The atmosphere at Teplice Stínadly | Video: Diary/František Bílek
First of all, let’s recall the fateful duel that was played in Prague on August 18, 2013. Teplice humiliated Slavia in an unprecedented way, they had never suffered such a defeat on their field until then. “It’s a huge shame, horror, horror. I can’t explain why this happened. We have to say it to ourselves, it’s not normal to score seven goals,” lamented the coach of Slavists Michal Petrouš at the time.
At halftime, the home team was losing 0:2, Táborský and Jablonský scored. Less than twenty minutes after the reversal, Mahmutović scored the third goal, after which Kisel saw a red card. Coach Zdeňko Ščásny’s team was at the end and weak Slavia poured in four more goals (Matula, Mahmutović 2 and Ljevaković). “It was cruel for Slavia. The second half was under our direction, everything fell to us,” he assessed the match, which went down in the history of both clubs.
The management of Slavia Prague then fined the footballers of the A-team and the implementation team, including the sports management, one million crowns, and threatened further fines.
A worse tipster than a penalty taker
In the end, in the 2013/2014 season, Prague finished in fourteenth place, Teplice was fifth. They have never won since August 2013, a dream for them in Eden, and even lost the last six duels with a shameful score of 2:26.
When Antonín Panenka, who was made famous by the famous Vršovice dloubák, had to guess how the match between Slavia and Teplice on Saturday would end, he thought for a long time in the Tika Tak show. “Slavia is in a good mood. He scores goals, plays good football,” said the 75-year-old Panenka today. Moderator Petr Svěcený joined him. “I remember 0:7,” he declared. “So to even it out, I’ll give it 7:0,” the former player of Prague Bohemians promptly fired.
But with his prediction, he pissed off more than one Teplice fan who watched the Tika Taka show. “I won’t forgive Tondo. I hope that he is a worse tipster than he was a penalty taker,” said Jan Hečko, a longtime supporter of the glassmakers.
