Veszprém started their NB I campaign with a 35:25 victory over Győr in the opening fixture of the 2026-27 season. The Hungarian top flight began on Wednesday evening, and the hosts made no mistakes from the first whistle. By then, the pattern was clear — Veszprém controlled territory and tempo throughout.
There were no dramatic swings or comebacks to report. The home side took their time, worked the channels methodically, and never let Győr find rhythm. The visitors were left flat-footed more often than not, particularly in transition where Veszprém threw everything at them.
These two clubs have history. Győr lost 44:25 to Veszprém earlier this month and 26:44 back in May, so familiarity did little to help them here. The scoreline felt inevitable by the second half — Győr were out of sight by then, and there was nothing to salvage.
Both teams sit at the bottom of the standings with zero games, zero wins, and zero points. The table says nothing yet, but the result tells its own story. Veszprém took all three points on offer, while Győr began their season with a heavy defeat.
What matters now is whether the visitors can recover. They'll need to work the channels better and stop giving up the ball and hitting them on the break. One mistake ends it when you're playing a side that capitalises on everything.
