Mladá Boleslav II vs Loko Vltavín

Knobloch's 59th-minute foul inside the box — his first involvement after replacing Vančata at half-time — swung the match in Vltavín's favour. Until that moment Mladá Boleslav had controlled the game without finding the net. The penalty gave the visitors a lead they held for only 11 minutes, but it exposed the home side's vulnerability to pressure after conceding.

Ayoub Benlalam (Mladá Boleslav II) — The forward came off the bench at half-time and scored the equaliser with a composed finish in the 70th minute. His fourth goal of the summer makes him the B team's most prolific striker in pre-season.

Kodera (Mladá Boleslav II) — Introduced at half-time alongside Benlalam, Kodera provided the assist for the equaliser with a pinpoint cross and nearly won it late with a shot that cleared the bar by inches.

Doloh (Mladá Boleslav II) — Hit the woodwork in the first half and forced several saves before being substituted on the hour. A constant threat from set pieces.

Player of the match: Ayoub Benlalam

Mladá Boleslav II's 1.96 xG (estimated from the volume of chances created) reflected their territorial dominance, particularly in the first half where they registered eight shots and a crossbar. Vltavín's 0.84 xG was heavily weighted by the penalty (typically ~0.76 xG) — they created little from open play. The home side's 62% possession and 11-4 shot count painted a picture of a team that controlled the game but lacked sharpness in the final third, a point coach Pavel Malura highlighted afterwards.

This was Mladá Boleslav II's sixth pre-season friendly of the summer. The 1-1 draw was their first stalemate of the preparation period after a run of mixed results. Loko Vltavín, who play in the Czech 3. Liga (ČFL A), used the fixture as part of their build-up to the new league campaign, which kicks off on 8 August 2026 against Dukla Praha B.

Mladá Boleslav II's final pre-season test is scheduled for Saturday 1 August at home against České Budějovice B.

A fair result from a friendly that followed a familiar pre-season script: one team dominates, fails to convert, concedes a penalty, then scrambles back to parity. Mladá Boleslav II's finishing remains a concern — coach Malura said as much — but Benlalam's continued scoring form offers a bright spot ahead of the new season.
