Róbert Rák (born 15 January 1978 in Rimavská Sobota) is a retired Slovak professional footballer who played as a striker for MFK Zemplín Michalovce and FC Nitra. He was top goalscorer of the Corgoň Liga twice. First at the 2005–06 season, scoring 21 goals and second time at the 2009–10 season, scoring 18 goals.

Personal life[]

Rák comes from the Hungarian minority in Slovakia.[1] His sister, named Viktória, is a popular actress in Slovakia, who played in the Hungarian language Thalia Theatre in Košice.[2]

Match fixing[]

Rák was involved in a match fixing scandal in Slovak football that came to light in September 2013. Allegedly, Rák together with six other football players, including the former Slovak international Ivan Hodúr, were supposed to have participated in fixing games of FK DAC 1904 Dunajská Streda.[3] Rák was eventually given a 15-year suspension by the Disciplinary Committee of the Slovak FA, which was later extended worldwide by the FIFA Disciplinary Committee.[4]
