In February last year, he hit Leicester, a month later he scored against Belgium. At that time, Lukáš Provod was at the top, but a severe knee injury threw him down a lot. He added more goals on Sunday against Pardubice, ie after more than a year.
In the 41st minute, he safely converted a penalty. “I train them with goalkeeper Aleš Mandous. “We were already laughing and saying we had to keep doing it,” Provod smirked. “But first I asked Ondra Lingr if he didn’t want to go digging because he was fighting for the king of shooters. calmly gave the ball a chance.
Nine minutes after the break, he ended a successful action of ex-Boleslav partners, when David Jurásek centered and Daniel Fila prepared the ball for him. The escort then aimed at the hat-trick. “Everyone who scores two then thinks of him. I had a chance, I got a good pass from Ševa (Ševčík) for lime. I think I prepared it quite well. Maybe I could have fired right away or I should have had a better second touch, but I kicked the balloon, “Provod described.
It is very possible that he will soon be back on the hat-trick. After injuring, he jumped into the third league match, quickly returning to caliber. He moves a lot on the field, he wants to play, he doesn’t hide, the team leads. He spins the game, controls the offensive actions of the red and whites. “His speech is absolutely dominant and complex,” nodded Slavic coach Jindřich Trpišovský. “We missed such a player in the middle of the field,” he added.
Trpišovský is full of satisfaction and points out a positive contribution. “The game intensity is not that high, but it has matured mentally. He makes terribly good decisions on the field. Gaming intelligence, choice of location, solving situations, you can immediately see that it is elsewhere. We are all excited to have him back, “shone the commander of the Slavic bench.
But logically is not yet won, the match rhythm is still catching, it is fine-tuning the form. “There were mistakes,” he warned himself after a two-goal evening. “Physically, it’s still not one hundred percent. I feel certain reserves.”
He doesn’t even expect to roll right away as before. He remains determined, humble and maintains his foresight. “I’m calmer on the field, you take it differently. I’m glad I feel the way I feel. The knee is above standard, it’s better than I expected. Match by match I feel better and physically. I’m especially happy to be on the field and doing what I enjoy. I cycled for ten months and was locked up in the gym. I enjoy being with the boys on the playground again, “said a native of Pilsen.
“It is a pleasure to work with him, Lukáš is a huge professional. He did his best to return, I think he also got space from us to feel comfortable, “Trpišovský appreciated.
Provod can only start in Czech league matches, he is not allowed to play in the Conference League. It does not figure on the cup list. When three names could change in them before the start of the spring part, Provod did not get there. He was still injured and the staplers logically registered players who could jump in immediately. The coaching staff will thus have to come up with an eleven for the quarterfinal retaliation of the third European competition against Feyenoord Rotterdam without him.
“We are very sorry. But those players (Provod and David Hovorka) have returned after a serious injury, so from this point of view it is good for their condition that we do not overload them. In addition, Lukáš has a minor fatigue problem that catches up with him after the match, regenerates him for a long time and puts the thing together. The boys are not used to such a wrestling load after the injury. It would force us to put them together and then there would be a risk of injury or overload, “Trpišovský explained.
After a 3: 3 draw in the Netherlands, Provod will support his teammates in the Netherlands against the Feyenoord only from the stands. “It simply came to our notice then. I know what wrestling entails in Europe. There was an incredible pace and scenery at Feyenoord … But I’m glad that the boys can do it without me, that I can watch it and that Slavia is successful. The main thing is for the team to tread and be successful. I’m glad I can cheer for the boys. I believe that they will be able to retaliate on Thursday, “Provod said amicably and optimistically.
