Already during the autumn, the red and whites found out that they could play without Nicolae Stanciu. However, they tested the variant without a creative Romanian representative mainly in matches against stronger opponents. Against Karviná, they had to conquer the densely and carefully guarded goal of the guests on Saturday afternoon. And they didn’t make it.
“We lacked above-standard performance from one of the offensive players, who will do something when we can’t get there. For example, he scores from the standard situation or foul himself in the last third of the field. We tried penetration passes, but we didn’t succeed, “calculated the annoyed Slavic coach Trpišovský after a shocking explosion and a 0: 1 loss to the team, which rejoiced at the first win in the current league year.
Stanciu’s abilities would suit this type of match. “Of course he helped us a lot in these matches. He was able to come up with a final pass, to draw attention to himself, “the red-white bench commander realized.
“Nico is one of the most creative players here. Of course, the red-and-white captain Petr Ševčík would help us in this match.
In the first half, the Danish legionary Mads Emil Madsen stepped on Ševčík’s side, rather a little higher. References went well to him during the winter training, the general also fought against Baník Ostrava, but he did not make it with Karviná. He lacked a larger drive, a benefit, although he ended up quite deftly once.
Only half-time lasted on the field, Trpišovský replaced Madsen during the break. “But he didn’t disappoint with the performance,” assured the Slavic strategist. “He took it a little because we wanted to make a change. bet on such a more typical ten, “Trpišovský explained, adding that he planned to rely on Alexander Bah’s cooperation with the recent Lukáš Masopust on the right.
However, the effect did not come, Slavia worsened during the second half, and Peter Olayinka did not give a penalty. The center of the field then changed even more when, after an hour of play, Tomáš Holeš withdrew to a stopper and Daniel Samek took over the position of defensive midfielder.
Still seventeen-year-old talent, Karviné started the goal with a cheap loss. “He is a great football player, I don’t think it will be a problem for him to get away with it. Of course we will help him with that. We are one team, everyone makes mistakes and sometimes someone fails. In my opinion, breaking one’s head from one match is nonsense, “Ševčík supported his younger teammate.
The samek was then not visibly well. “It is true that he did not do so well for the rest of the match. In some situations he was inaccurate. He lost the ball, but we had to deal with the situation. A completely free player was finishing, we have to be with him, “Trpišovský saw more mistakes.
