​Viktoria beat Chinese Yanbian Funde by the closest possible result. The only goal was scored on 49 minutes by Janža whose centre pass was rebounded by the defender into the gate.

Since the beginning of the match Viktoria presented themselves to be a better team. They seemed more self-confident and more footballish, the first chance of the match was created by Yanbian when on 15 minutes the forward overkicked the empty gate.

Tomáš Poznar made two promising chances, at first he shot directly on goal but the goalkeeper was ready and then he headed the ball above the gate. Michal Hlavatý had an effort on goal moments later but but he missed the target as well as Marek Bakoš after that. Jakub Hromada was also close to scoring but his attempt was saved by the goalkeeper.

Roman Pivarník completely changed the line-up for the 2nd half again so the new Viktoria´s reinforcement Andreas Ivanschitz could be introduced. Plzeň were better on the pitch again. On 49 minutes Viktoria went in lead – Eric Janža passed the ball in the penalty area and one of the defenders rebounded it into the gate.

Viktorians controlled the game and they focused on the ball possession. On 64 minutes Ivanschitz sent a nice attempt near the upright, nevertheless, the goalkeeper saved it.

Viktoria beat Chinese Yanbian 1-0!
