II. League: Slezák Appointed Lehota pod Vtáčnikom Coach

BRATISLAVA. Richard Slezák became a new coach of the newcomer Monacobet Lehín Lehota Pod Vtáčnikom.

The club announced this on social networks.

He won the competition with Sered

The 52-year-old coach in the past season led ŠKF Sereď to the first in III. League West and celebrated the procedure.

However, the club was late for the second league application and finally could only apply for the fourth league. Coach Slezák did not continue after these events in Sered.

“I was without a robot for two months, I had been a long time,” said an experienced coach for Sportnet.

In the past he also worked in Trenčín, Interi Bratislava and FC Wacker Innsbruck, Austria.

“Overall, he has more than 180 matches on the bench, which shows his stability, professionalism and experience at the highest levels,” he presented the coach on his new club.

“We are convinced that his tactical thinking, expertise and human approach will help our players develop and achieve better results,” says Lehoty pod Vtáčnikom.

Slezák alternates on the bench of Dušan Oravec, who after the last season elected the best coach III. League West.

Slezák ended up in the coach and captain poll.

The second league will punish you

The agreement between Richard Slezák and the leadership of Lehota pod Vtáčnik was born quickly.

“I had something broken in Slovakia IV Austria, but the second league is the second league. We agreed and we are going to work,” said Richard Slezak.

On Saturday afternoon he had already completed his first training with the team.

“In part, I know the team, we worked in one competition, of course, there were new players.

“Let’s try to kick it, bring a new impulse,” he said.

Lehota is the only team II. League, which has not yet scored in the current season.

“The quality of the competition is higher. The second league will punish you for mistakes for which you did not score in the third league. Lehota played a very good match with Považská Bystrica and Slovan B. There is something to build on,” said Richard Slezak.

A difficult start in Žilina

On Sunday, a new coach is waiting for a sharp start, Lehota Pod Vtáčnikom will start at the B -B -Žilina.

“It will be very demanding. We know how Žilina works, there are young boys who are brought up in the best academy in Slovakia. This is the harder,” the new coach pointed out.

He did not talk about the specific goals with the club owner, but the main one is clear: rescue.

“They invest considerable resources in it, so they would of course want to save the second league. We have two and a half months to mobilize it and get some points,” concluded Richard Slezák.
