Like the Euro. It’s raining in Hamburg, Pilsen trained next to the main stadium – Sport.cz

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

The West Bohemians have played solidly in the European League group stage, in the middle (after 4 games) they have 6 points on their account. It is expected that the playoffs will also concern the teams with 9 points. “Dynamo are last on the table, but they had tough opponents. However, he is an opponent where three points can be scored against him. In the next three games against Manchester United, Anderlecht and Bilbao, it will be difficult,” said Šulc.

“We still have four games to go. Theoretically, if I have to evaluate our chances of promotion as a percentage, the game with Dynamo is a game on which we have to focus a lot. However, hares are counted only after the chase, so far we are only in a good starting position for the finish,” said coach Miroslav Koubek.

The day before the match, his team had some inconvenience, due to the waterlogged turf at the Volparkstadion, they finished pre-match training on the sideline. “It’s not a big problem. It’s more about the fact that we were looking forward to training in a beautiful stadium. Nothing can be done,” said captain Lukáš Kalvach.

This situation is not unique in Hamburg. The condition of the turf at the Volparstadion was not very good already in the Euros, the teams were training mostly at their centers the day before the games in Hamburg.

It is surprising that Dynamo, who have temporary asylum in Hamburg as a result of the war in Ukraine, are without a point so far. He didn’t even score a goal. So is Pilsen the favourite? “According to the points obtained, it might seem that way, but we will certainly not underestimate anything. Dynamo is a European brand. He has a team full of smart, fast, dynamic players. Produces fast, intense football. I see a fifty-fifty chance,” said Koubek.

The Victorians are used to playing on the European stage in front of packed stadiums, but the 55,000-capacity Volparkstadion will be as quiet as a church. Around five thousand spectators are expected… “The atmosphere will not be extra, the match will be special in this respect. In Frankfurt, it was completely different,” said Kalvach.

Almost two years in Europe without a loss. Plzeň is not going to collapse as a result of the defeat – Sport.cz

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

It was the first day of November 2022 when Pilsen lost 2-4 at home to Barcelona and finished the Champions League group stage without a single point. Since then, however, he has been playing on the international stage. They did not lose in 90 minutes, in the last season of the Conference League, they were eliminated in the quarter-finals against Fiorentina in extra time.

Koubek himself drew attention to this statistic. Why? To put the 0:0 tie with Ludogorek in more positive dimensions.

“Death is not always a tragedy. Every non-loss is a strong result for the Czech team. We don’t fall apart. Yes, we might have calculated that this match would be the easiest in the top tier of the Europa League, so we would like to have three points. It would be lovely. It may be a loss, but the performance was not bad at all,” said the experienced coach.

The players find it very similar. Captain Kalvach continued that there were plenty of opportunities or clues in the game. But the ball could not be pushed into the net. Of course, he also understands that the connected result is very worthy of the penalty caught by Martin Jedlička.

“Maybe we’re not more relaxed, playing around with the situation even more,” Kalvach points out. The chances of Daniel Vašulín, who hit the post from an angle in the second half, are very difficult.

“At first I was looking at Cadu to put it against his leg, but the defender caught it. So I gave myself the ball. I saw a spot on the front post and unfortunately I hit it,” the lanky striker describes. In general, he believes that Pilsen does not have a bit of luck or a better choice of location.

Koubek also admitted to a little cramp at the end. “It’s always around and around. One last pass, just put it through. The accuracy of the final solution was not required. We can’t get into full protection with our spikes. Pavel Šulc or Prince Adu are trying, but the technical performance is not perfect. We need more shooting. We have been lacking accuracy lately. On the other hand, we scored three goals last week in Frankfurt,” said Koubek.

The chance to break it will be on Sunday at home against Pardubice.

“The games are coming fast. It is definitely important for us to win the duel before the international break. So that we can rejuvenate and have peace of mind for work,” explained Kalvach. “We have to win, the train is not going through,” Vašulín shouts.

Pilsen – Ludogorets 0:0. Jedličk’s point, Viktorie’s goalkeeper caught the penalty

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

After five matches they kept a clean sheet, at the same time they are already waiting for a win in four matches. In the 2nd round of the main phase of the European League, Viktoria Plzeň drew 0:0 with Bulgarian Ludogorets Razgrad. Martin Jedlička’s contribution was key. The home goalkeeper caught a penalty at the end of the second half and significantly contributed to the second point in the table. After a period of waiting for a chance as a substitute, he became the hero of the evening.

The tactically led match in the packed Doosan arena was stirred by the situation from the end of the second half. Hungarian referee Tamás Bognár went to examine Václav Jemelka’s hand in the goal after a warning from VAR. The replays clearly showed that the Pilsen stopper went lightly against the ball with his hand and the verdict was clear – a penalty.

Pilsen goalkeeper Martin Jedlička shone in his excellent discipline. Jakub Piotrowski was aiming for his left hand on the ground, the goalkeeper read the shooter correctly and calmly caught the ball. The key intervention of the evening!

Jedlička recalled the moments from the spring, when in Pilsen he eliminated penalties during a successful shootout in the rematch of the round of 16 of the Conference League against the Swiss Servette. At that time, he fired only one shot out of four attempts behind his back and became the main architect of the historic progress.

In the current season, he had to wait before returning to the Pilsen goal. He struggled for a long time from illness, then the excellent catcher Marián Tvrdonň was given priority. Jedlička only got a chance in the half-time substitution at Slavia, where, on the other hand, the match did not suit Tvrdoň at all and he conceded three goals. On Thursday night, he caught his third straight complete game, his first shutout.

Pilsen significantly helped to the point, although the home team was optically better, but against the Bulgarian champion, they struggled going forward. In the first half, Adu’s only chance got the audience out of their seats, and the offense got more moving only after Jedliček’s caught penalty.

The closest to the goal was Daniel Vašulín, whose good finish ended up on the post. Pilsen pressed in the end, but did not get the ball into the net. A point in the table on the European stage is not bad, but Viktoria has already been waiting for a win for four matches. He has another chance on Sunday after lunch against Pardubice.

Coach Koubek prepared two interesting moves for Razgrad together with his colleagues. They sent Erik Jirka to the right side from the first minute, but he did not make much of an impact in the less usual position. Jiří Panoš operated alongside Pavel Šulec. The 16-year-old talent went to the base in a sharp game for the Pilsen A team only for the second time and showed above-standard things on the set.

In Košice against Kryvbas, where Plzeň was playing in the 3rd qualifying preliminary round, he stunned with a wonderful goal with his refined left foot. He also did well in front of a packed Doosan Arena against the Bulgarian champions. He only played the first half, but at a very solid level.

He operated in an offensive position alongside Pavel Šulec, together they complemented the center forward Prince Adu. Watching the technical skills of a young lad from the stands is a football delight. In the first half, Panoš handed out three cribs to much older and more experienced opponents, the spectators in the stands applauded in appreciation. He is confident about his age and is not afraid of difficult solutions, he has solidly mixed up his opponents several times.

The coaches showed courage that they believe in the youngster. Most of the dangerous actions that Viktoria came up with went through him in the first act. Nevertheless, he was the one who stayed in the dressing room during the break. Due to a health problem, Panoš received an unpleasant blow to the calf at the end of the half.

Pilsen kept a clean sheet after a five-match wait, after a 3:3 draw in Frankfurt added another point to the table of the main phase of the Europa League. Considering the other opponents (PAOK Thessaloniki, Real Sociedad, Dynamo Kyiv, Anderlecht Brussels, Bilbao), the remaining two, which the team left on the field, can be significantly different in the final total.

A week after a 3:3 draw with Pilsen, Frankfurt won 3:1 in Istanbul over Besiktas, Eintracht will also challenge Slavia. Fenerbahce Istanbul, another opponent of the Vrsovic team, drew 1:1 at Twente Enschede. Pilsen’s rival Manchester United did not maintain a two-goal lead and played 3:3 in Porto. He scored the equalizing goal in the set time in a weakened position.

The 22-year-old Hložek made his mark for Hoffenheim in Sunday’s Bundesliga duel with Bremen for the first time since arriving from the championship side Leverkusen in August. Compared to the match against Werder, in which his team did not keep a 3-0 lead and lost 3-4 in a long slump, his goals led to the triumph.

Against Dynamo in the 22nd minute, he took advantage of Gendrey’s pass with a ground shot from the penalty area. After an hour of the game, the Spartans protege increased the score after meeting Kramaric and firing just wide of the post from outside the penalty area. Hložek last scored two goals in one competitive match last December against Molde, also in the Europa League.

From the 56th minute, Pavel Kadeřábek also started for the German team. Another Czech, David Jurásek, appeared at least on the bench for the first time since he broke his hand in training in July. Hoffenheim got four points from the opening two games, the Ukrainian team has not one.

Kuchta played 60 minutes for Midtjylland. The Danish team beat Maccabi thanks to Franculin, Chilufya added the insurance in the end. Midtjylland has already scored four points.

Anderlecht also keeps a 100% record in total with their first win over Ferencváros (also 2:1). In San Sebastian, they were losing from the eighth minute after a Marino strike, but in the first half, the Belgian team turned the score around when Vázquez and Leoni made their mark. The Spanish team has only one point.

Malmö, who fell short of Sparta Prague in the final preliminary round of the Champions League, won in Baku over Karabakh thanks to two goals from Botheim. The reigning Swedish league champions cheered themselves up after their opening home loss to Rangers. At the end of January in Eden, Slavia will be the last opponent in the league phase of the competition. The team from Azerbaijan is without a point.

PAOK fell to FCSB Champions League qualifier rivals Sparta after a Birligey strike in a long first-half set-up. The guests kept their lead, even though they played without the suspended captain Olaru from the 56th minute. The Romanian team is 100 percent, PAOK lost for the second time.

Bilbao won against Alkmaar only between the 72nd and 85th minute. The difference was scored by Iňaki Williams after an assist from Nic’s younger brother. The Spanish team has four points.

Frankfurt decided on three points at Besiktas already in the first half, when they scored twice. Home team Immobile could have corrected the unfavorable situation in the opening act, but did not convert the penalty.

In the duel with Twente, Fenerbahce secured a point in the 71st minute with an equalizing goal by Tadič. Coach Mourinho’s men scored the fourth point, the Dutch team tied for the second time.

Everything was going great for Manchester in Porto, with Rashford and Höjlund taking the lead after 20 minutes.

In addition, Fernandes weakened the guests in the 81st minute, the Portuguese captain of United also saw a red card in Sunday’s league match with Tottenham. The “Red Devils” still equalized in the set-up thanks to substitute Maguire. Even so, they did not win the fourth competitive match in a row and drew for the second time in the Europa League.

RFS Riga unexpectedly drew 2:2 at home with Galatasaray and has the first bodi. The Czech defender Petr Mareš spent the entire match among the substitutes of the Latvian team.
