On Saturday evening, Loki stepped onto the pitch in Kisvárda, the second stop of the four-match away tour, supported by 200 fans from Debrecen. Due to injury, Alexandros Kyziridis and Andrija Majdevac were missing this time. The starting eleven was the same as in Zalaegerszeg.  

The match started in a heavy rain and at the beginning, Loki was dominating. However, in the 17^th minute, Meldin Dreskovic had to make a spectacular save to deny Ilievski’s clear-cut chance, shortly after which Christian Manrique shot wide of the goal from distance. In the 25^th minute, Balázs Megyeri saved Navratil’s crashing shot but overall, there were no bigger chances and the tactical play dominated. It did not change until the break, although Ötvös hit the bar from long-range.

At the beginning of the second half, the play stayed the same and one goal could have decided the fate of the match. Loki tried to play more accurately, and in the meantime, Joao Oliveira and Oleksandr Romanchuk came off the bench (later Márk Szécsi and Tamás Batai, who made his debut in the first team, also came on), however, Kisvárda had more possession at that time.

In the 73^rd minute, Donát Bárány’s shot was blocked, after which the home goalkeeper saved the header of Brandon Domingues. The endgame was more about Loki but no goals have been scored, so it stayed a draw. We will continue next week at the home of MTK.

According to the coach

Tamás Feczkó: We played in a tactical and disciplined way, we closed the spaces. Unfortunately, we were not able to finish our actions and score.

Srdjan Blagojevic: There was no high quality on the pitch today, the 0-0 draw is realistic. In the first half, the home team closed the spaces, due to which we suffered. After the break, we had more space but we could not provide more quality. We can play better and we have to play better.
