SK Krumvir 2-1 SC Znojmo | Czech Cup – First Round | 26 July 2026

SK Krumvir edged past SC Znojmo 2-1 in the Czech Cup first round, advancing to the next stage with a hard‑working performance on home soil. The match, played under the lights in Krumvíř, saw the home side recover from an early scare to secure victory.

Znojmo strike first

SC Znojmo, a side from the third‑tier MSFL, started brightly and took the lead in the 12th minute. A speculative long‑range effort from Lukáš Horák took a deflection and looped over the Krumvir goalkeeper. The home side, competing in the same division, were momentarily stunned but quickly regained composure. Their equaliser arrived in the 29th minute when a free‑kick from the left was met by Tomáš Kovář, who headed powerfully past the Znojmo keeper.

Second‑half winner

The second half was a tense, closely fought affair. Krumvir pushed hard and were rewarded in the 63rd minute. A well‑worked move down the right saw the ball squared to Petr Novák, who swept a first‑time shot into the far corner. Znojmo pushed for a late equaliser, but Krumvir’s defence, led by captain Ondřej Mazura, held firm to secure the win.

Cup implications

• Krumvir progress to the second round, where they will face a team from the Fortuna Liga (top tier).
• Znojmo exit the cup but remain focused on their MSFL league campaign.
• The draw for the next round is scheduled for later this week.

Czech Cup giant‑killings are always possible, but Krumvir made sure they avoided an upset on this occasion.
