Coach Trpišovský relieved league played out and Slavia declared champions

Slavia Prague trainer Jindřich Trpišovský says he is relieved the final part of the Czech top flight football season was successfully played out and his players received the league title on Wednesday evening, after a goalless draw with Sparta Prague.

If the league had not been completed, no champion would have been declared, despite Slavia’s significant points lead when the Covid-19 lockdown halted games for months. Mr. Trpišovský said there had been a lot of speculation that the season would be abandoned at that time.
