Štetina debuted in the Ukrainian Premier League in a 0–0 draw against Vorskla on 5 March 2011. He played only two matches in the 2010–11 season and failed to make a league appearance in the 2011–12 season. He returned to Slovakia in February 2012, signing a half-year loan deal with Tatran Prešov.[2] Štetina joined Czech club Dukla Prague on a year's loan in July 2012,[3] making his Czech First League debut on 28 July 2012, playing four minutes as a substitute in a 1–1 draw against Sparta Prague.[citation needed]

Later career

[edit]

Štetina transferred to Dukla Prague and signed a three-year contract in July 2013,[4] then AC Sparta Prague in 2017.[5]

After years of playing abroad, Štetina returned to his homeland and signed for Spartak Trnava in June 2022.[6] He scored a scissors goal in a 2023–24 UEFA Europa Conference League third qualifying round against Lech Poznań on 18 August 2023, sending Spartak Trnava to the next round.[7] On 2 July 2024, Štetina signed a new contract with the club which kept him until 2025.[8]

Štetina represented various Slovak youth teams, debuting in the 2008 UEFA European Under-17 Football Championship elite round, making his competitive debut against Serbia on 26 March 2008.[9] He debuted for the Slovak senior squad in an infamous goalless friendly draw against Gibraltar in November 2013.[10] He only returned to the national team match four years later, playing the first half of a friendly match against Ukraine, giving Slovakia the lead in the tenth minute, by a tap-in, which followed Albert Rusnák's free kick, Marek Hamšík's header and a failed save by Andriy Pyatov.[citation needed]

Štetina returned national team in March 2019 after the international retirement of Martin Škrtel, having been called up for a double UEFA Euro 2020 qualifying fixture against Hungary and Wales.[11]
