Player ratings

Michal Faško runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 42. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market

MFK Skalica come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and MSK Zilina did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Miroslav Káčer 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 MSK Zilina this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

The afternoon belonged to Lukáš Juliš

A mark of 7.93, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Match

MSK Zilina and MFK Skalica take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Michal Svoboda

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Kristian Duda

25 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. FK Senica lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Samuel Mazuch keeps FK Senica in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Market

MSK Zilina come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and FK Senica did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Erik Valjent stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Erik Valjent and FK Senica agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Tempers go at FK Senica

Milan Bero 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.

Match

6 goals as FK Senica and DAC Dunajska Streda go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 6 goals between FK Senica and DAC Dunajska Streda, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Match

FK Senica come up short against DAC Dunajska Streda

DAC Dunajska Streda left with the points after a 2‑4 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Erik Valjent

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Lukas Benes is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at FK Senica has been clear about where Lukas Benes stands, which is more than many ever get.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Milan Bero

Successful dribbles: 32. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

FK Senica win it in stoppage time

The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 90th minute. Spartak Myjava will replay every second of the added time for a week.

Squad

Samuel Mazuch signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Samuel Mazuch and FK Senica agree another 2 years.

Squad

Milan Bero 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 FK Senica this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Stefan Mazuch

At 19 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match

FK Senica see off Spartak Myjava

Three points for FK Senica, 1‑0 the final word against Spartak Myjava in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Market

Eyes on Kristian Mak again

The phone has started ringing about Kristian Mak again, and this time the name on the line is MSK Zilina. FK Senica are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad

Words at FK Senica training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Karol Suslov is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Market

Nobody at FK Senica has picked up the phone to Samuel Mazuch

24 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.
