Date: 9 May 2026 | Venue: Stadion u Nisy, Liberec
Sparta Praha Women edged Slovan Liberec 1‑0 in a closely contested Czech Women's Liga fixture. The single goal, scored midway through the first half, proved enough to extend Sparta's unbeaten run and keep pressure on the league leaders.
The Decisive Moment
The only goal arrived in the 26th minute. Sparta midfielder Karolína Ševčíková collected a pass on the right, cut inside, and unleashed a powerful left‑footed shot from 20 metres. The ball curled beyond the reach of Liberec keeper Anna Hájková and nestled into the far corner.
Defensive Resilience
Slovan Liberec pushed for an equaliser after the break, enjoying more possession and creating several half‑chances. Striker Tereza Košková came closest in the 72nd minute, but her close‑range header was brilliantly saved by Sparta goalkeeper Lenka Rusová.
Sparta's defence, marshalled by captain Petra Nováková, remained resolute, absorbing pressure and clearing danger effectively.
Key Talking Points

- Liberec lacked creativity in the final third; only two shots on target all match.
- Ševčíková's goal was her fifth of the season, making her Sparta's second‑top scorer.
Standout Player: Karolína Ševčíková
