Boleslav is ready for the heat. After all, heat belongs to summer, Holoubek said. Field? In three – Sport.cz

A week ago, Boleslav was more dangerous at home. Although Hapoel showed strength with the ball, along with technical quality, it was only poor finishing by the Czech side and several excellent saves from opposition goalkeeper Nivo Eliasi that kept the score tied. “It’s clear that we have a way to go,” said the Czech team’s midfielder Tomáš Ladra.

The match will be affected by the weather, it will be a big hit, it will be hot. When the Central Bohemians trained early on Wednesday afternoon, the thermometer showed thirty-six degrees Celsius. “It’s summer, and high temperatures are part of that. We have no problem with that. The game will be played an hour later, the temperature will drop, there will be some shade. We can handle it, even if this weather is a bit extreme. But we don’t deal with that in our heads. We focus on our game and the opponent,” said Holoubek.

He is also not worried about young players, and he has enough in the team. “After all, they’re always drooling somewhere in swimsuits anyway. They are able to handle it,” the coach told Boleslav. But he clearly pleaded that the players must follow the drinking regime.

“I don’t mind the heat, I like it. It will be the same for both teams, we won’t make excuses for it,” Ladra sidestepped the topic of the weather. He also spoke about the pitch in Loveč. “It’s average, but the same for both ,” said Ladra. “The pitch is in good condition, that’s for three. Nothing is stopping us from playing a good game here,” said Holoubek.

He will be lazy at two or three positions in the lineup. “But I’m not planning a big surprise,” said the strategist Boleslav. After all, between the first game with Beer Ševa and the subsequent league duel with České Budějovice, he made only three changes to the starting lineup.

It can be expected that the main movements such as Ladra, Vasil Kušej, Daniel Mareček or Patrik Vydra will start. “We will select players who are able to start the game, then we can help ourselves with five substitutes,” said Holoubek.

Thursday’s match kicks off at 19.00, and will be broadcast live by O2 TV Sport. The winner of the match will face the Hungarian Pakistan in the final preliminary round for promotion to the Conference League.

Boleslav faces a big test, at the same time the path to the basic group of the third European championship is not inevitable. However, Holoubka’s team must show a focused performance and prove themselves by shooting. Much like Sunday against Budějovice, with whom she conceded four goals.
