FK Dukla Praha's final match of the Czech top-flight season ended with three own goals and a 3-0 loss to FC Baník Ostrava on Saturday, a result that sent Dukla down and kept Baník alive through the relegation playoff. Match data from FotMob, Global Sports Archive and iDNES all listed the goals as own goals in a relegation-group game at Stadion Juliska in Prague. The goals were credited to Marios Pourzitidis in the 36th minute, Mouhamed Tidjane Traore in the 57th and Lukáš Penxa in the 74th. The result matched the clip that circulated on X on Saturday through the TrollFootball account, which showed the sequence of own goals from the game. ### Were all three goals officially counted as own goals? (fotmob.com) FotMob's event log for the May 23 match listed all three scoring plays as own goals by Dukla players. Global Sports Archive's timeline matched two of those names directly and showed the 0-3 final score from the same fixture. iDNES reported after the match that "all three goals were own goals" in Dukla's defeat. (fotmob.com) The official sequence, based on those match logs, was Pourzitidis at 36 minutes, Traore at 57 and Penxa at 74. The game was played in the Chance Liga relegation group. ### Where and when did this happen? Global Sports Archive listed the match as taking place on May 23, 2026, at 14:00 local time at Stadion Juliska in Prague. (fotmob.com) The same listing gave the attendance as 7,932 and named Karel Rouček as the referee. FotMob also listed the fixture on May 23 and showed Dukla Praha 0, Baník Ostrava 3 at full time. (fotmob.com) Live Soccer TV separately identified the same match date and fixture pairing in the Czech first division. ### What did the result do to the relegation battle? iDNES reported on May 23 that Dukla were relegated after the loss and that Baník "kept hope of survival" before a playoff. (globalsportsarchive.com) Its Baník team page later identified Táborsko as Baník's opponent in the promotion-relegation playoff. Global Sports Archive's post-match table showed Baník finishing fifth in the relegation round on 29 points and Dukla sixth on 26 points. (fotmob.com) Baltic Football News, citing the Czech league site, said the clubs had entered the match level on points, making it a direct fight to avoid the bottom place. (idnes.cz) ### Why did the clip spread online? The X clip gained traction because the match produced three separate own goals by one team in a decisive relegation game. The social-media framing that Baník were "doomed" by the result was not supported by the verified post-match reporting; iDNES and other match records showed Baník avoided direct relegation and moved into the playoff instead. (globalsportsarchive.com) On the field, Baník did not have a credited scorer from open play in the official event logs. The three goals all went into the record as Dukla own goals. ### What happens next for the two clubs? Baník Ostrava's next step is a playoff against Táborsko for a place in the top division, according to iDNES. Dukla Praha finished in the relegation spot after the May 23 defeat.
