My goal? One of the most important of my career. How did Ivan Schranz evaluate the match against Raków?

Sixth time in a row. Prague Slavia will not escape participation in the European Cup this year either, as they defeated Polish Raków 2:0 in the return home game and can look forward to the Europa League’s regular group. How did Ivan Schranz, the hero of the match, evaluate this match?

Slavia Prague can look forward to the next stage of the Conference Europa League, the group stage, thanks to their victory over Raków in the last round of the preliminary round.

It should be noted that Slavia’s Polish opponent was a dangerous opponent in the first half, but still produced only one shot on target for the Prague team and the fans did not see any goal after the opening half.

But that changed in the second half, when Moses Usor was the first to score in the 62nd minute. But Eden then exploded with joy in the 120th minute when Slovakian Schranz scored the decisive goal of the game after a great centre from Peter Olayinka.

This is how Schranz commented on his goal at the press conference. However, he then added that the match with Sevilla was already a reminder for the players of Slavia before the match. From the match in 2019, he said, they also played some standard situations and now everyone involved was expecting a similar scenario.

“The celebration after the goal was very wild, but all the more beautiful,” Schranz added.

Schranz’s assessment of the match

“It’s a beautiful end to our efforts. From the beginning we went for it, stuck to our tactics and created chances. The boys started the game well and we finished it off with our substitutions. I’m glad it ended this way and we can look forward to Europe,” says Schranz enthusiastically.

“We had to change our game compared to the first game, it was not good from our side. Rakow deserves respect for the performance he gave in the double match. It was a really tough opponent. That makes us even happier now,” admits the Bratislava native.

We took advantage of our experience, took advantage of the home environment, improved and finished the process. It is perhaps a pity that such quality teams met in the preliminary round, Raków would have deserved Europe for their performance,” he realizes.

The Slovak striker also thanked the fans afterwards. It must be added, the atmosphere in Eden was truly electric and as Schranz himself noted, every second the fans drove their players to score and to win.
