Prague – The Sparta footballers defeated Pardubice 3: 1 in the 25th round of the first league. All goals fell after the break. After an hour of play, Ladislav Krejčí Jr. scored, and in the end the substituting players prevailed. The Spartans Martin Minčev and Lukáš Haraslín scored first, and Pavel Černý corrected the result in the settings.

The Prague team won the highest competition after two matches and from the third position they lose six points to the second Slavia and nine points to the leader Pilsen. The Eastern Czechs did not win even in the sixth spring round and remained in the penultimate 15th position.

Heča unexpectedly took the place of Sparta in the goal of Sparta, who scored a premier league start in everything. The healing couple with Vitík were formed by the healed Hancko. Markovič stood in the Pardubice goal in the highest competition for the first time since September, the left region of defense was given to the mayor Tomáš Čelůstka. Due to the injuries of his brother and Spartan Ondřej, the siblings did not fight.

After less than a minute of play, Hložek struck the ball with Karabec, but failed in the face of Markovič. In the ninth minute, Pešek managed to finish in the lime, but he fired weakly. In the 24th minute, Vitík headed to the stop Tomel and Markovič cleaned the ball to safety. Immediately, the “scissors” of the home captain Krejčí Jr. from the age of sixteen ended just above.

An insignificant attempt in the area of ​​the area sent Čvančar to the Pardubice goalkeeper. Karabec again sat down the stopper Čihák on the ground during a separate escape, but he sent a lob over Markovič over the crossbar. Neither did Čvančar, whose Markovič fired a quick shot.

“Markovič gave an excellent performance. He had several good interventions in the first half,” said Jaroslav Novotný, a coach from Pardubice, who leads the team with Jiří Krejčí, at a press conference.

At half-time, the Pardubice coaches made three changes. “We wanted to get more on the ball in the second half, so we went through and it was immediately obvious. The quality increased and we had a chance,” Novotný remarked. In the 57th minute, one of the substitute away players fell in the penalty area to the free Kostka, who scored a stick.

The unused people of Pardubice suddenly regretted it, because Krejčí Jr. opened a score after Hložek’s passport. The 22-year-old Krejčí scored the third goal in the league and the first since the beginning of November. “It was important that we scored the first goal. The football was then much more open and the result could have ended maybe 7: 3, because the chances on both sides were significantly more,” said Spartan coach Pavel Vrba.

A moment later, Hancko stretched Markovic with a shot from behind the lime. After 66 minutes, Černý sent a free kick in high over the penalty box. “I have to praise Heč. I got over Hanck there, we tried to place the balloon upstairs and I thought it wouldn’t. He will definitely praise him for it in Sparta,” Černý said. “At 1: 0, Heča also held us, who seized a 100% goal opportunity when the opponent headed from a small lime,” Vrba added.

On the other side, Čvančar missed a close chance. Even in the 77th minute, no one could hit the space between the three bars.

Eight minutes later, after the action of two substituting players, Letenští added insurance. Haraslín found Minčeva in the lime and the Bulgarian striker rejoiced in the fourth hit in the year of the highest competition.

Then Haraslín scored the goal, who slid the ball just behind the goal line. Pardubice has the worst defense in the league with 55 goals collected. In the Black setting. Like Haraslín, he scored the third goal in the league region. “We have to take what we showed in the second half for the next fights, because we were more than a balanced opponent in Sparta,” Černý stated.

“I am sorry that we got the goal again from the standard situation, which is of course wrong. The players who have certain duties did not fulfill them again. We have been paying attention to the standards several times in the last matches,” Vrba added.

Sparta did not lose in four mutual league matches and won for the third time. Letenští pod Vrbou did not find a winner in the highest competition in 21 matches (of which 19 victories) and in this match they gained 35 points out of 546 points.

Pardubice lost the third outdoor duel in the league in a row. “We did not get points from the match, but it is important for us that we have raised our confidence in the other rescue fights that await us,” Novotný said.

We had to play the match in a calm situation at 3: 0. I am sorry that we are a goal again from the standard situation, which is a little wrong, of course. “We’ll have to do more with it than we’re doing so far.”
