Home side take control early

Tuchlovice made their intentions clear in the opening stages, pressing high and forcing Cesky Brod onto the back foot.

A second goal followed shortly after as Tuchlovice exploited space behind the Cesky Brod defence, putting them firmly in control before the interval.

SK Cesky Brod pulled one back early in the second half, briefly giving themselves hope of a comeback. A well-worked breakaway reduced the deficit and suddenly the away side began to grow in confidence.

• Clinical finishing: Tuchlovice converted their clearest chances with confidence and efficiency.
• Midfield dominance: The home side controlled the tempo and consistently won the second ball in key areas.

Overall assessment
