One point against league newcomers

Slavia made only one change into the starting XI in compare to the last league game against Příbram. Peter Olayinka returned to the starting line-up after a long time, replacing Ibrahim Traoré. Lukáš Provod then moved into the middle next to Nicolae Stanciu.

Pardubice got into the first chance in their “exile” on Bohemians stadium in Prague, but Cadu fired wide face-to-face to Kolář. In 10th minute Tecl could open the score in favour of Slavia but sent the ball over the crossbar rebounding Bořil’s blocked shot.

In 38th minute Pardubice took lead when Hovorka lost the ball and Emil Tischler fired the ball through Kolář. It was the first conceded goal in this season for Slavia.

Manager Trpišovský replaced Olayinka with Traoré and Tecl with Musa for the second half and it was the Croatian striker who drew level in 50th minute. After Ševčík’s corner he headed the ball into the Boháč’s net.

Few minutes later Pardubice could regain the lead, but Bořil managed to block the deflected ball on the goal line. On the other side Vladimír Coufal got into what was probably the biggest chance of the second half but headed the ball wide following good cross by Musa after 80 minutes.

Slavia were better in the final minutes, but Pardubice managed to block all efforts of the red and whites. Slavia thus lost 2 points away to Pardubice, the red-whites drew 1-1 and have 7 points after 3 game of 2020/21 Fortuna liga.
