DVSC played at the home of the third-division Veszprém on Saturday in order to secure a spot among the best 32 in the MOL Hungarian Cup. Among the starting XI, there were some players who have had less playing opportunity so far.

At the very beginning of the match, Loki took the initiative, supported by a great number of Debrecen fans. The first bigger chance came in the 7th minute, when the goalkeeper of Veszprém performed a feat in order to deny Soma Szuhodovszki’s header. In the 11th minute, Álex Bermejo shot the ball over the goal from 12 meters, then in the 22nd minute, Donát Bárány’s header missed the target.

In the second part of the 1st half, our team took the lead. After a great cross from Botond Vajda in the 35th minute, György Komáromi shot the ball into the left side of the goal from 11 meters, scoring his first goal in DVSC (0-1).

As expected, Loki dominated in the 2nd half as well. In the 49th minute, Soma Szuhodovszki shot just wide off the goal from 15 meters. Our midfielder has almost scored from a free-kick as well, but the home goalkeeper made a great save.

At the beginning of the last 30 minutes, DVSC was awarded a penalty due to a handball. In the 63rd minute, Donát Bárány converted the penalty with a cool head (0-2). Thus, advancement to the next round has been decided. In the remaining time, the substitutions came on (both Victor Camarasa and Dénes Szakál debuted in an official match). Even though there were more chances, the score remained unchanged. Thus, Loki confidently progressed to the next round. The draw will be on Sunday, starting from 6.45 pm.

Loki will play the next match against Kisvárda in the league.

Welcome to Loki!

Due to the World Cup qualifiers, the league is on a break, so we could have a look at some statistics. One such figure is the average attendance, which is one of the most important indicators for a club. After six rounds in the 2025/26 season of Fizz Liga, DVSC’s matches drawn the largest crowds, with an average of 9,851 spectators. Even though two our of three home matches were major derbies (against Nyíregyháza and FTC), this number is still remarkable. Behind Loki, Ferencváros ranks second, while Újpest is the third on the list. Thank you for your support! Hajrá, Loki!

DVSC, which started the championship well and was on the podium after 5 rounds, hosted the title defender Ferencváros in front of full stands on Sunday evening. Julien Dacosta, Adrian Guerrero and Erik Kusnyir were not in the squad. However, Joshua Mejias was among the starting XI.

Two of our top players have recently reached a great milestone. Our excellent defender, Ádám Lang made his 100^th appearance in the first division, while our captain, Balázs Dzsudzsák has worn the DVSC jersey already during 200 matches. Before the match, Ádám Lang was greeted by Balázs Makray, director of institutional and strategic relations, while Balázs Dzsudzsák by president Ike Thierry Zaengel.

At the beginning of the match, both teams showed a tactical play. In the 8^th minute, Szalai tried from distance, but the ball went over the goal. Not long after, Josua Mejias made a great save right in front of the goal. Ferencváros dominated and in the 13^th minute, Kanichowsky hit the bar, then Ádám Varga made a brilliant save to deny Pesic’s header. In the 14^th minute, he could not help as Barnabás Varga headed the ball into the right side of the goal after a corner (0-1).

Loki had a tough challenge, playing against a team, which competes in the Europa League. In the 24^th minute, it looked like the guest team have doubled their advantage with Cadu’s close-range shot, but the goal was disallowed for offside. As halftime approached, the game became more balanced at times. In the 39^th minute, Dibusz saved Donát Bárány’s shot. Still, Ferencváros managed to score again before the break. In the 40^th minute, after a smoothly executed move, Barnabás Varga slotted the ball home from 10 meters (0-2).

Botond Vajda came on for the 2^nd half and DVSC tried to get closer to their opponent. In the 50^th minute, Dominik Kocsis made a run on the left side, crossed the ball into the centre and Bárány Donát shot the ball into the far corner from 11 meters. However, the VAR disallowed the goal for offside. In the 54^th minute, Tamás Szűcs shot wide off the goal and Loki’s performance was much better.

Both teams had some chances in the next minutes, but the goalkeepers had less to do at these times. Dejan Djokic came off the bench for the last 20 minutes as well as Dorde Gordic (later Flórián Cibla came on and Pape Sissoko, who made his debut). In the 73^rd minute, Tamás Szűcs almost scored, but Dibusz performed a huge save.

In the final minutes, Ferencváros scored again as Gruber shot the ball into the bottom left corner from 20 meters (0-3). FTC won and DVSC did not earn any points this time. Due to the World Cup qualifiers, there will be an international break in the league. The next match of Loki will be on September 13 against Veszprém in the Hungarian Cup.

According to the coach

Sergio Navarro: I am really sorry for this defeat as the players have worked hard recently. Ferencváros was better in the 1^st half, but after the break, we could show our own play and had chances too.

Robbie Keane: We played very well in the 1^st half and dominated. After the break, I was not totally satisfied, but our main goal was to win and we did that.

A difficult task was ahead of DVSC on Friday evening, playing at the home of the leader of the table, Puskás Akadémia, in the 5th round. Julien Dacosta, Adrian Guerrero and Erik Kusnyir were out of the squad, but Ádám Lang was back in the starting XI. Vyacheslav Kulbachuk was also in the starting line-up.

At the very beginning of the match, DVSC had more possession and led several dangerous attacks. In the 6th minute, Szappanos made a brilliant save to deny Dominik Kocsis’ shot from 13 meters. DVSC played well, our players showed good performance and the teamwork was also great, which confused the home team at times.

In the next minutes, Loki controlled the match, but in the 24th minute, Ádám Varga also had to perform a save to deny Lukács’ shot. In the second part of the 1st half, the home team increased their possession of the ball. In the 30th minute, Varga denied Markgráf’s cross as well. In the 45th minute, DVSC took the lead, which was well-deserved. Dominik Kocsis ran past his defender on the left, he crossed the ball to the centre and the arriving Balázs Dzsudzsák shot it beautifully into the net from 14 meters (0-1).

The 2nd half began with tough duels and Loki still dominated. For some time, no big chances arouse, but in the 60th minute, Ádám Varga denied Nissila’s powerful shot. In the 62nd minute, Puskás Akadémia equalized. Lukács shot the ball under the bar from 15 meters (1-1).

The last 30 minutes were very exciting. Álex Bermejo came off the bench, and later, György Komáromi also came on as a substitution. Both teams could have decided the match, but it was Loki that did so. In the 86th minute, after Tamás Szűcs’ 19-meter shot took a deflection, the ball ended up in the left side of the net (1-2). What’s more, at the beginning of extra time, following a free-kick from Balázs Dzsudzsák, Vyacheslav Kulbachuk sealed the victory with a confident header from 11 meters (1-3). DVSC earned a deserved and great victory!

The next match will be next Sunday, on August 31, against FTC in Debrecen.

According to the coach

Zsolt Hornyák: Congratulations to Debrecen. When the score was 1-1, I felt that we could have won, but in the final minutes, DVSC scored. We lost a lot of duels, which I did not like, as well as using our chances. We missed Duarte a lot.
