Uneasy
Squad23 Nov 2026
Daniel Kosek and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.
Squad23 Nov 2026
Appearance number 100 for Jiří Borek
100 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.
Player ratings23 Nov 2026
A mark of 7.47, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

The view from the dugout
“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Karel Jankto chose the glass-half-full version of 0‑0; the supporters left with the other one.

Artis Brno take on the side everybody is chasing
Zbrojovka Brno arrive as leaders. A side at the top is beaten roughly once a month, and the club that does it gets a week it remembers for a year.
Squad23 Nov 2026
One booking too many, and Dominik Plechatý sits out. Artis Brno lose him for the sort of avoidable reason that makes a manager's week longer.
Player ratings23 Nov 2026
Successful dribbles: 13. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
Player ratings23 Nov 2026
Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 13 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. České Budějovice came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Dominik Plechatý’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Štěpán Harazim has written the date down.
