Vlašim Survive Vysoké Mýto Scare in Six-Goal Czech Cup Tie

FC Sellier & Bellot Vlašim advanced in the Czech Cup after a hard-fought 4-2 victory away at SK Vysoké Mýto on 12 August 2026. The professional visitors ultimately progressed with a two-goal cushion, but the lower-league hosts made them work for it in an entertaining cup affair that produced six goals and plenty of drama.

Vlašim started brightly and looked in complete control when they opened the scoring early in the first half. Their superior technical quality showed in the way they moved the ball quickly through midfield, and they deservedly doubled their lead before the interval. However, Vysoké Mýto refused to fold and pulled a goal back shortly after the restart, suddenly injecting real intensity into the contest as the home supporters raised the noise inside the stadium.

A Cup Tie That Refused to Settle

Instead of shutting down the match, the Vlašim response was immediate. They restored their two-goal advantage with a well-taken third, only for Vysoké Mýto to score again and keep the tie alive heading into the final stages. The home side pushed forward in search of an equaliser, leaving gaps at the back, and Vlašim capitalised on the open pitch to add a fourth goal and seal the result in the closing minutes.

For Vysoké Mýto, the defeat marks the end of their cup journey, but their spirited performance will give them confidence for league action. Vlašim, meanwhile, advance to the next round and will be pleased with their attacking output, even if the defensive display offered some lessons for the matches ahead.
