Dynamo Pardubice crushed Tyki 6:0 in the opening fixture of the Continental Cup of Champions on 3rd September 2026, setting an aggressive tone for the tournament before either side had accumulated a single point.
Both teams entered the contest at zero games, zero wins and zero points — the table was essentially a blank slate. To be fair, that makes this result more about statement than standing, and Pardubice certainly made theirs felt.
The hosts arrived in decent form, having edged Žilina 3:2 in early August and followed that with a narrow 2:1 win over Trinec at the end of April. By then they had already shown they could score freely, and their five-goal demolition of Trinec on 28th April suggested they were building momentum.
Tyki's recent record told a different story. They had lost 3:0 away to Nitra, dropped a thriller 5:4 against Spisska Nova Ves, and lost 2:1 to Presov. That run of results — losses to teams they should have beaten — meant Pardubice sensed blood, and they took it.
A six-goal margin in a tournament opener tells you everything about the gulf between these sides on this occasion. The standings will shift once there are more games, but right now Pardubice sit top of nothing with a statement scoreline, and Tyki have work to do.
