Kozel po Plzni: Hráči v kabině brečeli, hořký konec hezké sezony

„Jsme zklamaní. Věřili jsme, že tady máme šanci něco uhrát. Zároveň jsme věděli, že to bude těžké, protože Plzeň taky hrála o hodně. Bohužel jsme zápas nezvládli, rozhodly momenty v první půli. Brzký gól z první střely na bránu, kdy jsme to nevyřešili dobře, druhy z prvního rohu. Celý rok jsme ze standardek moc neinkasovali, tentokrát hned dvakrát. Je to pro nás hořký konec hezké sezony,“ litoval po porážce kouč Severočechů Luboš Kozel.

Trenére, mrzí porážka o to víc, že Sparta nevyhrála, takže vám stačil bod?

Samozřejmě. Věděli jsme, že Olomouc vedla. Říkali jsme si, že by nám konečně zasvítily hvězdy nahoře, ale Sparta vyrovnala, takže si to uhrála sama. K bodu jsme měli daleko, od začátku zápasu jsme tahali za kratší konec.

Můžete být na tým pyšný, ale vysněná vstupenka do Evropy z toho není. Jak moc se to ve vás mísí?

Jsme smutní, zklamaní. Někteří kluci v kabině brečeli, to je prostě fotbal. Koukali jsme, že loni se do pohárů dostala Boleslav, která měla 47 bodů. Rok předtím Bohemka 52. My máme 63, ale nestačí to. Bohužel, měli jsme si třeba poradit lépe v poháru. Sigma to zvládla, zaslouženě si to uhrála sama. Nejsem zklamaný v souhrnu celé sezony, uhráli jsme několik výborných výsledků, v nadstavbě 12 bodů. Do hry jsme se vrátili jen díky našim výkonům. Ani jsme možná už nedoufali, že můžeme honit a větrat Spartu.

Trenér Jablonce Luboš Kozel při porážce 1:4 na hřišti Viktorie Plzeň.

Ceníte si pátého místa o to víc, že jste za sebou nechali týmy, které před sezonou vyhlásily větší ambice?

Je hezký, že jsme před nimi, ale samozřejmě náš fokus byl už úplně na něco jiného. S jídlem roste chuť. Koukali jsme i na Spartu, abychom ji dostali pod sebe, což by byl obrovský úspěch. Když budu hodnotit s odstupem, tak samozřejmě hodně kladně. Když se podíváte rok zpátky, kdo předpokládal, že budeme v první šestce? Ještě jsme v ní hráli tak významnou roli… Spokojení být musíme.

I proti těžkým soupeřům jste hráli pohledné zápasy. Máte největší radost z prezentace Jablonce?

Když to tak řeknu, já jiný fotbal učit neumím. Vím, že je to někdy těžký. Tím spíš, pokud se hraje v ročním období, kdy terény nejsou v dobrém stavu. Myslím, že i hráče baví fotbalová hra. Samozřejmě někdy musíte hrát stylem účel světí prostředky. Myslím si, že tvář, kterou máme, výsledkům pomáhá. Ideální spojení. Mohlo nám přinést i úspěch v podobě postupu do Evropy, ale bohužel se nám to nepodařilo.

Jak moc vám brzké zranění Petra Ševčíka zkomplikovalo hru?

Zásah to je, ztratíte jedno střídání. Navíc je pro nás důležitý. V posledních zápasech hrál výborně, určitě by byl na hřišti znát. Nechci říct, že Honza Suchan to odehrál nějak špatně, ale ztratíte možnost udělat změnami víc.

Nuceně jste střídali i ve druhém poločase?

V nějaké 66. minutě jsme si to vypili, když se nám zranili dva hráči najednou. Museli jsme střídat už potřetí kvůli zranění. Dopili jsme si kalich. Pak už moc prostor střídat takticky nebyl.

O vaše hráče bude teď zájem. Tušíte, co se bude dít v létě?

Nabídky už nějaké jsou, myslím si ale, že vedení je rozumné. Může to být v našem klubu závislé i na jiných mimo fotbalových věcech. Ale pokud by to dobře dopadlo, tak je snaha o kontinuitu, aby se mužstvo pokusilo udržet pohromadě. Samozřejmě k nějakým odchodům dojít může, ale budeme se snažit tým doplnit. Určitě bychom nechtěli, aby se to celé rozsypalo.

Je naopak nějaký post, kde byste rád viděl posílení?

Máme představu. U některých hráčů na hostování ještě nevíme, jestli budou pokračovat, i když bychom třeba chtěli. Všechno závisí na tom. Není to tak, že bychom vyloženě hledali nějaký post.

Jak moc vás Jablonec nakopl do další práce? Máte velkou chuť?

Mně chuť nechybí. Měl jsem ji i v loni, kdy nám s Libercem chyběl jeden gól, abychom taky byli v první šestce. Motivaci jsem měl, tenhle rok patří v mé trenérské kariéře k těm nejlepším. Podobně jsem to měl i v Dukle, kdy se nám dařilo a uhráli jsme výborný výsledky. Jsem rád, že jsme si s týmem sedli, táhneme za jeden provaz. Kluci pochopili, co jsme od nich chtěli a věřili tomu, že to může přinést úspěch.

Alex Bregman dealing with ‘significant’ right quad injury as Red Sox place infielder on injured list

Getty Images Boston Red Sox third baseman Alex Bregman exited Friday afternoon's game against the Baltimore Orioles and was placed on the injured list on Saturday with what manager Alex Cora described as a "significant" right quad injury -- similar to the one that cost him more than two months in 2021.

(You can read more about Mayer here.)Bregman roped a single to left field in the fifth inning, rounded first base, then immediately called for the trainer and exited the game with a slight limp. Bregman told reporters on Saturday that he felt worse than expected. He subsequently underwent an MRI before being placed on the shelf.Here's the play that saw Bregman hurt himself: Boston was already without first baseman Triston Casas, who […]

Steve Nash says MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is ‘ascending towards’ Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant levels
