Ďolíček witnessed an outstanding game, wonderful atmosphere created by another large crowd and a rarity - both starting goalkeepers were ejected from the game.<br /> Both teams have a lot in common. Both teams went through bankruptcy nightmare and both teams purchased the participation rights for the second league from other teams. Both clubs were sporting an enviable 5-1-0 spring record before the game. <br />
In the end, to the joy of Bohemka fans, Bohemians extended their unbeaten streak by winning handsomely, although the score may be a bit misleading. Opava put up a good fight and Bohemka had to be very careful until the second goal in Opava’s net.
The game will also be remembered by fans for the ejection of both goalkeepers from the game. Bohemians’ Sňozík was sent off already in the 13th minute of the game for pulling down the opposing player on a breakaway outside of the penalty box. 19-year old Havránek had to replace him and did so well that he was declared the player of the game. At the other end of the field, Novák was ejected in the 39th minute of the game for playing a handball outside of the penalty box in a similar situation.
The game was decided by a substituting Škoda who scored the final two goals of the game. Although he is more at home on defense, his goal scoring touch cannot be ignored. He is working very hard to deserve his nickname “Crouch”.
Enough said - both situations preceding ejections and all three goals can be seen here (for a larger viewing area click on the button “Přehrávač v novém okně): low quality (128kbps) or high quality (512kbps).
Enjoy!
