Votes after the match:
Jindřich Trpišovský (coach Slavie): “It was a fighting match, a lot of fights, interruptions, emphasis. We searched a bit in the first half before we could get Bohemka under pressure. Before the break we managed to score a goal from increasing pressure and improved performance. Olie (Olayinka) prevailed beautifully During the second half, this was our classic, we missed the second goal to calm down, we didn’t change the chances and then we focused on the defense so that we wouldn’t let some opponents stand in. We succeeded and we led the match to winning end. “
Ludek Klusacek (coach Bohemians): “It was a derby, it was crazy. Of course we are disappointed that we lost. But I’m definitely not disappointed with the performance. In fact, we kept Slavia in suspense until the end. Malinko I have comments on the first half, our offensive game. We needed We got under a lot of pressure, maybe the collected goal just before the half resulted in it, which was a pity. If he didn’t fall, Slavia would definitely be more nervous. In the second half, our game already had better parameters. productivity, in such a match we can’t expect to have five or six chances. We had two or three and we can’t use them. The boys got it right, by the end of the match it was on the edge. “
