“But she’s still not a utopia,” says Karviná coach Bohumil Páník, although his team is worse off after two more matches than when the spring began. nine-point shortage and in Jablonec and Teplice even eleven-point, while Pardubice has two matches and Jablonec one, albeit with Sparta.

“We scored four points in the spring, but we are really worse off because Teplice and Pardubice score. But even four points count, “the Lord reassured his charges even after they came out empty in the rescue fight in Teplice.

“We were punished for passivity in the first half. For the frightened performance of some players who did not deliver the performance we expected from them. And also for the typological composition of our staff. We have taller and heavier players who moved worse than the home team on challenging terrain, “coach Karviné calculated the reasons why his team at Stínadly failed after the victory over Slavia and a draw with Jablonec, and the loss to the rungs, at least in the playoffs, increased.

“At the same time, we thought that winning the Slavia would kick us. But then we lost a well-played match with Jablonec and only took a draw, now we have lost in Teplice. We only have four points out of four matches and the loss to the places meaning participation in the playoffs is great, “said Radek Látal, who came from Olomouc to Karviná to host the league in the winter to help save the league.

“We lose nine points on the draw, which is three victories. Now that Teplice has managed to win three times in a row in the spring, why shouldn’t we succeed? “
–
“We have to score and push the opponent in front of us. Pull down the deficit so that they are also under pressure. Then it will be a much more difficult situation for them than now, when the points lead gives them peace of mind and they play, of course, much better, “coach Karviná assures that he will fight for league survival as long as there is at least theoretical hope to avoid a direct descent.
–
“Our situation is critical but not hopeless. There is still a spark of hope. But we have to collect as many points in the remaining eight rounds as to get to the playoff superstructure and have at least some hope. In it, endangered teams play together and anything can happen, “Látal also clings to the playoffs as a salvation that gives Karviná a chance to survive in the league.
