From Dukla with no goals, yet a point. Staněk rules


Slavia entered the 27th round with a lineup heavily affected by injuries. Captain Jan Boril returned to the defense, joined at center-back by David Zima. Tomas Chory led the attack, supported from midfield by, among others, David Moses.
Right in the 1st minute, the opponent threatened from a corner kick, but a powerful header was safely handled by the alert Jindrich Stanek. A dangerous situation was later cleared by Jan Boril, who tracked back excellently to recover the ball behind the defense.
Sesivani made their presence known in the 12th minute, when Ondrej Zmrzly's run ended with a save by the home goalkeeper. Shortly after, Lukas Provod broke into the box, but the referee did not consider the challenge on him to be a penalty.
In the 24th minute, Ivan Schranz delivered a beautiful cross to Ondrej Zmrzly, but he missed the ball in a clear scoring position. Just before the half-hour mark, Christos Zafeiris fired from outside the box, but his bouncing shot went over the goal.
In the 37th minute, Jindrich Stanek shone again, saving a dangerous strike from Spatenka. He was excellent in stoppage time too, leaping to stop a shot from Milla. Moments later, Slavia were saved by the post.
The first half offered no more than that?aside from a brilliant display by Tribuna Sever, which you can check out on our social media.
In the second half, a sold-out Juliska welcomed David Moses, whose curling shot from outside the area missed just wide. In the 52nd minute, Lukas Provod found Tomas Chory in the box, but his attempt also went narrowly wide. Cermak had a similar effort on the other end.
After an hour of play, Dukla had two golden chances. The first was denied by a superb rush from Jindrich Stanek, and the follow-up shot flew over the bar. To try and break the deadlock, substitutes Vasil Kusej and Dominik Pech were brought on.
Despite a lot of attacking effort, the final product was missing. Fifteen minutes from time, Ivan Schranz was replaced by Divine Teah, who almost scored right away but hit the post with his header. David Doudera followed suit, sending the ball into the side netting.
In the 90th minute, Dominik Pech had the winning goal at his feet, but from close range he fired over the bar.
Nothing else happened at Juliska, and Slaviste leave with a point from a 0?0 draw. Their next match is scheduled for Saturday, April 5, when Sesivani host Hradec Kralove.
