The Spartak players broke their teeth on the great Krajčírik

Spartak started in Ružomberok with a three-man defense and the pair Ristovski - Paur operated in front. However, Trnava started very badly when they conceded from the very first action. Regáli sent a cross from the left side into the box, the ball reached the back post to Gerec, who easily opened the scoring from close range.

The conceded goal of the red-black team started the game. In the 7th minute, Daniel received the ball from Mojžiš in the opponent's penalty area, passed it to the running Bukat, who, however, did not have time to finish in a good position. In the 11th minute, after a fight between Ristovský and Fabiš, the ball bounced to Mikovič, who headed for the crossbar without preparation, but Krajčírik made a fantastic save. In the 18th minute, for a change, Mikovič freed Paura with a lob, who remained behind the defense alone in front of Krajčírik, he also chose a lob but also threw the goal. Five minutes later, after Daniel's cross, Krajčírik extended the ball to Mikovič, but he did not hit the goal. Soon, however, Spartak got the equalizer. Štetina started a nice action with a series of short passes by poking the ball to Kelemen, and Ristovski ended it with a clever push to Bukata. He then routinely turned his raid into an equalizing goal.

Even after the equalizer, Spartak did not let up and continued to have the upper hand on the field, but Ružomberok struck again out of nowhere. After a direct kick from the left side, the ball fell onto Mrva's boot, bounced off him into the post and ended up in the net. Procházka, who was in front of Krajčírik on the right side, could have equalized before the break, he tried to undershoot him, the ball passed under him, but according to the stick in the wrong direction. To make matters worse, Procházka on the opposite side unluckily pushed out Regáli, who comfortably added the third goal and Ružomberok won the half by two goals, although depending on the course of the game, they could have lost.

The picture of the game did not change even at the beginning of the second half. Bukata had the first goal in 54 minutes, to whom Mikovič put the ball on his head, but the header flew past the bar of the helpless Krajčírik. However, the tireless Mikovič arrived shortly after. He ran from the left side, collided with Ristovski in front of the penalty area, overtook the defender and scored unstoppably. After the goal, the home team recovered a bit and came out of their defensive shell. After the break, however, Trnava could be happy. Mikovič was there again, he entered the penalty area, but looked for Ristovský's pass, finally shot Bukat at the defender and Štefánik ended the action by moving the ball into the net, but from an offside position. In the 78th minute, Bukata got to the deflected shot again, but shot over the edge of the penalty area. In the end, things were already on fire in front of Krajčírik, but the home goalkeeper was in a trance, and his teammates can especially thank him for making it to the win. In the 86th minute, Ristovski, who played well, could have had a third goal assist when he released Boateng, but he once again despised the 100% chance and fired the ball only to Krajčírik. He was a hero even in the last minutes, when after Iván's pass he first grabbed a chance for Ristovski and soon again for Boateng, twice for a change.

REVIEWS AFTER THE MATCH

Peter Struhár (Ružomberok): "Michal evaluated it well. We had an excellent start to the match, we scored a quick goal. We started from one game system, in the second half from another, we wanted to catch Trnava by surprise. However, she combined well, she knew how to open our extreme verticals. We were efficient, we punished Trnava's mistakes and we led 3:1. Entering the 2nd half was fine, but we had a problem keeping the ball offensively. I won't even comment on the end of the match. There was one guy who thought that Trnava wouldn't score a third goal, he pulled it off. The whole team worked hard, we needed this victory, but today we were very happy."

Michal Gašparík (Trnava): "Today we gifted victory to Ružomberok because we made huge mistakes. We don't usually get three goals in a game and today we got them in half time. At the same time, offensively, it was probably our best performance, we had many chances that we could not convert. At halftime we believed that we could score points and even a point would not be enough. According to the course of the match, dme could have won here today."
