Pulkrab crowned the victory of Sparta over Teplice with two goals, Letenští are third
Sparta footballers won the 14th round of the first league over Teplice 4: 2. The Prague team was sent to the lead by Ladislav Krejčí Jr. in the 30th minute, who then did not change the penalty. Dávid Hancko added a second goal in the 39th minute, followed by Matías Succar on the other hand. Matěj Pulkrab increased Pulkrab’s Jakub Mareš after 74 minutes following a nasty collision.
Sparta defeated Teplice in the league for the fourth time in a row and followed up on an outdoor 2-0 win from last week’s duel in the home cup. The Prague team partially managed the mood after a 2: 2 draw in the last round in Ostrava and Thursday’s 0: 3 defeat in Lyon in the European League and moved to third place in the table by two points behind the leader Slavia. The people of Teplice also lost the fifth league match under coach Jiří Jarošík and dropped to the last place by the score.
Jarošík, who played in Sparta, had to improvise in the line-up due to many absences. Chaloupek and Bulmaga from Teplice at the league premiered, and veteran Ljevakovič, who ended his professional career last past, also joined the team. Sparta lost the injured Hložka and Čelůstka for several weeks.
The Letna team had a big advantage from the beginning, but in the first half hour they created only one big chance. In the 13th minute, Minčev hit from the angle of the bar. The people of Prague helped themselves to lead with the standard. Ladislav Krejčí Jr. jumped on Pešek’s corner kick in the 30th minute and scored his first league goal from the opening round with a header.
In the 34th minute, Ljevakovič played in his own lime and Judge Machálek ordered a penalty after a video referee’s intervention and a review of the situation. However, Krejčí made the goalkeeper Grigar stand out and did not add the second goal in the match.
In the 38th minute, Minčev headed the line between the crossbar and the bar with his head, but in a minute he increased the favorite. Pešek scored his second assist and Hancko fired Grigar from the lime line. He scored in the second league duel in a row. The people of Teplice responded in a flash. After Kodad’s tapping, Succar pushed through with a ground attempt to the back pole and scored the first goal in the Czech league.
Shortly after the break, Hancko fired just outside. Severočeši managed to torment the favorite in the 56th minute and in the 56th minute, the Spartans had to hold the goalkeeper Nita against the shot of the substitute Krunert.
On the other hand, Krejčí and the alternating Pulkrab did not push the ball into the net. The Prague team did not do very well in the second half, after a rough pass, the guests went into a two-on-one break in the 75th minute, but Trubač hurriedly hit the defender. In two minutes, the Letna team increased. After Hanck’s long pass, the alternating Pulkrab escaped and dug the ball into the net through Grigar.
But the North Bohemians have not given up yet. Krejčí made a superb strike after 79 minutes with a shot straight in front of the goal after a long ball through the middle, but one of the visitors’ defenders got a foot in at the last second and warded it off for a corner. The final calm was brought to the favorite only in the 88th minute, when Pulkrab hit the open goal after a break and Haraslín’s pass.
