Slavic football player Jan Kuchta had a slight virus in the past few days, but he still entered the second half of the European Conference League match against Feyenoord Rotterdam and scored a goal at 2: 1. However, he would trade the goal if the Prague team kept the lead in the power play and did not get the goal in the setting for 2: 2.
In addition, the national team forward regrets that due to the third yellow card in the competition, he will lose the group’s last match in Berlin with Union Berlin, which will be a direct battle for the second place.
“I would definitely be happier if, for example, we were first in the table and have a certain progress. Of course I like goals, goals in European cups are extremely valuable for me, but I would exchange them for team success and winning,” Kuchta told club television.
After half time, Lukáš Masopust was replaced and in the 66th minute he sent Slavia to the lead from the shot after Tomáš Holeš’s shot, which was not maintained by the visiting goalkeeper. He scored in the group for the third time. “I just have it in me, I give these goals. I also like them. I always expect that it can happen that the goalkeeper loses the ball. It is my job to be prepared for it. But I am terribly sorry that it was not a winning goal, because such the match would deserve our victory, “Kuchta told a news conference.
Shortly after the goal, Kuchta fell after a fight with the defender in the lime, but the Finnish referee Mattias Gestranius awarded him a yellow card for simulating. “I sat on the bench in the first half and saw the judge’s meter. I don’t want to look like I’m making excuses. But I stand by the stopper waiting for me. I saw him go into fights. Let’s say I was expecting another In any case, regardless of the referee’s decision, I had to solve it better or pass the ball to a better teammate, “Kuchta mused.
The people of Prague played a power play from the 36th minute, yet in the third minute they collected the setting. “It hurt us that Alex Bah had to be replaced a while before due to injury. We stood, we argued unnecessarily. At the same time, we probably had in our heads that we would somehow kick the match. “We underestimated the repressing of the kicking player. It’s a great pity. The trackers and the whole defense played fantastically and we will then make a mistake that costs us victory. We are very sorry,” Kuchta regretted.
Before the match, his start was uncertain. “I was already slightly ill at the national team, then it got a little stronger. But I took two days off and they put me together. The coach asked me before the match if I would be available for a portion of minutes. I didn’t hesitate, I wanted the team “I’m fine now,” Kuchta said.
After the yellow card for the alleged simulation, he will not play a decisive match to advance to the elimination phase in Berlin. “Of course I’m sorry, it will be a decisive match that every player wants to be in. But now I have no idea about it, I’m still the head of the match with Feyenoord,” said Kuchta. “Whether I can play or not, I will definitely go to Berlin. I want to be there, I want to support the boys. We will do our best to succeed in Berlin, we are going there to participate in the spring,” added the 24-year-old striker.
