“I am hugely disappointed,” Stanislav Purkart, the coach of FK Robstav, had a hard time finding words for the defeat.
“We play good football for the spectators, but we don’t score points. I lack more self-sacrifice, more responsibility in the game,” added the 54-year-old coach.
At the same time, his wards got off to an excellent start, already in the eighth minute the Štursa captain splashed the visiting defense and sent Robstav into the lead. In another of the breaks, however, he kicked the ball too far forward, even Řezáč could not finish accurately and before that he headed in a clear opportunity next to Heger.

“These are the situations that bring us down. From a similar situation, the opponent made it 2:1 in the second half,” the coach reminded Robstav of the header of his team’s stopper.
Even so, his team went into the cabins with a tight lead. “We didn’t let the opponents into anything,” described Purkart, but in the second half his team completely lost their role and Povltava FA turned the score around within eight minutes.
“At halftime, I warned the players to be careful about breaks and set pieces. And what doesn’t happen… Three of our players go for the ball, they don’t have it and the opponent equalizes on the break. Then we won’t look after the standard again,” Purkart didn’t understand. Then Robstav, trying to quickly equalize, opened the game and conceded two more goals.
In the 78th minute, substitute Popovič reduced the score to 2:4, the home team Robstav still had more chances, but could not make the match more dramatic. “We can’t play such wild matches. When I see the other opponents, they will make it 1-0 and us? Our own mistakes bring us down,” Purkart added, adding that he saw another significant difference in the game of both teams in the second half.
“Povltavská wanted, she wanted, and we just went to participate,” Purkart didn’t understand. The situation of his team is already becoming critical, the lead over the penultimate Slavia Karlovy Vary has shrunk to just two points. In addition, Robstav now has two matches on the reserve fields of the first league teams in České Budějovice and Pilsen.
