Slavia football coach Jindřich Trpišovský commented for the first time on the disgusting finish of Thursday’s retaliatory match of the eighth finals of the European League in Glasgow against the Rangers.
During the match, exacerbated by the intervention and behavior of the players of the Scottish club, Rangers midfielder Glen Kamara accused tracker Ondřej Kúdel of racism. After the match, he physically attacked him inside the stadium.
“It is incomprehensible to me what happened there. About 50 minutes after the match we were asked by a Rangers coach. (Steven Gerrard) for a meeting stating that they want to resolve the situation with the participation of UEFA, “Trpišovský said after yesterday’s league match with Opava.
“When we came to the tunnel for a meeting, not a word was said, Kamara threw his fists on the Tow and then ran away. I was two meters away,” the Prague coach described.
“I thought that something would happen at the meeting about Ondra Kolář’s injury or about the unsportsmanlike intervention on Honza Kuchta. What I saw there was the worst experience for me in football,” added Trpišovský.
“To attack the player with his fists 50 minutes after the match… And especially the intervention on Ondra Kolář. Such an intervention is only in combat sports and there the players are still ready for it, they don’t have a football boot,” Slavie.
“A better team advanced in terms of sports. There is a huge difference when we compare how they took the elimination in Leicester and here. We won 2-0 in Leicester, the implementation team shook hands with us. It was clear that they can lose,” Trpišovský compared.
“Here it was the exact opposite. These things, the attacks on Koli, Kuchtič and Kúdy, are hardened in retrospect,” Trpišovský added. Slavists already filed a criminal complaint in Kamara on Friday for the attack.
Despite being exposed to a lot of pressure, Kúdeel started Sunday’s duel with Opava (4: 0).
“We immediately said that it would be best for him to be right back on the field,” Trpišovský explained. “It was just waiting for his health, after the attack he was quite shaken on the first day. On Friday afternoon he said he would like to play when his health allows it. So we were decided right away. I’m glad he was able to all those things that happened, concentrate on the match and play it, “praised the red-and-white strategist.
His team also praised the tow for managing the encounter with Opava. He clearly stands behind his stopper and does not doubt that he did not commit any racist insults.
“The cabin holds together. Of course we trust Kúdy, we hold it together. You can see what a pro he is, because he managed it in peace today, even though there was a rumble around him,” said forward Jan Kucta.
“He is an experienced boy, I really like him. I don’t wish him anything bad. He managed it, which shows what a player he is. We are glad to have him,” added the team shooter.
The people of Prague tried not to think too much about the match with the Rangers. “I really like the cabin and the people who are here. Of course it’s not easy, those three days were very hectic. We try to talk about it as little as possible and not really notice the things that are happening outside,” Trpišovský said.
“I’m really happy with how the team works. Despite all the events that happened, you could see how focused he was,” the coach Slavia concluded.
