Weiss quits as Slovan coach

Vladimir Weiss has quit as the coach of Slovan Bratislava over the team's poor recent performances at home and in Europe. "This was my last match with Slovan, I'm quitting my post," Weiss said on Sunday evening after his side's 1-1 draw with MSK Zilina in a league match. Six-time national champions, Slovan Bratislava were eliminated earlier this month in the second preliminary round of the UEFA Europa League by Hungary's Videoton. Former national team coach Weiss guided Slovakia to the last 16 of the 2010 FIFA World Cup™ on their debut at the finals. The Slovaks beat defending champions Italy 3-2 in the group stage before losing to the Netherlands in the second round. The 47-year-old, who played for the former Czechoslovakia at the FIFA World Cup in Italy in 1990, previously coached Slovak top-flight side Artmedia Petrzalka and Russia's Saturn Ramenskoye. FIFA
