In the national team after an excellent week with Sparta
No wonder David Hancko he came to the national team with a smile on his face: “It was such a week of crisis, during which it was to be shown whether we have it or not. That’s why I’m happy that it worked out for us like this. It probably couldn’t have turned out better. ”
Just 23 minutes into the match, Prievidze came through the middle and almost added to his team’s lead, but the shot went wide. The goal of the Slovak defender finally decided the whole fate of the European League match.
“It’s true that we’re rehearsing it, but I’ve managed to score more goals like that,” Hancko described the goal moment, “By being close to the goal, I was convinced that the ball was the whole volume at the bottom. I looked at the referee and he showed that it was a goal. We gained three important points in the A-group, which helped us a lot after the draw in Copenhagen. ”

Lukáš Haraslín: Goal for son and grandfather, everything turned around
A few days later, another Slovak in a Sparta jersey was looking forward to it. Lukáš Haraslín decided the jubilee sad derby against Slavia with a goal from the standard shortly before the end of the first half. Hancko is happy that his national teammate has a really successful entry into the new environment.
“It’s great that he managed to decide the derby like this shortly after coming to the club. He immediately joined the basic eleven, which is not easy at all. I’m very happy about that. And whoever scores the goal, it basically doesn’t matter. Of course, when he is Slovak, I am very happy, but three points are much more important, “he states.

Hanck’s game settings are great news for Tarkovič
For the national helmsman Štefan Tarkovič, the positive is not only the good setting of Dávid Hanck, with whom he came to a meeting, but also the fact that in Sparta Prague he started to play on the left edge of defense – a post that is problematic in our national selection.
“In Sparta, both left defenders were injured and there was basically no other option, so the coaches moved me there. Now I have the last three matches played in this position and thanks to that I can be better prepared for the national team, “ thinks the former player of MŠK Žilina and the Italian Fiorentina, who in Sparta gets used to playing the position of middle stopper, but the shift to the left does not seem to hurt him at all. On the contrary.

“I think it follows from the good setup of the whole team. When we are doing well and playing well, the willingness to push forward is even greater. It also helps me to play 90 minutes in every match, so that’s why I feel good. Then you can afford more in a match, “says Hancko.
Before the qualifying matches against Russia (October 8) and Croatia (October 11), after which it will probably be clear whether we are still in the game for promotion to the World Cup 2022 in Qatar or not, Hancko believes that he can follow up on a successful November association term.
“It’s always about the results and there could have been more points. Now it will be important to gain points against the two biggest competitors for promotion. We cannot focus on the result, but rather on our game. I believe that our performances will be the same as in the previous event, but at the same time I believe that it will also bring us the necessary points, “ he wished.

UEFA began investigating the roar in Kamara during Sparta’s match against the Rangers
Possible racism? Unnecessarily inflated
The Scottish Glasgow Rangers left again after a duel with the Prague team with a long nose, but just like after last year’s eighth finals of the European League with Slavia, there was no silence after the match with Sparta.
In this case, too, the “riders” complained of racism from Sparta fans. This was despite the fact that there were about 10,000 children sitting in the viewpoint at Letná, as Sparta was serving its sentence after a match with the French AS Monaco.
Finnish midfielder Rangers Glen Kamara he faced the reluctance of the stands during the match and even earned a roar after being eliminated from the 74th minute. The Scots saw it as a manifestation of racism. Although the European Football Union was initially silent, it subsequently launched an investigation into Sparta on Tuesday.

Sparta Prague’s match with Rangers FC has a diplomatic finish: no one will compare …
The whole matter even reached the diplomatic level when the Czech Minister of Foreign Affairs Jakub Kulhánek asked the British for an apology for the inappropriate attacks on Czech children allegedly perpetrated by a member of the Scottish Football Association.
David Hancko, who decided the meeting against the Rangers, did not notice any manifestations of racism in the match. It all comes to him more like an inflated bubble and uselessness. “I did not perceive at all that there should be any racist undertone. We were also told in the club that the delegate did not write anything in the minutes of the meeting immediately after the match, “ he spoke in response to a question ŠPORT.sk.
“It simply came to our notice then. Kamara was whistled after the red card, which would have been another player who would have been disqualified. I don’t want to comment on it, but I think it’s a bit …, “ you sighed “I am supremely against racism! I think it’s unnecessarily bloated on their part. Many people who have written about it in England and Britain, in my opinion, have not even seen the match. I personally didn’t notice anything during the meeting. “

So Sparta is going through something similar to Slavia a year ago. Even then, the focus was on Glen Kamara, who was to face racism from the defender of the “stitched” Ondřej Kúdel. The recent Glasgow Rangers duel for a short time, paradoxically, brought together fans of both camps.
“It brought them together on Thursday, but it split again on Sunday, so it’s where it was before,” David Hancko laughed.
