The Spartans wouldn’t have scored without the opponents’ shortcuts, even if they kicked the crossbar, says Fukal

“In the five matches of the last rounds, Sparta turned around an unfavorable development. But the greatest desire for victory would be of little value if the opponents did not make such mistakes,” says former Czech international Milan Fukal in a commentary for Aktuálně.cz about the events in the football Fortuna: League.

In the five games of the last rounds, Sparta turned around the unfavorable development. He presents it as his main strength, that the players do not give up until the last second and believe in themselves.
That’s why they will probably – and I have no doubt about it – run out for the title.

But the greatest will to win, unceasing combativeness and commitment would be of little use if the opponents did not make such mistakes. Even if the Spartans had kicked the traverse, they would not have reached the points without these fumbles.

Like the current Bohemian goalkeeper Valeš. I don’t want to discuss his short circuit, but it is absolutely incomprehensible to me.

Or in the previous derby with Slavia, the Norwegian stopper Ogbu. It is said about him what an excellent defender he is, that the Czech league is already small for him, but he will show such a dash. That doesn’t fit his assessment.

Sparta kicked seven penalties in the last matches, all in a tie, not a single one was ordered against them.

From the mathematical theory of probability, it’s rather strange, but I don’t want to get into the controversy of whether they were or not. That doesn’t belong to me.

However, I return to the claim that she forced the opponent to commit illegal interventions or other offenses against the rules with her activity and will.

However, I see mainly big failures on the part of the opponents. Many favorable circumstances have come together for Sparta in the spring, so they will celebrate.

The Slavist striker Václav Jurečka caught the admirable shooting form now, he knocked down the defending champions Plzeň with two goals. I’ve heard opinions that if he hadn’t been injured after coming to Slavia and had been fine earlier, Slavia wouldn’t have let matches in which they were better, but didn’t take advantage of the chances, and the whole league would look different.

However, it happens in football that an injury occurs that damages not only the player, but also the entire team. I have known Václav for a long time, I liked him a lot in Slovácko, he is leading the team to win the cup. He moved on naturally, he is in Slavia. And he proves his shooting quality again.

Sporting director Jiří Bílek revealed that the club is looking for a goalscorer in goal, which it has been missing since the departures of Milan Škoda and then Petar Musa. Now someone may ask why they are looking for him when Jurečka shot himself. But competition is always good. Slavia wants to move forward, they are always looking for reinforcements to improve the squad. It’s alright.

Hradec Králové said goodbye to the asylum in Mladá Boleslav with a cruel loss against Liberec 0:4, it is supposed to go to its new stadium in the fall. It’s a great pity, there shouldn’t have been such a farewell.

I was very worried about Hradec when he decided to play the league, which he honestly won, on a foreign field. It’s not nice, you’re never quite home, you lose fans who don’t want to go anywhere else.

But the team managed both years, never worried about saving. Therefore, I would rate the stay in Mladá Boleslav only positively. Except for the conclusion. He is sad.

Brno coach Martin Hašek did not start the league’s top scorer Jakub Řezniček in the match in Ostrava. If it should be a response to the fact that he did not convert two penalty kicks in the last round against Pardubice, then it is very wrong.

Even if he threw away five of them, such a fighter, who drags the team all year with his goals, deserves trust. There was probably something else in it, probably some health problems, otherwise it would be very strange.

Pardubice goalkeeper Nita performed the same shortcut as Valeš. I’m not going to discuss that one either, it’s also completely incomprehensible. The home team were better, they were heading for a win and actually for peace, they couldn’t fall straight away. And now this. Nita had held them up many times in the spring, now his hesitation came at the worst moment.

It is already clear that the fight for rescue, including the barrage, concerns only Brno, Pardubice and Zlín. It will not be about the transferred game, but about the psyche.

Paradoxically, in this respect, the last Zlín is now the best, although it is losing on other points. Unexpectedly, he managed the match in Pardubice, when he should have lost, and returned to the game. However, he has to fight it out on his own.

Pardubice received a blow, but they will recover from it, they are used to the pressure, it accompanies them all year.

So the worst thing I can see is Brno, which got into an unflattering mood. Everything will be at stake in the last match at home with Zlín. Who will get another chance in the playoff and who will fall immediately.
