Slovácko secured a 1-0 win away at Zlín in a regional derby, with Puškáč’s second-half strike deciding the Chance Liga round 14 fixture. The visitors made the most of a numerical advantage that had been created by a red card shown to the home side.
Red card changes the match
The game was shaped early on, in the 22nd minute, when home centre-back Mukuba was sent off after a review by the video assistant referee. From then on, Zlín had to defend with a man fewer for a long spell.
Puškáč makes the difference
Slovácko used that extended advantage well and broke the deadlock in the 61st minute, when the ball was turned into the net by Puškáč. That goal proved enough for the visitors to take all three points.
Zlín still waiting for a win
The defeat means Zlín are still searching for their first victory of the league season, a worrying sign for a side that will now need to find a response quickly.
