The Katowice invite you to a duel with Slavia Prague U19
Both teams met during the summer training near Otava a year ago and more than seven hundred fans saw a great match. The guests from the capital were already leading 7: 3, but the Katowice took over and eventually caught up. This gave birth to a wild draw. The people of Katowice were therefore very pleased when they received an e-mail from the currently best domestic club asking if they wanted to repeat the match. “We were very happy and we did not hesitate to accept the offer at all,” said the head of the club, Tomáš Hajdušek, who added the memory of last year’s duel: “It was a very successful event. I remember best how happy our boys were after the 7: 7 equalizer. ”
This time, too, the Strakonice branch of the SK Slavia Praha Friends Department is preparing for Katowice, and Katowice has a large fan base for this, so a high visit can be expected again. Can it get closer to the seven hundred paying like last time, even if it’s played on a weekday?
“It’s summer, maybe the weather will be nice. We rely on the fact that the fan will find a way to good football, whether it is played on Saturday or Tuesday, so we expect a visit of over five hundred spectators, “said the head of Katowice.
The fact that the young men of the championship team will present themselves in Katowice is already an invitation in itself, so the home team is not going to do anything special. “Good football, good beer, good sausages – that’s the basis,” concluded Hajdušek.
For Katowice footballers, the match with the nineteen Slavia Prague is the general at the start of the divisional season. He then awaits them on Sunday, August 1, from 5 pm on the Slavoje Mýto playground.
