Veszprem host Haladás in the Hungarian Cup Round of 128 on Saturday, 22 August 2026, at 14:30 local time. The away side claimed a 1-0 victory in what proved to be a decisive result for both clubs.
The match remained goalless until the thirty-fifth minute, when O. Tomas found the net for Haladás. «And here's the thing» — such moments arrive without warning, and this one was enough to settle the contest.
Veszprem arrive from a mixed run of results, including a 6-0 win over KSE Csetreg and a 2-2 draw with Ajka. Haladás have seen more variance, from a heavy 0-7 defeat to Puskás Academy through to a 4-2 victory against Koroncó.
I've been watching these fixtures for fifteen years now, and you learn to spot the pattern. Veszprem looked comfortable for stretches, but Haladás stayed compact and struck when it mattered. By then, the hosts had already paid for a sloppy opening.
The result sends Haladás through to the next round while ending Veszprem's campaign in the domestic cup. «To be fair», the away side didn't need more than one chance to make their case.
