The guests boarded without Captain Jeřábek, who is playing for eight yellow cards, and quickly showed why they have the worst defense in the league. In the 12th minute, Janetzky’s shot was saved by a crossbar, but immediately after a corner kick, Vukadinovič fired the ball from the penalty area exactly to the post. It was the first league goal for the Serbian player after he returned to Zlín in January after more than four years.
–
In the next three minutes, Hloušek slipped through the rigid defense, returned the ball to Janetzky, who increased it to 2-0 with the helpless watch of the Pardubice players. At another great chance for Dramý, the guests were held back by a 20-year-old goalkeeper Markovič, who started the season as the goalkeeper’s three.

The guests replied in the 41st minute, when Cadu confirmed that he was one of the best league recorders. Despite the mistaken Hloušek, he got the ball to Rezek and he took advantage of the offer in cold blood. For the Brazilian midfielder, it was the ninth goal assist of the year.
–
The people of Pardubice sensed a chance and entered the second half much more actively. The home defense was mainly occupied by Cadu, whose centers caused the Rakovan goalkeeper a lot of worries. However, his teammates did not help him much and instead of a tie came other goals scored.
–
In the 74th minute, Janetzký scored a defense and Vukadinovič did not hesitate again. The goalkeeper Markovič then missed the chances of Hloušek and Vraštil, but he was helpless against the long-range shot of the Frenchman Dramy exactly under the crossbar.
–
Zlín scored four goals in the highest competition for the first time since August 2018, when it won 4-0 in Slovakia. In the fifth league match in a row, Pardubice met the unflattering standard of at least three goals scored.
