Bolka defended a point one man down
The Boleslav players lost the first half in which they conceded two goals and untimely saw Kalina sent from the pitch. However it was at least a point gained when they scored two late goals while playing a man down. Sylvestre reduced the gap in the 77th minute and Pecka equalized in the second minute of added time. The head-coach of Mladá Boleslav, Pavel Hapal, made two changes to the line-up from the preceding match. He deployed Rolko in defence and Kúdela in the centre of the midfield line. Procházka, Sedláček, Dittrich, Hrdlička, Nečas, Opiela and Šeda were left on the bench, and the injured Kysela, Řezníček and Táborský did not travel with the team to Haná at all.
Bolka lost a home match for the second time
The tradition of the matches between Boleslav and Brno was retained. And even twice – there were many goals and the guest team enjoyed points. The Boleslav team lost both home matches in the opening of the spring season when they conceded a total of six goals in them. After Jablonec, Brno defeated Boleslav, too. The Brno players managed to score important goals in the openings of both halves. Pecka and Papadopulos from the Boleslav team hit only the goal post in the first half and the referee Adam forgave the Brno defenders evident hand balls in the penalty area twice. It means that Boleslav slipped down from the second to the fourth position in the league standings.
A header by Papadopulos was not enough
FK Mladá Boleslav - FK Baumit Jablonec 1:2 (0:1)
The opening match of the 2009 spring season was unsuccessful and became a bitter experience for the Boleslav team because of two goals conceded from the boots of the experienced Jablonec players Čížek and Lafata. The Boleslav players wasted the whole first half when they gave an unexpectedly average football performance. They moved up a gear only after the second goal was conceded but it was too late for them to close the gap. “We did not deserve any points for the first half,” said very disappointed head-coach Pavel Hapal.
A successful rehearsal with six goals
FK Mladá Boleslav - Baník Sokolov 6:1 (2:0)
The Mladá Boleslav club invited the sixth team of the second league, Baník Sokolov, to the last preparatory match or final test of the playing form before the Gambrinus league. The Boleslav players overcame their rival clearly decisively and scored several times. Sylvestre made two goals while Pecka, Dittrich, Poláček and Kalina each added one. The head coach, Hapal exchanged all eighteen nominated players. Barely three hundred spectators came to watch the match from the frozen terraces of Městský stadion (Municipal Stadium) in Mladá Boleslav late Sunday afternoon.
Football St. Nicholas at school and children’s home
They managed to participate in the start of lessons in the sports academy classes at the Pastelka 9th elementary school as well as to visit the Na Celně Children’s Home in the afternoon. They presented gifts and a good mood and supported the Advent atmosphere everywhere. They also confirmed that football is a natural part of both the common and festive lives of people of all generations in Mladá Boleslav.
