League of Nations? Overall, I rate it positively. We gained great experience in the strongest group, said Šilhavý

The Czech national football team has completed another year of the Nations League. After a promising start, the Czechs have lost four games in a row and will be back in Division B next year. What did coach Jaroslav Šilhavý say after the loss in Switzerland?

At the start of the Nations League, the Czech national football team defeated Switzerland and almost defeated Spain, who equalised in the last minute. But the euphoria did not last long.

The Czechs lost all their remaining matches and did not last long among the elite. How does the coach Jaroslav Šilhavy, who is now being called out by a large number of fans, evaluate the whole period?

“Overall, I evaluate it positively. I think that all of us, the players and us, gained great experience from these matches in the strongest group. It was priceless,” he said at the press conference.

“The game against Portugal at home was definitely not good for us, the first half at home (in Lisbon). Otherwise, the games were pretty good, we weren’t exactly the big underdog.

We kept up with them. We can build on the results we did in the first two games. Themotivation will be great to try to get back again,” he added.

The goal is logical, but relegation also means the Czechs will not be in the first basket for the European Championship qualification draw. However, England and France will also be in the second basket, so it is not a big setback.

However, the Czechs will still show up on the pitch this year. They have scheduled friendlies against Faroe Islands and Turkey. However, we will have to wait for some time for that.
