The earlier Slovak Nike liga encounter between FC ViOn Zlate Moravce-Vrable and Trencin finished in a 1-1 draw on May 21, 2025. This result was a hard-earned point for the home side, who showed great resilience to hold a strong Trencin team. ViOn took a surprise lead in the first half, defending doggedly and taking their chance when it came. Trencin, however, controlled possession for large periods and their pressure eventually told with a second-half equalizer. The match ended with both teams pushing for a winner, but neither could find a decisive breakthrough. The point was a valuable one for ViOn in their context, halting a potential slide, while Trencin will have viewed it as two points dropped in the title race. The ViOn coach expressed pride in his team's defensive organization, while the Trencin manager rued a lack of cutting edge in the final third.
