Lukáš Makara's hat-trick after the break gave Slovan Giraltovce a 3-0 win over 1. FK Svidník

MFK Slovan Giraltovce - 1. FK Svidník 3-0 (0-0)

Makara 49', 55', 76'.

Saturday, 2 October 2021, 2:30 pm local time (12:30 UTC), MFK Slovan Stadium, Giraltovce, Slovakia, 11th round of the Slovak Third League - East Group (3. Liga - Východ).

Matchday 11 and the 11th defeat for 1. FK Svidník this season, which is even poorer than the previous one, and it gets worse by each round. In the meantime, their colleagues which have suffered equally during the previous year, MFK Slovan Giraltovce, succeeded to create a team that is now in mid-table, far from the emotions at the bottom of the table.

In the first half, 1. FK Svidník defended well and kept a clean sheet, surprisingly. The new goalkeeper, Viliam Rusinko, coming from Tesla Stropkov, had a few saves, and the defence functioned perfectly.

However, the hosts started the second half very determined to score as early as possible and to finish off any sort of resistance from the side of the visitors. Lukáš Makara scored for 1-0 in 49' and just a few minutes later he made it 2-0 (55') and it was all over, as 1. FK Svidník does not have the players to fight back and to score goals. Lukáš Makara's third goal came in 76', establishing the final score, 3-0.
