We have already seen it in the spring, that for the teams from Britain we are just villagers who nobody cares about. Slavia was often referred to as Prague, Slavia was often confused with Sparta.
When Steven Gerrard came for an interview after the Sparta game, he made the same mistake. However, he also wouldn’t have liked it if Pavel Vrba had confused Rangers with Celtic, or maybe Liverpool with Everton.
“We have to win the next game against Brondby to have a chance. In terms of performance, I think Slavia were quite calm in creating chances…,” Gerrard said in an interview with the club’s TV channel
“Does that idiot know who he was playing against? That’s already a trauma. Give him a break for a couple of years,” the fan wrote. “The fool doesn’t even know that Rangers played against Sparta and not against Slavia. It’s like Sparta saying they played Celtic. Go home and never come back,” another fan commented on Gerrard’s interview.
“It wasn’t Slavia we played against, mate,” a Scottish fan recalled. “Slavia, Sparta, it doesn’t matter, just like Rangers or Celtic, they both get the shit, ” another fan wrote on Twitter.
“Now we know why Celtic didn’t win in Prague on Thursday. Because they have Steven Gerrard as coach. To confuse the opposition after six months… Stupidity, ignorance, forgettable memories? Take your pick,” wrote another commenter.
