Nitra secured a 0:2 victory over Dolne-Krskany in the Cup round of 128 on 19 August 2026, the fixture played at 15:00. No goalscorers were recorded in the available data, and the match concluded with the visitors taking all three points. Dolne-Krskany had been looking for a cup run to extend their season, but the away side proved too solid on the day.
The hosts arrived with mixed recent results. A 1:1 draw with Malženice on 27 August 2025 offered the closest thing to momentum, but they also carried a 0:2 defeat to Beluša and a goalless stalemate against Nitra themselves on 27 July 2024. Their form against higher opposition had not been convincing.
Nitra, by contrast, were on a better run. They beat Trenčín II 3:0 on 31 July 2026 and followed up with a 2:1 win over Podkonice on 24 July. Those two results suggested a side finding its rhythm, even if a 2:3 loss to Podbrezová in November 2025 had shown they could still leak goals.
The clean-sheet run came to an end for Dolne-Krskany, but the result at least kept them in touch with their cup ambitions. Nitra's away form has been solid, and this performance added to that reputation. The two-goal margin was enough to separate them when it mattered.
And here's the thing — Dolne-Krskany had met Nitra before and held them to a 0:0 draw, so the visitors were not invincible. By then, however, the hosts had not managed to replicate that defensive solidity. Nitra took their chances and moved on.
