After goals from Adam Karabec and Daniel Fila, the Czechs earned a two-goal victory in Belgium. The coach Jan Suchopárek and the players themselves assessed this result very well, but warned against over-optimism. “We should put it out of our minds,” striker Václav Sejk urged at the pre-match press conference.
The young Belgians may have lost at home, but they have a successful record away from home. They won four of their five away games in the qualifying group, losing only in Spain.
“We hope we can beat Spain and beat Belgium at home too. We showed that we can play with them,” hopes captain Lvíčat.
The Czech youngsters are doing great in their home Malšovická Arena in Hradec Králové. Against Belgium, they will defend a 100 percent record, as they have celebrated victory in every game so far.
The overall balance of the game will also play a role in choosing Suchopárek’s coach. The 21-year-old Czech has played against Belgium eight times so far and has won five of them. The Belgians celebrated only twice.
The best captain of the Czech national team is captain Sejk, who scored four times in the current qualification cycle. On the other hand, Kazeem Olaigbe recorded the same number in the statistics.
