Szentlőrinc secured a narrow 2-1 victory over BVSZ in Round 8 of the NB II Regular Season, played on Sunday 20 September 2026. The home side took the lead through P. Kiss-Szeman's 28th-minute strike, only for BVSZ to respond quickly after their man was sent off. A. Rac's late 89th-minute goal proved decisive, lifting Szentlőrinc to seven points from six games.
The opening goal came from Kiss-Szeman, who found the net in the 28th minute. BVSZ had been disciplining themselves well enough — M. Szolgai picked up two yellows before his dismissal — but the momentum shifted when the referee showed him straight red in the 52nd minute. By then the visitors had already seen B. Rideg cautioned in the fifth minute.
And here's the thing about the red card — BVSZ didn't fold immediately. A. Denes pulled one back in the 54th, just two minutes after Szolgai's sending-off, and the visitors kept pushing forward. Szentlőrinc made changes to shore up their defence, bringing on B. Kun in the 64th and A. Kiraly shortly after. The home side had already seen M. Katona substituted in the 53rd.
BVSZ continued to dominate possession and territory despite the numerical disadvantage. Three substitutions came together in the 70th minute — R. Palfalvi, B. Rideg and A. Samson — but the visitors couldn't find an equaliser. Szentlőrinc weathered the storm and added a second when A. Rac struck in the 89th minute. The match produced four additional yellow cards for the hosts after the break.
The statistics tell a familiar story. BVSZ registered 121 attacks compared to 77, held 53 per cent of possession and won 11 corners to one. Yet Szentlőrinc were more clinical — four shots on target yielded two goals, while the visitors managed only three on target for one response. Both sides had similar numbers of offsides calls, with two for the hosts and three for the visitors.
The result keeps Szentlőrinc in 11th place with seven points, while BVSZ remain 14th on four. The home side's recent form includes a 1-0 victory over Gyulai Termál on 13 September, though they had lost their previous three outings. BVSZ's latest outing was a 2-2 draw against Ajka, but they have not won since their 2-0 victory over Diósgyőri VTK in August.
