Vasas SC 5:0 Zalaegerszegi TE: NB I Match Result

Match report

Vasas ran riot at home against Zalaegerszeg, winning 5-0 in the third round of the NBI regular season on Saturday. The hosts made it look straightforward from the start, with M. Koszta opening the scoring after just one minute. J. Urblik added a second before the quarter-hour mark, and by then you could see this was going to be a one-sided affair.

What followed was a comfortable display of control. Koszta doubled his tally at the 56-minute mark to make it 3-0, and the visitors were struggling to find any rhythm. R. Horvath then struck at 79 minutes, and Urblik completed his brace with a sixth-minute injury-time goal. And here's the thing — Zalaegerszeg's goalkeeper didn't have to make a single save all afternoon.

The turning point came earlier than most expected. After Z. Garai came on at half-time, the visitors' fortunes took a nosedive. J. Peraza was shown a red card at 52 minutes, leaving them down to ten men for the second half. To be fair, they'd already been uncomfortable before that, but without an extra man they simply couldn't cope.

The statistics tell the full story of a match where Vasas were unquestionably superior. They held 59 per cent possession, registered 10 shots on target against Zalaegerszeg's zero, and created three big chances while their opponents managed none. The visitors managed 21 dribbles but had nothing to show for it, while Vasas completed 478 of their 538 passes.

Vasas move up to third place with 11 points from 7 games, a position that reflects their consistency this season. Zalaegerszeg remain 12th on 6 points, a result that extends their difficult run of form. They've now lost five of seven league matches, and the gap between them and the top half is growing rather than closing.
