper Silesia]], Cieslik expressed his opposition to the banner and urged the fans to respect the memory of the club's founders who had been patriots and participated in the [[Silesian Uprisings]] against German rule of Silesia.<ref name=banner>{{cite news | first = Wojciech | last = Todur | url = http://miasta.gazeta.pl/katowice/1,35019,6991132,PZPN__Fani_Ruchu_maja_kibicowac_po_polsku.html | title = PZPN: Fani Ruchu mają kibicować po polsku | date = 2 September 2009 | work = Gazeta Wyborcza Katowice | access-date = 3 September 2009}}</ref>

In 2006, the documentary film ''Das Alphabet von Gerard Cieślik'' was presented by Antena Górnośląska as part of the exhibition ''Oberschlesier in der deutschen und polnischen Fußballnationalmannschaft – gestern und heute. Sport und Politik in Oberschlesien im 20. Jahrhundert''<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.haus.pl/pl/doc/pub1/Programm_2007.doc |title=Archived copy |website=www.haus.pl |access-date=2 February 2022 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120726090452/http://www.haus.pl/pl/doc/pub1/Programm_2007.doc |archive-date=26 July 2012 |url-status=dead}}</ref> covering Upper Silesians who played for the [[Poland national football team|Poland national team]] and/or the [[Germany national football team|Germany national team]].

In 2006, he signed<ref>[http://www.polen-news.de/puw/puw78-04.html 29. Gerard Cieślik, emeryt, Chorzów]</ref> a protest against [[Roman Giertych]].
