Match

11 matches without a win for Mlada Boleslav

The run now stands at 11, and the questions being asked around Mlada Boleslav are no longer polite ones.

Squad

Tempers go at Mlada Boleslav

Christophe Kabongo was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings

Solomon John runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Roman Macek falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Squad

David Kozel signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” David Kozel and Mlada Boleslav agree another 4 years.

Match

Honours even between Mlada Boleslav and Zlin

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Squad

A fracture rules Denis Donát out for 69 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Mlada Boleslav will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match

Mlada Boleslav out of the cup

Sigma Olomouc ended it 0‑1. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Match

No end in sight to Mlada Boleslav's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Mlada Boleslav has to find a result from somewhere.

Market

Victor Boluwatife Ogungbayi hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Mlada Boleslav can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Ondřej Karafiát in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Mlada Boleslav this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Roman Macek falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

Match

3 matches without a goal for Mlada Boleslav

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 3 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Match

Viktoria Plzen take the points off Mlada Boleslav

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

No hiding place for Vojtěch Vorel

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Vojtěch Vorel, and the manager let it.

In brief
