“Slavia was maximally effective in Jablonec, but football in that field was crying again. I am not surprised to coach Trpišovský that he protected the player from injury,” says former forward Petr Švancara in a league commentary for Aktuálně.cz.
Two shots on goal, two goals, Slavia was maximally effective in Jablonec. We found out that she is a war, she will create clouds of chances not only in our league, but also at the European level, we enjoy her attacking game.
There will also be a match – a holomajzna, which is not nice when we don’t know her, but it’s unique. Points are important to her. You don’t play well, but you win, a great thing for the psyche of the team. The home team were well prepared for Slavia in terms of defense, if it was not for the fundamental mistake of the Jablonec goalkeeper, it would be much harder.
Football in Jablonec cried, Slavia complained about the field again. I have said several times that the terrain will decide a lot about the title, in Liberec it did not manage, in Jablonec it did. For that reason, coach Trpišovský left Hovorka and Provod, I have never experienced anything like this in my career, while we played at much worse. But it has its reasons and logic: to protect players for more important matches. They were injured on such bumps, his experience is unfortunate. They have excellent pitches in Eden, I am convinced that Zlín will beat. And the superstructure in the group for the title will take place in stadiums, where the surfaces are relatively high quality.
Immediately after the victory over Ostrava, the Pilsen coach Bílek praised himself that his team would welcome Sparta at home in the superstructure. It’s really quite important. As marketing, as fans come out, it will be sold out, it’s a benefit of the money. But also in terms of sports, the audience can create a fantastic atmosphere, he is the twelfth player. There is almost hatred between Pilsen and Sparta, it will boil, home soil is definitely an advantage. But who wants to win a title must be able to win outside.
Baník was led by assistant Galásek, coach Smetana was dismissed. I don’t know what’s going on inside, if he didn’t argue with anyone, but Baník I really liked the way he played football. Although he scored a lot of goals, the results were also not the best, the home defeat with Karvina certainly did not help, but he went up in terms of games.
So I don’t know what the club management really wants. Winning, without debate, I understand, but when the team gets up in the game, the results should come. I don’t understand why coaches change so quickly in the Czech league without being given space to work. Unless, of course, it was humanly disputed in the club, but I don’t know. Baník with this staff definitely does not have a top three.
Adam Hložek deserves great admiration. One hundred matches, over thirty goals, about twenty assists, these are unbelievable numbers. If he stayed here for another five years, he would probably become the youngest league gunner in the history of the Czech league, maybe even federal, I don’t have such an overview there. The club is usually entered in their thirties. Hat in front of him down. Sparta fits him, she raised him, even though we from Brno know that we also have our fingers in it. Sparta probably won’t hold him anymore, he’ll leave in the summer.
I pray for him to move where he will play regularly. Don’t just choose business, don’t end up on a bench. He still has a bit of a problem that he can’t stand in the top matches on the European or even the national scene, but we still have to take into account that he is not yet twenty. That’s why we don’t want him to decide every match right away. In my opinion, it will be even better, in three years it can play in some big famous club, so that it does not spoil it with a reckless transfer.
Sparta is said to be in the best shape now. They have a decent one, but I dare not call it the best. They had one at the start of coach Vrba, when they won what they could, but then it slipped. I’ll wait for them to face the strongest opponents. Let’s keep the end of the league, there it will be seen who, as it is, sets up a mirror for all three cuffs playing for the title.

Former league forward, one of the greatest talents in Czech football at the time. In the highest competition, he played 309 matches for nine different clubs, including Slavia and Zbrojovka Brno, in which he scored 59 goals.
I do not underestimate Slovácko, but it did not take advantage of the odds against Sparta, on the contrary, it made it much easier for her with mistakes. The most distinctive was made by the Russian legionnaire Ljovin. Athletes find it very difficult abroad. We all stand for Ukraine, we help as much as possible, he is Russian, he stands on the other side. I can’t get into his situation at all, it’s complicated. He’s on his head, he doesn’t know what to do.
He may be sorry that there is a war, but he is Russian and everything is pouring in on him, he gets eaten from all sides that Putin has gone crazy. His psyche is broken and he is making mistakes. For athletes, this is very pronounced, they are visible in the media. I don’t think he’ll even play until he’s done, it wasn’t his first mistake.
There is a new shooting discovery by David Douděra. I haven’t noticed it much yet, I hope it’s not just a shooting at the end of spring and it will continue. Maybe he won’t fit in like Jan Matoušek and show something else. He benefits from the fact that he has Marek Matějovský under him, who gives it to him beautifully. It also helps that Coach Hoftych, who talks to him, trusts him, encourages him and it kicks him. More than once he realizes that he has scored a goal five laps in a row, his self-confidence will increase. He grabbed Fazon, he is still bothering Pilsen.
