The son of the legend was a captain, he was also helped by the Trnava custom. What will Spartac fans calm down? – SME
The priority of Trnava is probably the Cup again.
Kosice, Trnava. They have the same first name and surname. They divide them for almost thirty years. Marek Ujlaky Elder is a legend Spartaka Trnava.
To this day he is the second best scorer in the history of the club. He was associated with the predominant part of his career. He was the leader of the team and the captain.
The captain’s tape has already been stretched by his son. At the age of 21. It is due to the habit that works in Spartak Trnava.
According to him, the captain should be a club off. And since Ujlaky was the only Trnava in the basic line -up, he had this task.
The blackest day in Spartac history? The heroes became the soldiers, they were Čáry-Máry, says Ďuso Šimon Read
However, he will not remember the match in Košice. The Trnava people lost 1: 2 and did not play the ideal match.
« We did not work at all the tracked couple with Ulin (nickname Ujlaky, ed.) On the right. We kicked a lot of mistakes, which also resulted the second goal, » said coach Michal Gašparík at a press conference.
Won after the weakest spring performance
Until mid -March, it was true that Trnava lost only three times in all competitions in all competitions. In the European Cup with Wisla List Krakow, in the league at home with Slavs AV Žilina.
However, this is no longer the case. Spartac football players already have six losses on their account, while the remaining three have scored in the last week.
At first they lost to Žilina 2: 4, then in the Slovak Cup at Slovan 1: 2 and finally in Košice 1: 2.
« We slept the first half. It was without emotions and without commitment. We were lethargic. In Košice it was seen that they wanted to finally conquer us, » said Gašparík.
From the advance of Košice to the highest competition, Trnava won four times, of which two times in Košice and once tied. She lost in the sixth match.
« Two feelings are mixed in me. I am very happy that we deservedly won. Although it was the weakest performance in the spring, » said Košice coach Roman Skuhravý.
Trnava was missing the defensive leader
Trnavčani joined without Lukáš Štetina, Martin Mikovič, Romana Procházka I Philip Azanga, who will not play for the end of the season.
« Today we lacked a bristle as a defensive leader. Mikovic and Azang are used to each other and when we put two new players there, this party was completely interconnected, » Gašparík said.
In all three lost matches, there were passages in which the Trnava people were more active and created enough goal opportunities.

(Source: TASR)« I think that if we played the way we started the second half, it would be a different result. The turning point was that although we were able to close Košice on their half and we had a few chances, but we didn’t change them, » admitted Trnava coach.
The second goal was Košice in 68 minutes. In the extra time, the visiting Erik Sabo just reduced.
« After the second goal it was open almost like in the training. Both teams had a chance. We needed a goal in the score 0: 1, but we scored it late, » he added.
Fatigue? According to the numbers, it didn’t look like that
The Trnava people played three matches within eight days. Especially in the first half it seemed to be tired of the demanding program.
« I also had the feeling, but then we look at the numbers and the second half in which the players rode up-down and did a lot of sprints, » Gašparík thought.
Spartak is third in the table. He loses thirteen points to the leader from Slovan, only three to Žilina. Before the fourth Dunajská Streda they have eight points.
It looks like they should end up in the league at least the third. Six laps remain until the end of the competition. Gašparík points out that if they play as in Košice, they have nothing to sure.
« Now we lacked emotions and desires. If we don’t give what we are like in Trnava, we will have a problem in the league, » he thinks.
Spartac’s priority is again a cup
At the end of the previous seasons, the Trnava people almost always preferred the Slovak Cup over the league competition.
Coach Gašparík saved the players in the league to be 100 % ready for the cup. It seems that it will be so now. It looks as if he was already thinking of retaliation of the Slavic Cup (April 15).
Gašparík gave a clear legacy to Trnava fans. I have a plan to get to the finals, says Read
Previously, Trnava plays on Saturday 12th April in Podbrezová. And four days after the Cup derby will also be on the program (April 19).
« Now we have to get together, we have a week and then three matches, two of them with Slovan. The hardest will be at home Slovan in the semi -finals of the Cup, at least one goal. We saw how difficult Žilina had with them, » Gašparík admitted.
The demanding Trnava fans are disappointed after three losses. To be more satisfied after the season, Spartak will have to get through Slovan to the final of the cup and then win it.
Or finish in the league second. So highly were not the Trnava people since the 2017/2018 season, in which they won the championship title.
