František Plach (born 8 March 1992) is a Slovak footballer who plays for Piast Gliwice as a goalkeeper.
Career[]
FK Senica[]
Plach made his professional debut for FK Senica against MFK Skalica on 2 April 2016.[1]
Piast Gliwice[]
Plach moved from Senica to Piast Gliwice on 10 January 2018.[2] In April 2018, Plach spoke to Slovak regional tabloid My about his career in Gliwice. While he did not start in a single competitive game in the spring half of the 2017–18 season, he mentioned he was glad for the transfer and was not worried that he would follow the tracks of Dobrivoj Rusov who spent 2 years there before returning to Slovak top-division team Spartak Trnava.[3]
The 2018–19 season, however, took a major twist for Plach and Piast. While Piast battled to avoid relegation in the previous season, the side championed the Polish league in this edition and Plach was the preferred goalkeeper for the majority of the season, maintaining 12 clean sheets in 25 league matches. After the season, that saw Plach win his first senior trophy, he was nominated to be Ekstaklasa's goalkeeper of the season by the experts at Sportowefakty web-portal, thanks to his 81% save rate and the lowest number of conceded goals (21). He was nominated along with his fellow-Slovak goalkeeper Dušan Kuciak from Lechia Gdańsk, who finished third, and Latvian Pāvels Šteinbors.[4]
