Marek Hamsik made a touching appeal to the nation before the start of the European Championship. Below are the words of the former Napoli player.
These are hot weeks for Slovakia and beyond. Last May 15, the prime minister Robert Fico was the victim of an attack by a citizen. The nation’s protagonist was shot five times in the city of Handlova. It all happened in front of the population, who were amazed by this gesture. The president’s state immediately appeared very critical, causing concern within the government and beyond.
A few weeks later, conditions have improved and Robert Fico is not in danger of losing his life. Nonetheless, however, the cruelty of the gesture that brought the whole of Slovakia and beyond to its knees must be underlined. In the last few hours, he thought about analyzing the situation again Marek Hamsik. In fact, the former Napoli footballer tried to unite his population before the start of the European Championship for his national team.
The attack on the Slovak Prime Minister was an incredible act. Robert Fico his life is out of danger, but his condition continues to be serious. In this regard, Marek Hamsik analyzed the situation directly from Slovakia’s retreat, which is preparing to make its debut at the European Championship. Below are the words used by the footballer.
“These are terrible times for Slovakia. I couldn’t even imagine something like this happening. Sports has always brought people together and lifted the mood of the country over the years, therefore I hope people will cheer for us and put their differences aside.”
The debut for the Slovakia is scheduled for tomorrow at 6pm against Belgium. Marek Hamsik’s national team will immediately face the strongest team in the group, which is why an important performance will be necessary. In addition to the former Napoli player, they will also be present on the pitch Stanislav Lobotka and Francesco Calzona, with the latter returning to lead the group after the experience in Naples.
The last few months in Campania have not been easy at all, which is why Calzone will try to reverse course. CT has a team that is up to par, but it will be necessary not to lose points along the way. In fact, even the first commitment will be anything but simple, with Lobotka and his companions who could begin their uphill journey. A possible reaction following the harsh words used by Marek Hamsik cannot be ruled out.
