FK Mladá Boleslav – SK Sigma Olomouc 1:1 (1:1)

13. 12. 2007 Redakce

Three defensive players were absent from the Boleslav squad for the last match of 2007. Voříšek, Hrdlička a Rajnoch were booked for the fourth time in the preliminary round so they were suspended for the match against Olomouc. The Olomouc team missed marksman Hartig due to long-term injury, which was also one of the reasons they have not scored on away pitches for seven weeks already. But they ended this unlucky sequence after less than a quarter of an hour on the Boleslav pitch. The Boleslav players only equalized after tireless efforts. They missed not only shooting good luck but also more coolness and stress in terminating their attacks to score a winning goal.

Kaščák started Kazár, who terminated his solo against Pižanowski with the leading goal for Olomouc in the 14th minute – 0:1.
The impatient Boleslav audience could enjoy the equalizer in the 40th minute. Mendy headed the ball to Holub in a scrummage of defending opponent players after a centre pass from the right-hand line, and Holub cold-bloodedly shot the ball into the Olomouc net along the left foot of Drobisz, at last – 1:1.

The second half started similarly as the first one ended. That is, with pressure on the Boleslav team. Unfortunately, without a crowning goal even if there were plenty of scoring chances.
The Olomouc players tested the Boleslav defence with break attacks. Rolko stopped Onofrej in the 48th minute. Hubník tried to hit the more distant corner of the goal of Pižanovski by shooting around the defending Rolko, but his shot missed. In the 76th minute, Hubník again tried to pass the ball to Onofrej in the goal area, but Kalina managed to divert it for a corner kick.

The Boleslav team took six corner kicks in the opening quarter of the second half and another five during the next half an hour. They did not manage to score a goal after any of them and none of the players was able to score from play. Mendy did not manage to terminate an attack in the penalty area after cooperation with Kalina and Procházka in the 63rd minute. Neither Kopic with his head nor Procházka with his foot scored after a free kick taken by Holub in the 73rd minute. Mašek did not score with his head after Mendy’s centre pass in the 80th minute and a smashing shot by Procházka just cleared the left-hand post immediately after that. Kopic headed the ball in vain in the 82nd minute and a shot by Vaněček was also unsuccessful. Holub missed the goal with his right foot in the 85th minute. Many other attacks by the Boleslav team suffered from unsettledness and rashness of the players, who did not lack effort, but their pursuance was ineffective. It was of no use that they pressed against the Olomouc goal till the last moment. The three minutes of extra time did not bring the desired winning goal, either.
