The match against Spartak Trnava in the league is over. The points are nearing the end, and there is only one game left for each team.

US Trencin itself has confirmed the points as much as twenty-nine and is still at home in the fifth position of the standings.

Position four itself still has Podbrezova with the acquisition of thirty-two. If you look at the number of goals, although US Trencin will win in the last game against this team, US Trencin will not be able to shift his position.

In the third position itself there is Spartak Trnava who is already at home and will not be shifted position with points as much as forty.

Second place with the team named DAC 1904, has a total number of points over 21 league weeks as much as forty-four.

The first position is clearly visible. Slovan Bratislava is number one with forty eight points. Slovan Bratislava is the most successful team in the Slovak Super League. Has many league titles throughout being in this caste. The most dominant team in the Slovak Super League.

Closer to Reza, he was currently resting in his dorm room. After a grueling match, Coach Marian Zimen gave the players an instant rest.

That is so that in the Slovak Cup later, they are not exhausted. Yes, the Slovak Cup, US Trencan will play Tatran Presov in the quarter-finals. It will take place on Tuesday, February 28, 2023.

It's only three days away. Reza also hopes his teammates can replenish their stamina. Yes, Reza also understands, the league in Europe or even in the Indonesian league must also be there in one week can play up to 2 games.

A tight schedule is reasonable. So Reza wasn't really surprised. Reza also wants to become more famous in his popularity.

Saturday, 25 February 2023 at 23:00 local time.

Reza opened his social network. There, when scrolling the homepage. Reza got an account of the Indonesian football federation released a list of the squad that will compete in the AFC 2023 U-20 Asian Cup on March 1.

“Wah .. clearly not called Coach Shin. My age looks too young, there may be affairs with the federation and I just have to prepare for the 2023 AFC U-17 Asian Cup on May 3.”

Reza also opened a comment. The thing that makes him smile funny is that many do tag to his Instabook account because he was not called.

This post happened about ten hours ago.

“Hahaha!”

Reza also replied to him for a moment some people who tagged his account. His review aimed to code for the U-20 national team coach and also the senior national team, namely Coach Shin so that Reza could be called up.

I wasn't called? Come on, I'm still focused here and .. I'll be preparing for the 2023 AFC U-17 Asian Cup on May 3rd until it's over, it may also be the FIFA U-20 World Cup 2023 on May 20 until it is finished and the AFC Asian Cup 2023 later on June 16 until it is finished, hihi~

‘Yaa .. although the match time between the AFC 2023 U-17 Asian Cup and the 2023 FIFA U-20 World Cup is very close. AFC 2023 U-17 Asian Cup starts May 3 and ends May 20. It looks like the World Cup will be difficult for me to do,’ Inner Reza with all thoughts.

Such is the reply from Reza as the person concerned. A few replies were seen, Reza almost choked on her own saliva.

If in Slovakia at 23:00 or 11:00 PM. So in Indonesia it is 06:00 AM and it is already tomorrow day.

That early they opened social media. Too soon. It's really a warganet habit there.

“Lah .. They even regret, dahlah! Residents of netizens themselves are hard to tell,” muttered Reza and immediately turned off his smartphone.

He prefers to be quiet and does not want to reply again netizens who cannot be told. They look ‘batu’, not listening.

Reza chose to sleep instead of thinking about it.

Coach Marian Zimen wants to win the Slovak Cup. After the Quarter-finals, the Semifinals and beyond are the finals. It is still quite long in fact, and will definitely be against Slovak Cup subscriptions such as Slovan Bratislava and Spartak Trnava.

If he wins, it will be Reza's first European title and his first in his career.

Day after day until the quarter-finals of the Slovak Cup have come. The crowd and supporters flocked to the stadium to see their beloved team competing.

“Good, this formation has been fitting. So ... let's do!” exclaim Coach Marian Zimen.

Reza is still loyal as the starting line-up. Looks like the other goalkeepers have been shifted position after the arrival of the Reza miracle.

The first round match began. The thing that should not be done is negligence in the early minutes of the game.

Tatran Preesov is the second-tier league team in the Slovak league. League order from highest to lowest. Slovak Super League, then Slovak League 2 to Slovak League 4 which is the lowest caste.

Back on the field, the US team Trencin has been pressing from the beginning of the game. The team they are playing against this time is fairly easy, which is a team that is struggling for promotion to the Slovak Super League.

Tatran Preesov has been depressed since the beginning of the game. With their full squad, it has been difficult to dispel pressure after pressure from the US.

Reza himself this time more courageous forward to the middle of the field. When he was approached by an opposing player, his technique came out which made many spectators and supporters amazed.

Nutmeg techniques. The opposing player was deceived and instead humiliated by Reza by the technique of inserting the ball between the gaps of both feet.

After that Reza immediately overlap without caring about his empty goal leaping. His teammates were a bit scared, let alone Coach Marian Zimen who was letting out a taut sweaty grain as Reza dribbled forward.

Until it was in the opposing area, Reza immediately catapulted the ball to Witan on the flank that pierced into the penalty box. Welcoming Reza's hull bait, Witan took advantage of this situation. Tatran Preesov's confused backline makes a fatal mistake and lets Witan move freely.

“Make goals!” shout Reza.

Witan also welcomed Reza's bait with a volley. After the ball touched the ground and reflected off, Witan immediately took off a measured kick to the far post.

Goalkeeper Tatran Preesov was unable to reach the ball that had entered the goal. The kick made the score turn 1-0 in the fifth minute.

Reza and his team did the celebration. This time Witan jigged in front of the camera, Reza followed him.

A quick goal from AS Trencin, starting from the courage of Reza, then his measured hull pass that was successfully utilized by Witan and created the goal.

The match resumed. In this Slovak Cup, the resistance of Tatran Preesov is not so big even quite a bit. Reza is not too depressed for this time, different against Spartak Trnava.

This made US Trencin lead the match with a score of 3-0 until the end of the round.

Yes, the other two goals were scored by Emeka and Reza respectively. Reza certainly back kicking from a free kick, doing a perfect knuckle shoot technique, the goalkeeper can only stare at the peaceful ball that freely goes into the goal.
