On Thursday evening Viktoria played against Atlético Madrid at Estadio Vicente Calderón. Pavel Vrba had to set the lineup without Pavel Horváth who had some injury troubles. He was replaced by Václav Procházka who was moved from defence. As backs there played František Ševinský and Marián Čišovský.

In the first minutes both teams played a careful game. Viktoria got into the first serious chance when a goalkeeper Sergio Asenjo did not catch the ball and Václav Procházka shot. However, he missed the goal and moreover the referee blew his foul. The first shot was made by a midfielder Emre Belözo?lu but he missed the goal, too. In the 18th minute Gabi tried the same and 20 minutes later Cristian Rodríguez as well. Matúš Kozáčik had no reason to participate this action and only watched the ball missing the goal. A minute later Marek Bakoš pushed to head the ball after Radim Řezník´s pass. He was not successful. 6 minutes later Koke targeted the goal as well but Kozáčik did his job and destroyed his shot. The end of the first half-time could be called a show of offensive actions but with no goal.

The second half-time was started by Atlético´s pressure but no opportunity was made to goal. Finally it was Viktoria who had this serious chance. Václav Procházka shot from 25 metres distance and Sergio Asenjo  had to show his talent to damage his shot. Atlético answered in 58th minute by Rodríguez´s shot but the midfielder missed the goal. Michal Ďuriš had the same attempt a few minutes later but Asenjo only watched the ball going out.  A minute later Vladimír Darida made a through pass, which found Marek Hanousek and he hit the bar! This effort was useless anyway because he was in offside.  There were several more chance till the end of the match but the only one, which was the most important came in the 3rd minute of extra time. Atlético had a free kick and Cristiano Rodríguez shot from the middle distance and Matúš Kozáčik had no chance to catch it. Immediately after this action the referee blew the match to end.

Viktoria lost a higly-valued point from a hot Spanish pitch and lost 0:1.
