Straka let go as international coach after only one game

František Straka has been let go as manager of the Czech international football team after only one game in charge. Straka had been given an open-ended contract when he was hired to replace Petr Rada and his days became numbered when Ivan Hašek was elected chairman of the Czech football association last weekend. There have been suggestions that Hašek may himself take over as national team coach, a position he would share with Karel Jarolím, who would remain in the post of boss of Slavia Prague.
