They did not play well, they suffered, but they believed until the end. That may be the main reason of their victory against Inter Bratislava, the biggest candidate on the top league. “Playtime in football is 90 minutes and you can still win even in extra time,“ the young forward Filip Hlohovský commented concisely after the game.

It was his corner kick after which the ball ended in the net after Križko’s header three minutes before the end of the game. Standard situations have lately been the biggest weakness of AS. Hlohovský has kicked most of them. “I was really unsatisfied with myself in this regard. I even wanted to send someone else kick the last corner, but changed my mind in the end. I said to myself that at least one standard situation must work out and it finally did,“ the promising scorer commented with a wide smile on his face.

Inter did not deserve to lose this game, but that is not how football is like. “We did not play as we wanted from the very beginning. Victories like this are the most valuable though. The victory was literally carved out. We have a young team. We are still learning and collecting experiences,” Hlohovský said and continued; “We suffered a long-time crisis after the previous game against Inter. We will do our best so the opposite happens now.”

Trenčín players have often shown their fighting spirit at the home stadium. It seems like they miss it before the away games. “We miss more fighting in spite of the fact that the surface at the home stadium is worse in this regard. Maybe it is easier for us thanks to the support from our fans at home. We have to play more responsible in the defense and concentrate on breaks. We have to fight harder, maybe even harder than against Inter,” Hlohovský concluded.
