Chomutov could not solve the Litoměřice defense through the first two periods and trailed 0-1 at the second intermission. After Litoměřice doubled the lead early in the third, the hosts finally answered at 59:00, but the comeback stalled there as the 1-2 scoreline held through regulation.
The game was decided in the middle period, where Litoměřice generated the only goal of the first 40 minutes and controlled the pace. Chomutov's late strike was their lone breakthrough, and the two-goal cushion proved enough for the away side to secure the friendly victory.
