11 saves: Pavel Soukup was the team
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 11 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

A hiding for Jihlava
Beaten 0‑3 by Zbrojovka Brno, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

The step up is real for Michal Kroupa
At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

The wait goes on for Jihlava
4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Jihlava leaking at the back
4 matches, two or more conceded in every one of them. Sides that create as much as this can live with it for a while. Nobody lives with it forever.
In brief
- Player ratings Nobody could get near Miroslav Křehlík
- The dugout The manager makes an example of Jakub Nečas
- Boardroom Nobody left the Jihlava dressing room in a hurry
