František Hons was left in no man's land by his defense there! Tomáš Balvín sent away a hard shot on goal in the 47th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance.

The referee saw this and, surprisingly, showed Jaromír Skřivánek the red card, dismissing him from the pitch. The coaching staff of ⚽Aston Punat⚽ protested bitterly, but the referee would have none of it, and Jaromír Skřivánek had no choice but to slowly walk off the pitch.

Josef Hladil kicked well hit freekick during the 64th minute of the match. 68 minutes into the match, Sporting Mambo's goal looked a bit too open when Josef Hladil came free, but Waut Goons reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line.
