Marked for Jakub Valjent

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Gregor Tóth stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Marek Kuzma yet — 7.88

At 38 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.88 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Transfer targets

Alex Húdok due for a Zlate Moravce medical

Everything agreed with AS Trencin, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets

Davis Kamess turns down Zlate Moravce

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Skonto keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad

Tempers go at Zlate Moravce

Vojtěch Kubista 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.

Squad

Zak Jules signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Zak Jules and Zlate Moravce agree another 3 years.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Jan Hladík

Zlate Moravce asked and MFK Ruzomberok said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market

One of our own: Erik Kucka joins the Zlate Moravce first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Erik Kucka is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Dominik Benes steps up from the Zlate Moravce academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Dominik Benes has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

In brief
