Losing the biggest star for the cup finals would be a big blow for Sparta. Adam Hložek had a jersey in his cabin with his twenties, but he resigned from the warm-up and the implementation team is alert.
–
“Adam felt a problem warming up. We didn’t want to risk his condition getting worse. We will do everything to heal him, it is crucial for our offensive, “says coach Pavel Vrba.

At the same time, in both mutual matches with Hradec Králové in the basic part, Hložek was the central figure. With a home win of 4: 0, he scored a goal and assistance, and retaliation on the opponent’s ground, just before the end after the individual action, decided with a single match.

“In both cases, he actually defeated us himself,” points out Stanislav Hejkal, an assistant to the Votrokes, who also worked at Letná.
–
“No one knows how Adam would play the match. From the point of view of statistics, it was a clear weakening of the opponent and for us a loss of one of Sparta’s most dangerous players. So the advantage for us is, “agrees head coach Miroslav Koubek.

Slovácko tuned in to the cup final with a 3: 1 win over Baník, while Sparta showed its worst spring performance on the home field.
–
“I am sad and disappointed, the match did not work out for us. He didn’t show anything at all before the cup final, he rather confused our heads, “laments Vrba.
–
His team loses five points in the league to the leader Pilsen and three to the second Slavia, which hosts Victoria on Sunday. “We believed that we would win over Hradec and reach the top again, because Slavia and Plzeň are waiting for a match. We were unable to withdraw the top even more than we would have imagined before the last matches, “regrets Vrba.

Sparta officially said goodbye to Costa Nhamoines before the match. The Zimbabwean defender symbolically concludes his career as a player registered in Sparta, where he starts working as a scout.

The people of Letná also used a commemorative video to honor the memory of their former captain Josef Šural, who tragically died three years ago in a car accident in Turkey. The fans then applauded him for the entire 23rd minute, which was the jersey number of the Czech national team.
