Sparta Stunned by Teplice, Karviná Crushed; Slavia Prepares for Plzeň Clash

In a surprising turn of events in Czech football, Sparta Prague faced an unexpected setback against Teplice. Despite starting strong, with an early goal from Daniel Mareček in the sixth minute, the team faltered. Teplice equalized in the 18th minute thanks to Dalibor Večerka. After the break, Matěj Radosta put Teplice ahead, shocking the home crowd. Although Patrik Vydra managed to score an equalizer for Sparta in the 76th minute, they could not secure the win, leading to another disappointing result. This marks just one victory in their last seven competitive matches, indicating a deepening crisis for Sparta.

Karviná Crushed by Liberec

In contrast, Slovan Liberec delivered a resounding performance against Karviná. The match began aggressively, with Raimonds Krollis scoring in the 9th minute. Karviná’s Aboubacar Traore received a red card four minutes later, leaving them a man down. Before halftime, Ermin Mahmic scored twice, while Vojtěch Stránský added another goal. Substitute Lukáš Mašek further solidified Liberec’s dominance with two additional goals, resulting in a comprehensive victory. This win marked Liberec’s first home success since August 9.
