Čakovec secured a narrow victory over Košárszőlő in the Hungarian Second League on Sunday, closing out the match 2:0 at home. The result keeps both sides rooted to the foot of the table after seven rounds.
And here's the thing — the decisive moment arrived late. Košárszőlő had a goal disallowed in the final stages, and Čakovec struck at 90+4 to seal the points. Yellow cards followed at 86 and 90+3 as tensions rose in the closing minutes.
To be fair, the statistics painted a different picture. The visitors enjoyed 53 per cent possession and registered six shots on target compared to five for the hosts. They also earned more corners and attacks overall, yet couldn't convert their dominance into goals.
By then, the table told the story these two clubs are familiar with. Čakovec sit fifteenth on four points from one win and a draw, while Košárszőlő remain bottom on three points with only a single victory so far. Neither side looks comfortable at this stage of the campaign.
