The Red & Whites started with only 2 changes in the starting line-up: Hušbauer replaced Ševčík in the midfield and Frydrych started instead of injured Hovorka as a centre-back.

The away team didn’t manage to break the deadlock till 70th minute when after a good work by Provod Stanciu’s low shot was blocked by Hrubý and Tomáš Souček rebounded the ball with the help of left post. 1-0.

After an opening goal Slavia created several chances and added second on 73rd minute. Nico Stanciu sent a low cross from right wing, Peter Olayinka was first on ball on the near post and sent the ball along Hrubý into the net. 2-0.
