At the very beginning of the match, it was mainly Győr trying to create chances, but they were unable to pose any serious threat in front of the goal of Debrecen. However, Loki could do so at the other side: in the 13rd minute, Petrás made a brilliant save to deny Botond Vajda’s shot from 13 meters.

Soma Szuhodovszki came off the bench for the last 30 minutes (later Botond Vajda, György Komáromi and Márk Szécsi also came on) and the fight intensified. DVSC had more attempts during the endgame, but could not score the winning goal. However, it is a valuable point, earned in Diósgyőr.

Neither team was able to gain the upper hand, so the last half an hour promised to be very exciting.
The excitements did come: Donát Bárány was fouled in a clear scoring chance that would have meant a red card, but the referee signaled an offside. The VAR confirmed the decision, though it did not seem like that. Fran Manzanara and Botond Vajda came on (later joined by György Komáromi), while DVSC tried to mobilize its remaining reserves of energy. In the final minutes, the most dangerous situations arouse in front of the goal of Kisvárda. In the 75th minute, Dominik Kocsis, hit the left post from 15 meters at the end a great action.
Then, the Loki goal came in the 81st minute! Adrian Guerrero made a great cross from the left and Donát Bárány made a diving header from close-range into the goal of Popovics (0-1).

The next match will be on Saturday against Diósgyőr.
According to the coach
Máté Gerliczki: It was a fairly even match. I feel that in the second half we took the initiative, but we weren’t the ones that scored. There can be no complaints about the players.
