Coaching career

As the coach of Artmedia Bratislava Weiss won the Slovak Corgoň Liga and reached the group stage in the 2005–06 season of UEFA Champions League. He coached FC Saturn Moscow Oblast from February 2006 to June 2007. He brought several Slovak footballers from his former club. In June 2007 he returned to FC Artmedia Bratislava like an "old-new coach".

In 2008, he became the head coach of the Slovakia national team.[5] On 14 October 2009, he led the team to the historic success of Slovakia's first-ever qualification for a major tournament, with Slovakia winning the qualifying group thanks to beating Poland 1–0 in an away match in the final qualifying game. On 24 June 2010, he led his Slovakia side to the World Cup last 16 after a 3–2 win over Italy. In late January 2012, he parted ways with Slovakia on his own accord following the team's failure to qualify for the Euro 2012 tournament.[6] Weiss then worked in Kazakhstan, in the football club of Almaty, FC Kairat, which is very famous throughout the CIS. He left Kairat at the end of November 2015.[7] Weiss took over as manager of the Georgia national team in March 2016.

gollark: To rethingy: I think that, regardless of whose body or creation or whatever it is, the person who is actually carrying it and bears the associated issues of having it glued to their circulatory system and such should get to decide whether to keep doing that.
gollark: A fetus contains some of your genes but ~all of its materials come from what the mother eats/processes, so that isn't relevant either.
gollark: I'll rephrase a bit or something.
gollark: You were saying that it was "half another person's body" earlier.
gollark: As much as applying copyright laws to babies might be fun, aaaaa.
