When he had successfully led the Czechoslovak national team in personal union with Václav Ježek through the European Championship qualification in 1976 against England, Portugal and Cyprus and prevailed in the quarterfinals after two games against the Soviet Union, the CSSR took part in the European Championship tournament in Yugoslavia. In the semi-final, the combination of Bratislava and Prague prevailed with 3-1 goals after extra time against the Netherlands and thus moved into the final. On June 20, the team around the outstanding goalkeepers Ivo Viktor and Libero Anton Ondruš decided the match in Belgrade against the defending champion Germany with 5:3 goals after penalty shooting for themselves.

There he took second place behind Germany with his selection in group one and prevailed in the game for third place with 9:8 goals in penalty shooting against Italy.

The Czechoslovak national team also qualified for the 1982 World Cup in Spain. There, however, she was already eliminated in the 1st final round with two draws and one defeat from the tournament.
