Czech Republic national team coach Miroslav Koubek resigns following the team’s early elimination at the FIFA World Cup 2026. Multiple outlets report that the Czech side exits after finishing at the bottom of its group, winning no matches in group play. The team gathers one point from three games. The Czech results include losses to South Korea and Mexico and a draw with South Africa, according to reports citing Koubek’s remarks. Several sources also state that the Czech Football Association ends its working relationship with Koubek and that the decision is mutual, with the coach taking responsibility for the team’s poor performance. Channel NewsAsia and other outlets describe the campaign as disappointing, while additional reporting notes that Koubek becomes at least the third coach to resign following World Cup elimination. The Czech Football Association says it has parted ways with Koubek after the group-stage exit, concluding his tenure after the tournament ends for the Czech team.
