The coach of the Slavic football players Jindřich Trpišovský appreciated the high victory 4: 1 in the opening round of the European Conference League against Linz all the more because he lacked a number of players and that he had to improvise a lot when composing the team.
Slavia already had a number of absences before the match, and Ondřej Lingr and Ivan Schranz were eliminated just before the match.
“We couldn’t count on 12 shortlists. This morning we lost two players who were supposed to play. What had arms, legs and lungs had to go to the match,” the strategist of the red and white team shrugged.
Trpišovský revealed that his team is struggling with a virus that jumps from one to another. “We lose players. I think it was visible on some at the end of the match. So that’s why I appreciate it all the more because it’s three goals that we scored four goals,” the coach praised.
According to coach Slavia, it was very good on the offensive on the part of his team, on the other hand, changes in the line-up affected the organization of the game. “The center of the field was completely new,” Trpišovský pointed out.
“When you lose players on the day of the match, it’s always annoying. So I’m glad we did it that way. The individual performances of some players today were above standard,” the coach praised.
He very unexpectedly put debutant Adam Pudil into the basic line-up, who was replaced after the half by his twin Miloš. “I would like to thank the people who brought them to Slavia. The club has great potential in them. We have been watching them since the summer, we have taken them into training from time to time. Even though they will only be 17 in April, they have great potential for our football.” Trpišovský prophesied.
The young people were vacated by the unexpected absence of Ivan Schranz from this afternoon, and Lukáš Masopust would not have survived the whole match. “We wanted to keep the typology of the wings, we wanted to have dynamic players there,” explained the head of the Slavic bench.
While Adam Pudil played the first half, his brother Milos played 37 minutes after the change of sides. “We wanted to prepare a quiz in half, if you find out that we exchanged them. At half-time, we thought a bit that we would leave them the same jersey and save one substitution. Maybe no one would notice,” Trpišovský joked.
“At the end of the half, Adam could see that running was a difficult match for him. He put everything into it. The brother then went so that he would not be sorry. They both did great for their age,” the coach continued in approval. “Adam was at the first goal, Miloš returned to the defensive several times in the second half. He showed a good read of the game,” he added.
All four Slavia goals were scored by African players, two of whom were Yira Sor. “It’s always easier for a player who has already been engaged in the Czech Republic than his direct incorporation. It’s important that they understand the principles of the team, the game, the cabin. The guys who are here longer help us. We knew, for example, that Yira admires Peter Olayinka. It’s even faster, “Trpišovský rubbed his hands.
He does not think that it is decided before retaliation in Austria. “LASK is much stronger at home, even though it plays in St. Pölten. It’s a lot of uncomfortable matches due to standard situations, long cars. That and the staff shortages keep us in the lurch. “which might suit us,” said coach Slavia.
