OTP Bank Liga 2023/2024

Victory on the third preparation match: DVSC-TS Galaxy 3-2

After the 1-0 victory against the Romanian Ploiesti and the 3-3 draw against the Polish Cracovia, DVSC played the third preparation match in the Turkish training camp. The opponent of Loki was a South African team, the first division TS Galaxy. The technical staff divided the squad into two parts as our team was going to play one more match against the Slovenian Olimpija Ljubljana on Sunday.

On Saturday, among the starting eleven were the young Benedek Erdélyi, Csaba Hornyák and Máté Tuboly as well. Our team started the match well and in the 6th minute, Márk Szécsi already took the lead. After a left-sided cross, our striker shot the ball into the bottom left corner (1-0) and not long after, he doubled the advantage of the team, converting a penalty in the 12th minute (2-0).

In the 27th minute, TS Galaxy pulled one back by capitalizing on a lost ball (2-1). However, in the 44th minute, after a nice dribble, Alexandros Kyziridis set back the two-goal difference for the break by slotting the ball under the bar (3-1).

 Loki made some substitutes for the second half and the play was less continuous due to the referee’s whistles for a lot of smaller faults. The South Africans missed two clear cut chances, but meanwhile, DVSC also led some dangerous attacks. In the 74th minute, Galaxy scored (3-2) but could not equalize later, so the score stayed the same.

The next match will be against the Slovenian Ljubljana on Monday, starting at 10 am.
