Pilsen – Zlín 3:0. Chorý led a clear progress, Sparta awaits in the final of the cup

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com April 24, 2024

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

Less than a week after being eliminated in the quarter-finals of the Conference League against Fiorentina, Viktoria Plzeň accomplished an important task. At home, they easily trampled Zlín 3:0 and slipped into the final of the MOL Cup, where they will challenge Sparta. The match had a European stamp for West Bohemia – it almost certainly secured participation in the summer 3rd preliminary round of the Europa League, from where it is very close to the main autumn phase on the international stage.

Pilsen will face last year’s competition finalist and league table leader Sparta Prague in the battle for the winning trophy, the game will be played on Wednesday, May 22 from 6:00 p.m. The West Bohemians, as the worst placed team in the cup coefficient for the last five years, will host the final at their stadium.

Any drama was over at Doosan Arena before the crowd took their seats in the stands. Cheick Souaré already found Tomáš Choré with a precise cross in the 6th minute and the Pilsen striker sent the favorite into the lead. From that moment it was practically over, the “cobblers” couldn’t do anything against a concentrated opponent. They got three “pieces”, got on the bus and headed for the long haul home.

“The goal was to make it to the quarterfinals, we didn’t think about anything else. We concentrated enough. When such a goal is achieved, it’s a feeling of joy and let’s give it some relief,” said the satisfied coach of Pilsen, Miroslav Koubek, who will experience the first domestic cup final in his career.

The success with Zlín catapulted Plzeň to an attractive end of the season against Sparta, the finalist of the last two years and the current leader of the FORTUNA:LIGA. The place and date of the match are given: again the West Bohemian Doosan Arena, the exact date was specified by the organizers from Strahov soon after the Wednesday semi-final. Pilsen will play Sparta for the trophy on Wednesday, May 22. Before the final round of the superstructure, where the same teams will meet again, just in Prague at Letná.

“I am happy that we reached the finals, in the season and the quarter-finals of the Conference League, we are in third place in the league and we are rebuilding the team, new players are adapting to us here. This year is very interesting, it brought unexpected things. The final is a beautiful thing, but only the winners count in history,” smiled Koubek mischievously.

Viktoria was extremely focused on the home match against Zlín. She knew that this was one of the most important matches of the peak season. She did not allow any resistance with quick goals and pleased her fans. Lukáš Červ scored for the first time in Viktoria’s jersey after a beautiful solo and a precise finish, Tomáš Chorý closed the game again for a 3:0 score.

“I have nothing to evaluate, there was practically nothing from our side. We came to participate in the semi-finals of the MOL Cup, I don’t understand that. Pilsen was clearly better from the first minute, we didn’t cope with their speed, we weren’t aggressive enough, we didn’t access their players and they were far from each other,” Zlín coach Bronislav Červenka was angry after the easy elimination.

As a finalist of the cup and practically certain bronze medalist of the league, Plzeň will very likely get a ticket to the summer qualification in the 3rd preliminary round of the European League. When Viktoria also secures third place in the domestic competition, the result of the final does not matter and the club will go to fight for the second European competition. If he is eliminated from the 3rd preliminary round, he will have the possibility of correction in the play-off for the Conference League.

Participation in the cups is one of the key goals of the entire Pilsen organization. From the point of view of the sports development of the rejuvenated staff and especially because of the generous bonuses – this year’s run in the Conference League, where Viktoria ended up in the quarter-finals at Fiorentina after 15 matches without defeat, earned almost 250 million crowns.

The team finishes a challenging but very successful season. It is very likely that he will continue under the leadership of the experienced Miroslav Koubek, who won a new contract in 1972 with his successful work in the west of Bohemia. As already reported by the Sport daily and the iSport.cz server, he has a new one-year contract on the table, all you have to do is sign it. It should be clear soon after the final game of the regular season, Plzeň ends on Sunday with Teplice.

/PHOTO GALLERY/ In the sixth semi-final match of the extra-league play-off, Sparta’s hockey players reached for victory and advancement to the final in Třinec. After two goalless periods, they took the lead in the third, but together with the siren Třinečtí, they scored a goal and the referees had to decide at the screens whether it fell in time. And so it was, he fell in 59:59! Cienciala dealt a decisive blow to the Praguers in extra time, and the final opponent Pardubice will be decided on Saturday in Prague.

A goal was expected in the sold-out Werk Arena until the beginning of the third period, more precisely at 41:00, and Sparta scored it. The Třinec defender Šenkeřík made a mistake during the pass, followed by a quick pass from Kousal to Najman, who made his way from the edge of the left circle with a cross shot to the left post on Kacetl’s catcher.

In the following minutes, Ocelář saved the post three times, so at 59:59.8 on the power play, Voženílek happily sent the match into overtime by throwing from behind the goal against the right concrete of goalkeeper Kovář. Třinec made a big turnaround at 69:21 with a two-pointer by Cienciala, who tipped Adamek’s shot from the blue line.

Collision of hockey and floorball? It is said that the super final will not even be threatened by ten overtimes

“We are happy that we grabbed it, it’s 3:3 and we are going to Prague to fight for the final,” said Třinec striker David Cienciala, who assisted the first goal and scored the decisive second himself. “I was looking out there and I’m glad it fell there,” explained David Cienciala.

“Before that 1-1 tie, I looked up at the clock after my blocked shot and there were three seconds left. Dan (Voženílek) managed to throw it skillfully and got it into the goal,” praised his teammate David Cienciala.

The Spartan joy was frozen by the coach’s challenge, the series returns to Třinec again

“We played a great match, we were active. But hockey is played for sixty minutes, we should have finished it by now. Damage. But I have nothing to blame anyone, the boys played great,” said Sparta’s coach Pavel Gross.

Třinec – Sparta 4:1. The steelworkers live! They were saved by the awakened marksman Daňo

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com April 7, 2024

The steel dynasty is not over yet. The hockey players from Třinec won 4:1 over Sparta in the fourth semi-final of the Tipsport Extraliga playoff, and with a score of 1:3, they are returning to Prague in the battle for the final. The first period was key to the victory of the reigning champions, for whom striker Daniel Voženílek could start again. The Slezans first defended the double overpowering of the Praguers, then opened the scoring with their numerical advantage and soon increased their lead. The awakened Slovak shooter Marko Daňo took care of both goals with the first hits in the series. However, the Spartans are still closer to advancing to the battle for the Masaryk Cup, who can confirm their progress on Tuesday on the pitch in the O2 Arena.

Striker Daniel Voženílek returned to Třinec’s lineup after a one-match disciplinary punishment, and coach Zdeněk Moták changed the composition of all four attacking formations. In the beginning, after fouls by Dravecký and Čach, both for slashing the opponent’s stick, Sparta had the possibility of a long power play, including 84 seconds in five against three, but Kacetl resisted. Kempný especially fired dangerously.

At 6:57, the Steelers were rejoicing at the Kempné penalty. For Kovař, Daňo’s puck arrived at the time when, after pushing Moravčík, Voženílek fell into the goal area and was in contact with the Spartan goalkeeper with his feet. The people of Prague took the coach’s challenge, but referees Jeřábek and Kvétoň recognized the goal after checking the video.

This was followed by the expulsion of the guests, in which they defended themselves. In the 13th minute, Hudáček made a breakaway, but the puck escaped him. In three minutes, the home team was leading by two goals. Daňo skillfully freed himself in the right circle and beat Kováře between the concretes through the shadowing Voženílk.

At the beginning of the second half, Kacetl dealt with the run of David Vitoucha and the subsequent stop. On the other side, after Helewk’s pass, the gunner missed Růžička, who had not scored in the 15th game in a row. In the 29th minute, Sparta reduced the score when defender Krejčík scored from the blue line over the shadowing Hrabík, which decided Saturday’s duel in overtime.

In the 34th minute, Sobotka failed to beat Kacetl from a stoppage, and Krejčík didn’t beat him immediately with another attempt. On the other side, Kovář dealt with Voženílkova čeča and Růžička got the finish, who did not aim accurately. With a shot from the left circle, Daňo had the opportunity to complete the hat trick, but the Spartan goalkeeper hit a trap.

At the start of the third period, after Čach’s pass, Nestrašil passed the puck past Kovář with a backhand, but Sobotka took it away from the goal area. Daňo also threatened after the break. In the 46th minute, Sparta’s captain Řepík came close to equalizing, hitting the left post.

At 48:54, during a power play due to a bad substitution by Sparta, Nestrašil ensured the lead from the stop, who made his way after Marinčin’s shot. With 121 seconds left, the Steelers sealed the result in an empty net on a power play courtesy of Vrána, who was passed by Hrehorčák, who was fouled by Řepík. Repík received a penalty for five minutes and until the end of the game. Battles between Daňa and Chlapík and Kundrátek and Kempný took place on the ice.

Testimonials from coaches

Zdeněk Moták (Třinec): “From our side, the first period was excellent after defending the weakness three on five, we led 2:0. The second third is good, but a little apprehensive. The third period was well played. I have to thank the boys for a fighting, brave performance.’

Pavel Gross (Sparta Prague): “Congratulations to Třinecký for the victory. We saw an interesting match. We didn’t succeed in the first third, that’s where things broke down. In the second we were better and could have added something, but they didn’t and the result is what it is. We’re going on Tuesday.”

Sparta Prague Hockey Team Advances to Semi-finals with 3-0 Win – Recap and Highlights

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com April 3, 2024

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

The hockey players of Sparta Prague entered the semi-finals of the extra league with a home win over the championship Třinec 3:0. In the 25th minute, captain Michal Řepík opened the scoring, at the beginning of the final part, Miroslav Forman secured the lead in a weakened position, and Ondřej Najman sealed the result during a power play into an empty goal.

Goalkeeper Jakub Kovář kept a clean sheet for the first time in this year’s playoffs and the third time this season. The second game of the four-match series is played again at the O2 Arena on Wednesday from 18:00.

Sparta, who eliminated Liberec in the quarter-finals in four games already on March 20, started for the first time in this play-off with center Vladimír Sobotka and also with defender Michal Moravčík, who had been absent since the second match against the White Tigers after he was hit by Oscar Flynn . Třinec ended the series with České Budějovice in seven games only eight days later.

Visiting goalkeeper Mazanec successfully solved the chances of Kousal and Irving in the second minute, and then he also dealt with Lajunen’s finish. Hudáček commissioned the blacksmith for the first time in the fifth minute. From a negative angle, he tried to surprise the Spartan goalkeeper Daňo. In the Steelers’ next opportunity, Cienciala’s pass was missed by Kundrátek at the left post. For Sparta, Forman threatened after Řepík’s pass, but he lacked accuracy and Mazan Kempný threatened before the first break.

At the beginning of the second half, Třinec defended against Polášek’s penalty and right after the power play, Horák did not have time to put the puck in from behind the goal at the left post. At 24:16, Sparta was already celebrating the lead. Repík ended a quick counterattack with an accurate shot from the left circle to the opposite post.

Kundrátek could answer, who ran onto Hrehorčák’s pass, but he didn’t mature with a backhand bluff on Kovář. On the other hand, Mazanec covered David Vitouch’s chance after Horák’s offer. The steel workers resisted even when Dravecký was expelled. Kovář handled Hudáček’s opportunity.

Třinec entered the third period actively, and after a foul by Mikliš, he got a power play, but it didn’t work out for him. Forman skated past the weakened Marinčin and beat Mazanc with a backhand bluff. At the end of the numerical advantage, Kurovský could correct the situation. It didn’t work out even in the 46th minute for Hudáček, who sent the puck at Kováří concrete from behind the goal, but Beaudin deflected it in front of the goal line.

In the 51st minute, he made his way through Vrána’s escape, but he also failed to beat the Spartan goalkeeper with a forehand bluff. On the final power play, Marinčina robbed Najman of the puck and closed the score 98 seconds before the end.

Exciting Semifinal Return: Ángel Zaldívar’s Impact on Atlético San Luis vs. América Game

by Chief editor of world-today-news.com December 10, 2023

written by Chief editor of world-today-news.com

The Semifinal return between Atlético San Luis and América is getting very exciting, because after Potosí dominance in the first half, Ángel Zaldívar, former Chivas player, puts pressure on the Águilas.

The so-called ‘Goal Engineer’ had just come on as a substitute in the second half and one of the first balls he touched was a goal, so América has all the pressure on them, despite their initial advantage of 5 goals.

We recommend: Fixing or soccer champagne? Costa Rica needed 14 goals to go to the W Gold Cup and won 19-0!

Ángel Zaldívar gives life to Atlético San Luis

After 45 minutes of extensive dominance, Gustavo Leal considered that he had to make some changes to his squad, since now it was ‘kill or be killed’, so Ángel Zaldívar came in instead of Leo Bonatini and it worked.

After a series of passes, Atlético San Luis reached deep down the left wing, where they sent a low cross, which seemed to be stopped by the defense, but went through the player’s legs.

Ángel Zaldívar arrived practically alone inside the area and finished, so Luis Malagón, who made at least 3 key saves in the first half, could now do nothing to stop his rivals.

Despite this goal from San Luis, the mission remains complicated, since they need to score 5 more, that is, win by 6 goals difference, to advance to the Final of the Liga MX, since if they tie on the overall score the pass It would be for the Eagles.

We recommend: The Azteca turns his BACK on them! Crazy fans and complain about América for ‘BAD GAME’ against Atlético San Luis

If America makes it to the Final, its rival would be Tigres or Pumas, whoever is the winner of the other Semifinals series.
