Koubek accepted defeat with dignity
The end of Boleslav's hopes in the European competition was received with sadness and dignity by the coach Miroslav Koubek. In the meeting with journalists he stressed the opponent's qualities, and hinted at what the players of Boleslav lack to be more successful.
Draw was the last score in the European League for them
Boleslav footballers did not manage to overcome their opponent from Larnaca in either of the two matches, and consequently left the European competition faster than they had imagined when coming back to it after four years of tremendous effort.
Koubek angry with the players for the third goal
Cyprian Larnaca finished off Czech Boleslav by three goals, and the press conference immediately after the match saw great difference in the mood of both the coaches. Kaanen of Larnaca radiated happiness, Koubek of Mladá Boleslav was devastated by the unexpected debacle.
They've come back from Larnaca with small hope for rematch
Cyprus was a bad news for Boleslav. It got three goals and scored none. This spells quite a miserable position in the European cup mathematics. The closest to goal of all the Boleslav players was Kúdela, but his shot hit the goalpost when the score was still open.
Chances to advance are equal both for Boleslav and Larnaca
The path from the third qualifying round to the final play-off phase of the Europa League is equally long for Boleslav and Larnaca. The coach and the players share the same opinion. They respect their opponent's strength but they wish to advance.
They season ends with an expected victory
A deserved victory over the relegated Ústí was assured by Kulič and Mendy. Boleslav confirmed fifth place in the 2010/11 Gambrinus League.
Penalty kicks decide Cup game, Boleslav wins
For both rivals the final match of the national cup, for the second year organized under the title of the Ondrášovka Cup, was the last chance to make it through to the preliminary round of the European League. Mladá Boleslav was the one to succeed.
Finally the joy of victory after five losses
The Boleslav team lost five matches in a row, but in the second last round in Uherské Hradiště they collected all the points, enjoyed their victory dance in the changeroom and jumped up to fifth position.
Own goal results in loss
Boleslav was quickly behind in this otherwise equal match, and failed to catch up. This was the fifth league match lost in a row, and the third on home turf. Jablonec had been beaten eight times since 2007.
A loss to Pilsen after four victories
Mladá Boleslav has beaten Viktoria Plzeň in their last four matches. It happened twice in league games (4:0 in the spring and 4:3 in the autumn), and also in this year's cup matches (home 2:1 and away 2:1). But this time they were just not up to it.
