Ten thousand spectators were sad, Zbrojovka got four goals from Slavia
The sold-out stadium, where 10,200 fans arrived according to official data, did not see the home crowd. “The 0:4 result is cruel. We played against great quality, Slavia has a very well composed team. We didn’t start badly, our goal was to get the spectators excited to play the match for them. Unfortunately, our offensive quality was low, in ninety minutes we hit the goal only once, which is too damn little for a good result, it can’t be enough against such a good opponent,” Brno coach Richard Dostálek regretted.

After previous performances, this time his charges did not please him. “I’m very disappointed that we didn’t score the goal that ten thousand people clearly deserved. This was also the reason why we encouraged the players at halftime to push bravely to the end and people could play a goal once. Slavia can be beaten, but this time we did little to win,” Dostálek said.
Prague won in the top competition for the fourth time in a row and lead the incomplete table by two points. Zbrojovka did not score for the first time in the league finals and dropped to eighth place, but it is good that the match on the field of the defending champion from Pilsen has been postponed.
The Slavists decided already in the first half, when they scored three goals between the 19th and 36th minutes. First, captain Stanislav Tecl made his mark, who then assisted David Douděra’s goal. After that, home midfielder Jiří Texl scored an own goal. “I am satisfied that we managed to win, of course, and I think even after a good performance. We didn’t concede a goal and scored four. We knew very well what kind of opponent was waiting for us, he had a lot of points and points looks very good, dangerous on the offensive. It was a great backdrop, the spectators created a great atmosphere for league football. I’m happy that they came and that we succeeded even in a combination of what we’ve been through and despite the changes in the lineup,” said Prague coach Jindřich Trpišovský.
From the 57th minute, the visitors finished without the suspended stopper Aiham Ousou. In a running fight in the corner of the field, he pushed Alli, who was on the bench, and received a yellow card from the head referee Klíma. However, after the intervention of the video referee and viewing of repeated footage, the arbitrator changed the original verdict, and despite the indignation of the Slavist players, the Swedish stopper was finally excluded.

Nevertheless, Christ Tiéhi scored fifteen minutes before the end. “Our performance was not the best, but we had passages when we played well. It’s a shame that we couldn’t score a goal,” lamented stopper Lukáš Endl.
