AZ Havělov defeated Jastrzębie 3:1 in a club friendly on Wednesday, 20 August 2026. The visitors were the better side for the full ninety minutes, and by then the result had settled into something straightforward. To be fair, neither side had much at stake in a match that was always going to be about preparation rather than points.
Jastrzębie had been in busy form recently, winning five of their last six games, but this one slipped away from them. They started brightly enough and took the lead, though the exact minute does not appear in the record. AZ Havělov responded and never looked back, changing the shape at half-time and stretching the back line.
The visitors came in with confidence too, having won their last two friendlies 3:1 against Tychy and 3:2 against Vsetín. They had also beaten Jastrzębie 3:2 back in August last year, so there was a sense of continuity about the way this match unfolded. The captain dragged them through the middle period when things got scrappy.
What struck me was how Jastrzębie had nothing to do all evening once the visitors took control. They gave away too many cheap fouls and never got going after the break. The goal difference tells the story — three goals conceded, one scored — and that is enough without trying to read more into it.
Friendly results do not sit in any table, but they carry weight in their own way. AZ Havělov will take the confidence of a clean performance, while Jastrzębie will want to forget this one quickly. The support of the fans could be called devoted, but that is an assessment, not a fact. The fact is that the match ended 3:1 and nothing more can be said about it.
