Ivan Pecha, coach of Újezd: “We certainly did not go into the next derby as favorites after the previous two performances. We counted the absences again, for various reasons Belžík, Hrnčiřík, Maňas, Karlík and our captain, scorer and forward Tomáš Bělaška were absent due to a red card. Players who have not played regularly since the beginning have entered the starting line-up. After several years, almost fifty-year-old Pepa Šándor also jumped into the post of defensive midfielder. Even though he told me that he could only play half time for work reasons, he ended up playing, and very well, until the 65th minute, when he was replaced by our only substitute, the young David Máčalík. From this time on, we had no one to replace. The match itself had the same scenario. The home team tried to get to our goal mainly with long kicks and crosses, which we sometimes managed to solve even with luck. We, on the other hand, played for simple breaks and it must be said that thanks to this we created more opportunities than the home team. Both of our forwards handled it excellently and complemented each other perfectly. Already at the beginning of the match, Petr Šustek scored the first goal, who once played for Slopná and had an increased motivation to show off, which he showed brilliantly. He had another chance until the 20th minute, the first was eliminated by the goalkeeper and the second narrowly missed the goal. In addition, he was given a yellow card. Both sides had some chances before half time, set pieces, corners and long drives. But none of that resulted in a goal. The second half had practically the same scenario as the first. We managed to bounce back again with Petr Šustek to a difference of two goals, when Štěpán Kovář sent his attack partner Petr into the break with his head, which increased the score to 2:0. The home team increased the pressure even more, and when they also scored a contact goal from a long drive, things did not look rosy for us. Especially when we no longer had anyone to revive the game and send fresh forces into the game. But this time the boys played responsibly and compared to other matches, they didn’t even make stupid and childish mistakes. And when Adam Dobiáš added the third goal after one of our standard situations, we began to believe in a full point gain from the hot ground. That finally happened. Given the chances and, above all, responsible play, we took care of the three points and deserved them. And thus they corrected at least partially the grossly unsuccessful match from last week.”
JAROSLAVICE – SK ZLÍN 1931 1:5 (0:1)
Miroslav Březina, coach of Jaroslavice: “The result does not correspond to the course of the game, it was not a clear match. In the first half, the visitors had more of the game, towards the end of the half we did not see their standard situation. We had a disastrous start to the second half, scoring three goals in ten minutes – the first from a penalty kick, which in my opinion should not have been whistled, but the referee had a different opinion. We immediately made two big mistakes, the goalkeeper, among other things, did not agree with the defense. We had chances in the second half, but maybe it was because the opponent was complacent. In good weather, there was a nice visit, mainly people from Pasek. They created a great fan base for them.”
Jaroslav Novotný, Pasek coach: “The home team defended well, we couldn’t get chances for a long time. Then we had some, for a change we didn’t change them. Five minutes before the end of the half, we took the lead after a goal from a corner. In the second half, we wanted to fly in at Jaroslavica, after ten minutes they played with a handball, we made it 2:0 from the penalty. Then their goalkeeper scored our player and we were leading 3:0, thus we decided the game for good. We took turns, he was more or less a friend. The home team fought, they tried, but we deservedly won. Many people came to the match, even from Pasek. Method? We don’t want to talk about it, but you can tell a little bit about the boys that they probably have it in their heads. They’re a little more nervous during matches.”

LUHAČOVICE B – NÁVÓNÁ 1:2 (1:1)
Zdeněk Červenka, acting chairman of Luhačovice: “We lost the game ourselves. We outplayed the opponent almost the whole time, they had the ball on their feet. The first goal was scored by the guests in the 5th minute from a penalty after a careless intervention by our defender. In the 10th minute, after a kick into the area and a subsequent pass by Martin Šidlík, we responded with a goal by Jáchym Gregor. It was tied at 1:1. That’s how the first half ended. In the 51st minute, we failed to pass and the visitors were lucky to score a second time. Towards the end of the match, we reduced the game to three defenders, tried to equalise, there were chances, but we could not convert them. This loss will freeze, but that’s football!’
Ondřej Macháč, head of Návojné: “The very first action of the home team meant a huge chance, but they overshot the goal. We were very lucky. In the fifth minute, after a foul on our midfielder, we converted a penalty, our captain Martin Ptáček took care of it. The same player made a kick in defense a moment later, it was tied 1:1. The home team held the ball more often, but could not get more chances, shots. We defended very well. In the second half we wanted to follow up on the first half, Ondra Šebák sent us into the lead again after an excellent pass by Martin Šánek, again the best player on the field. We defended the rest of the match. The win is valuable for us.”
NEDAS’S LHOTA – SCHIPTA 0:2 (0:2)
Petr Pacík, coach of Nedašová Lhota: “We knew that it would not be an easy game against Štípa. She got through twice before the fifteenth minute, she was really good. We kept pace with her, unfortunately we didn’t score a contact goal, which I regret. Even after half-time, we still believed that we would complicate the game for the visitors, they received two red cards in the half. I guess we were exhausted from it. We pushed, but we didn’t take the big chances. We should have struck.’
Matěj Velev, Štípa assistant coach: “The second team from Štípa entered the match very actively, when the offensive occupied the home goalkeeper with a shower of shots in the first minutes. The goalless situation was broken in the 10th minute, when the nimble Mimochodek arrived after Šimka’s header. Immediately after a few minutes, Okál was fouled and Laciga made no mistake from the penalty kick. With a high number of 100% chances, it seemed that the game would be decided soon, but no further shots were found in the home team’s net. On the other hand, after a mistake and indiscipline by Štípa, after the change of sides thanks to two red cards (65th and 67th minute), the image of the game changed into a home onslaught, which, however, sounded empty due to its stereotypicness and the dedication of the “nine” players of Štípa, which brought the fifth clean sheet in line with the great catching goalkeeper Hambálek.”

WALASH HATS – LAČNOV 6:0 (4:0)
Jaroslav Maňas, chairman of Valašské Klobouk: “Lačnov was missing the goalkeeper and other key players, after the match they said that they accept this result. We played in their half, they played on breaks. They had a fast striker up front, they tried to attack us all the time, they didn’t give up. However, the boys combined to get chances, they finally shot each other. For us it’s a derby, they also came from Lačnov, the attendance was nice. Everything worked out, including the weather.”
Václav Miklovič, captain of Lačnov: “It didn’t go very well for us in the derby, a truncated line-up started. We made a lot of mistakes in it. Until the end of the season, we have to heal the injuries and still try to grab some points. We don’t give up, we have to fight!’
HIGH FIELD – KAŠAVA 4:2 (3:1)
Dominik Tománek, injured Vysoké Pole player: “I arrived at the match only after the twentieth minute, when the scoreboard read 3:0 for us. Even after rubbing my eyes twice. Patrik Patka scored twice after a fast break and the third time he scored a penalty. The guests managed to make it 3:1 before halftime, but shortly after halftime, Roman Machů hit a long ball and the guests were unable to make up for the three-goal deficit by the end of the match.”
Pavel Studénka, coach of Kašava: “We played a very unsuccessful match, I’m disappointed. It was a weakness. I warned the boys that it would be a difficult match, unfortunately we didn’t learn our lesson, we entered the match casually. I missed a better approach, responsibility. We played like professors. The home team were more combative, they outplayed us in every way. They even led 4:1, before the end of the match we reduced. They pulled out on us, they made up for the result from Štípa. They deservedly won.”
POTEČ/FRANCOVA LHOTA B – JASENNÁ 2:1 (1:0)
Zdeněk Tvarůžek, head of Poteč: “The victory was not easy at all. The opponent arrived with a complete line-up, which surprised even the leader SK Zlín in the opening round. From the first minute, a very active match was played, full of mutual duels, and the game was constantly transferred from one goal to another. We got into the lead thanks to overnumbering, when M. Slovák scored after a combination into an empty goal. In the second half, we were more active again, but our separate penetrations on the opponent’s goal did not change the score. We took a 2-0 lead in the 70th minute, when even our player didn’t know how the ball even hit the goal. The guests were more active at the end of the game, which led to the score being reduced to 2:1. The opponent’s direct kick was touched by our player, which our goalkeeper was unable to react to. We have a derby with Valašské Klobouky waiting for us, so we have to prepare for the next match. We don’t give up, we have to win points on the field and not rely on the mistakes of the next candidate for relegation, whose mistake and subsequent only financial penalty can paradoxically set a precedent for the entire competition.”
Milan Řezníček, coach of Jasenna: “The match did not go well for us at all. We came to Poteč for the obligatory three points, but we are leaving empty-handed. We performed so poorly last time in Kašava. We drew a lot of individual unforced errors. I can’t say that Manchaft didn’t fight, but often after a hard-fought battle, there was a bad pass, a failure to process a simple ball or a decision to try to go through three opponents. Basically, we only had two shots on goal. I don’t want to diminish the opponent’s performance, but now he was probably the one-eyed king among the blind.’
