The former coach of the Slovak national team also defended former trustee Dávid Hanck, who faced criticism for being at the birth of his child instead of being represented. “It was very close, on the other hand it must be respected. The owner of Baník Ostrava plus the management decided to hire him practically after the release of Pavel Vrba,” Hapal told ČTK and the Sport.cz server at the “Kanonieri in Kroměříž” event. “Of course, that also gave me logic, because they wanted him some time ago. By the fact that Pavel relaxed, my engagement went sideways. I am sorry for Tarkovič. Since October 2020, when he was removed from the Slovak national team, he has not led any team. “Something is going on, but you know what it’s like in the coaching industry. One has to wait for some suitable offer to get one,” Hapal said. His Slovak successor Stefan Tarkovich ended last week after an unexpected domestic 0: 1 defeat with Kazakhstan in the League of Nations. “I’m a little sorry for him, because during the sudden it certainly wasn’t easy,” said the former offensive player of Olomouc, Leverkusen or Tenerife.

The chance is minimal, because Kazakhstan just needs to win one match and advance,” said Hapal. According to him, the Slovak national team is facing a generational change. “I would not take it as a great tragedy. Probably Slovakia will need to rebuild the whole team. This has already started to happen during my engagement, when the older players are finished. . Hancka defended, he does not understand his criticism He also stated that he did not understand why the Spartan defender Hancko was also criticized by Tarkovič for apologizing for the national team due to the approaching date of his wife and former Czech tennis player Kristýna Plíšková. The couple had a son, Adam, at the end of May. Photo gallery (3) Source: Profimedia “I will support Hanci here because it is a life event. A child was born to him and he wanted to be with his family, which I absolutely respect. No one should take it lightly. Will anyone say that he preferred the child before the national team, so I approve of it, because this is in the first place, “said Hapal. Author: © Zoznam Source: CTK
