Vasas reduced the gap to three twice (4:7 and 5:8), but nothing more than that. The hosts closed the game with two goals (Jansik and Vigvari) for a convincing 10:5 victory.

In the 20th minute, Szolnok’s David Jansik scored for 7:5. However, after that, Szeged scored four goals in a row and earned a 9:7 advantage (28th minute). The hosts couldn’t find the net in the last four minutes, but Szolnok did it only once. A minute and a half before the end, Szeghalmi ended Szolnok’s goalless phase, which lasted for 11 minutes. Still, the visitors didn’t equalize.
Since Szolnok lost to Eger in the afternoon session, OSC had a chance to return to 2nd place with a victory over Eger. But, the Budapest-based team left the pool empty-handed.
