The Cup round of 128 produced a one-sided affair as Spišská Nová Ves dispatched Géča 4-0 on Wednesday evening. The visitors made no mistake against a home side that struggled to find any rhythm from the opening whistle. Three goals from F. Bango and one from M. Pilat settled the contest well before the hour mark.
The visitors struck early, with Bango finding the net in the seventh minute. Géča tried to respond but could not muster much pressure, and Pilat doubled the advantage just before the break. By then, the visitors had already shifted into a comfortable groove, and the hosts were left chasing shadows.
Bango completed his brace in the 44th minute, giving Spišská Nová Ves a commanding lead. The second half offered little drama, though Bango added a third in the 66th to seal the result. The hosts looked shell-shocked, and the visitors kept a clean sheet throughout.
The statistics tell the same story. Spišská Nová Ves held 60 per cent possession and registered nine shots on target compared to Géča's single effort. The visitors launched 111 attacks while the hosts managed 77, but it was efficiency that separated the sides. Things came to a head quickly, and Géča never recovered.
This victory lifts the visitors into the next round while Géča's recent form offers little comfort. They have lost four of their last five matches, including heavy defeats to Lokomotíva Košice and Slavia TU Košice. The clean-sheet run came to an end for Géča, and the gap in quality was evident.
