Champions League
Check out the great goal in the Sparta net! Antonín Panenka watched it too
Sparta is up 1-0, Rapid is working, Antonín Panenka, an iconic figure of Czechoslovak football, is watching and then the 63rd minute arrives! Knasmüllner, following Panenka’s example, lobbies the helpless goalkeeper Florin Nita. Coincidence?
Sparta is up 1::0, Rapid is working, the iconic figure of Czechoslovak football Antonín Panenka is watching and then the 63rd minute arrives! Knasmüllner, following Panenka’s example, lobbies the helpless goalkeeper Florin Nita. Coincidence? I guess the Football God just wanted it that way. Take another look at the great goal by the Austrian footballer.
The moment described above kicked the Rapid players into a turnaround. The match ended with the home team winning 2-1 and Sparta will have to make up for the one-goal deficit.
The Champions League is not yet lost for Sparta, but at Letná the Spartans will have to watch out for cheap turnovers.
Rapid are very capable in their quick transition to attack and have quality in their offensive game.
The match was also watched by Antonín Panenka, who was definitely not forgotten by the Austrian fans. He played 4 seasons for Rapid Vienna, won the Austrian League twice, the Austrian Cup 3 times and also participated in the Cup Winners’ Cup final (the predecessor of today’s Champions League).
For the Czech legend, Christoph Knasmüllner’s first goal certainly brought back memories of his unforgettable long ball. Personally, I wonder who the Czech legend was cheering for during the match.
