Match29 Sep 2029

MFK Ruzomberok run riot against FK Senica

3‑0, and the margin flattered nobody — it could have carried another goal or two without complaint. Afternoons like this are why people keep coming.

Market1 Oct 2029

Britt Assombalonga puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at MFK Ruzomberok, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad1 Oct 2029

Kevin Wimmer 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 MFK Ruzomberok this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad1 Oct 2029

Kristian Pekarik signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Kristian Pekarik commits to MFK Ruzomberok for another 4 years.

Squad1 Oct 2029

Matěj Koubek 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.

Match29 Sep 2029

At last: MFK Ruzomberok win one

5 matches without a win, and then this, against FK Senica. Relief is a strange noise in a football ground and it was the only noise at the end.

Player ratings1 Oct 2029

Ondřej Šašinka in the eights

A performance of 8.19 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

No hiding place for Britt Assombalonga

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

Match1 Oct 2029

Halfway: MFK Ruzomberok sit in position 9

9 points at the turn. The first half of a season is a promise; the second is a bill, and the town is about to find out which of the two this one was.

Squad6 Aug 2029

Matúš Sláviček keeps MFK Ruzomberok in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 15 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Match4 Aug 2029

Nowhere to hide for MFK Ruzomberok

0‑3 against Slovan Bratislava, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Market6 Aug 2029

Martin Šulek is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at MFK Ruzomberok is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market6 Aug 2029

Dávid Húska agrees terms with Spartak Myjava

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around MFK Ruzomberok people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Squad6 Aug 2029

Alexander Mojžiš has been here 10 seasons

239 appearances across 10 seasons in one shirt. Nobody builds a career like that on purpose any more; it happens to a certain kind of footballer at a certain kind of club.

Market6 Aug 2029

Attila Horváth 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 MFK Ruzomberok can pretend not to have heard.

Squad6 Aug 2029

Real improvement from Kristian Pekarik at MFK Ruzomberok

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Kristian Pekarik is 17, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad6 Aug 2029

Kevin Wimmer 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 MFK Ruzomberok this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market6 Aug 2029

Talks stall between MFK Ruzomberok and Kevin Wimmer

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
