The team from Hradec Králové rose to fourth place in the last national championship. They started the new campaign with a 2-1 win over Pardubice. Then they drew with Bohemians 1905. They managed to claim all three points again against Baník Ostrava. At the same time, in qualification, they defeated Tromsø twice—1-0 in Norway and 3-1 at home.
In the Czech Republic, everything was heading for a goalless draw. But the class of the visitors made the difference. Even after being reduced to ten men, they managed to score the only goal in the 80th minute.
