Athletic career

Daučík came to Spain with his father Ferdinand Daučík in 1949 when he was touring the country as a coach with the Hungaria team, which was made up of political refugees from Eastern European communist countries . His brother-in-law László Kubala also played in the team . He followed his father in the following years at his coaching stations at FC Barcelona , Athletic Bilbao and Atlético Madrid .

In 1959 they parted ways for a short time when their son Rayo Vallecano joined the Segunda División . After only one season, however, the family reunited again when he went to the Primera División at Betis Sevilla , where his father had also found a job after a one-year flying visit to FC Porto . After two years in which he had scored 14 goals in 38 championship games, the son moved to Real Madrid . Here, however, he hardly got past players like Alfredo Di Stéfano , Francisco Gento , Ferenc Puskás and Amancio Amaro , so that he was Spanish champion twice, but could only book ten first division games in the two seasons.

First Daučík moved shortly after the beginning of the 1964/65 season to local rivals Atlético Madrid, later he moved on to the second division Melilla FC during the season . After relegation from the second division in 1966, he first went to RCD Mallorca within the Segunda Division , but followed his father to the National Professional Soccer League , the predecessor of NASL , the following year . There he played at the side of his brother-in-law László Kubala and his son Branko Kubala in the Toronto Falcons . With 20 goals in 17 games, he was crowned top scorer in the league, and with eight assists only Jacobus Prins , who had nine goals, outbid him. After five goals in four games at the start of the NASL 1968 he moved to Chile to CF Universidad de Chile .

During the second division season 1968/69 Daučík returned to Spain, where he again joined Rayo Vallecano. From there he moved to UE Sant Andreu in 1969 , where he met his father again. He followed this in 1970 to Espanyol Barcelona in the first division. After his resignation in 1971, he was no longer used there, whereupon he moved to the second division club Deportivo Xerez . There he later ended his professional career.
