In the 24th minute, Igoh Ogbu was carried off the field on a stretcher after colliding head-on with Kopic and Markovic in the penalty area, and David Zima took his place. Antonín Kinský made a great save against Jirka's long-range attempt at his right post, while Chorý's header after Diouf's cross went into Tvrdoň's arms. Havel couldn't direct his header between the three posts, two promising positions of Mojmir Chytil didn't end in the goal either. In the 40th minute Jirka shot over the crossbar from a good position, five minutes later Tvrdoň brought down Chytil in the penalty area, referee Černý reviewed the situation and ordered a penalty kick. Tomáš Chorý took the penalty and with an excellent finish to the left post he smashed the net, the Pilsen goalkeeper stayed in the middle - 2:0. But that was not all of the first half... After a corner kick by Zafeiris, Lukáš Provod slammed the ball into the net and, with the help of Jemelka's touch, added a third goal for Slavia - 3:0. Petr Ševčík replaced the injured Oscar in the second half, Plzeň substituted goalkeepers, Jedlička replaced Tvrdoň in goal, who immediately saved the shot from Chorý, after Bořil sent him on a breakaway. A dangerous attempt by Prince Adu was saved by Bořil and Zima, the score remained unchanged. In the 66th minute, Chytil finished the game and Ondřej Lingr headed to the pitch. Holeš's shot was scraped out by Jedlička with the tips of his gloves for a corner, and the national team's full back then stamped the post with his header. Kalvach's long-range shot was caught by Kinský, Simion Michez ran out to make his debut in the red-and-white jersey in the 77th minute, Provod had his work cut out for him. At the same time, Chorý finished the game, replaced by Conrad Wallem. Zima's header was dangerous, missing by centimetres, as was Dweh's on the other side of the pitch.
