Latvia goalkeeper Rihards Matrevics featured in another Czech First League match as Dukla Prague played out a 1-1 draw with FC Zlín.

The 26-year-old keeper played his eighth league match of the season, appearing in all possible fixtures so far. Dukla traveled to face a strong-starting Zlín side, who were fourth in the league table prior to this round.

Dukla, featuring new signing Boubou Diallo who recently moved from Latvian side BFC Daugavpils, took the lead in the 40th minute when Serbian defender Zlatan Sehvic scored, giving the Prague team a 1-0 advantage.

In the second half, Dukla conceded a penalty after a handball in the box. Zlín defender Jakub Cernin converted the spot-kick, leveling the score at 1-1, which remained until the final whistle. Matrevics made four saves over the course of the match.

The draw lifts Dukla Prague to ninth place in the table with seven points. Their next match comes next Sunday at home against Bohemians, where Matrevics will look to continue his strong form between the posts.
