They were looking forward to the weekend duel of the 15th round of the Chance League more than the prestigious Prague derby or fights in the European League. No wonder, because what they demonstrated has no parallel in the Central European region.

Choreo of Slavia fans before the match with Karvina.
Sunday’s duel between Slavia Praha and Karviná (5:1) did not belong to the hat-trick scorer Mojmír Chytil, but above all to the home fans.
On the occasion of the 132nd anniversary of the club’s founding, they prepared the biggest choreography that Czech football has ever seen.
The results of their efforts were breathtaking. The tarpaulins, on which motifs of Czechoslovak presidents and Harry Potter used in the past also shone, covered all the stands before the opening whistle.
Their subsequent fall revealed a filled Eden dressed in variously colored raincoats. The frenzy of the crowd made everyone cheer, and after a long time, the entire stadium was “jumping”, where over 19,000 spectators were crowded.

The breathtaking show was liked not only by the fans, but also by the players and coaches.
“It was probably the best thing I experienced here, together with Sevilla. After a few minutes, the referee started the match and I was a little sad that I had to “switch” to the match action. I wanted to watch again,” Slavia coach Henrich Trpišovský admitted to the Czech media.
Supporters of Slavia received praise abroad. The Ultras World portal, which has almost a million fans on Instagram, called their effort the top action of the year. Footage from the pre-match show was also broadcast by the American ESPN.
On social networks, some “Slavists” also took a dig at Slovan Bratislava.
Belasé’s choreo before last week’s Champions League match against Dinamo Zagreb received a lot of criticism in the ultras community.
The cardboard show and its stripes in Sector C were not regular, fans were missing in several places, any graphics were missing “Slavists, watch and learn!” This is how football choreo is done,” read one of the reactions.
After the dominant victory, Slavia consolidated its leadership in the highest Czech competition, it has an eight-point lead over second-placed Pilsen.
