“Therefore, take the English torment as a memento,” the coach urged his team not to underestimate the home opponent in Tuesday’s duel, which starts at 6 p.m.
“The last time I caught an artist was last year.

“We have to play actively from the very beginning, to put the home team under pressure so that they can’t breathe for a moment. And unlike Friday’s match in Albania, to be more determined and more productive in the end, “coach Suchopárek did not hide that he expects a better performance from his team, and even more goals than in the previous duel.
