Ferencvaros halts Szolnok’s unbeaten run

April 29, 2021

European champion Ferencvaros defeated Szolnok in the big derby, which closed the 29th round of the Hungarian League.

Ferencvaros recorded a convincing 11:7 victory. It is Szolnok’s first defeat in the league this season. Moreover, until today, Szolnok didn’t suffer a loss in the regular time in all competitions this season. Ferencvaros was better than the league leader in the final of the Hungarian Cup, but that match was decided in the penalty shootout.

After this win, Ferencvaros is just two points behind Szolnok. However, Szolnok will probably keep 1st place in the standings before the playoffs, because it will face the last-placed KSI on Day 30, while Ferencvaros will play a new derby. They will play against OSC.

2020/21 Hungarian League, Day 29

Szolnok – Ferencvaros 7:11 (3:2, 2:5, 0:3, 2:1)

Szolnok: Pijetlovic 2, Angyal 1, A.Nagy 1, Ger.Kovacs 1, Filipovic 1, Szeghalmi 1.
Ferencvaros: Jaksic 4, D.Varga 2, Zalanki 2, Vamos 1, Jansik 1, Ven.Vigvari 1.

Szolnok had a slim 3:2 advantage after the first eight minutes. Ferencvaros opened the second quarter with three goals in a row (Vamos 1 and Jaksic 2) and earned a 5:3 lead in the 13th minute. The visitors maintained a 2-goal difference until the middle break (7:5).
Gergo Zalanki extended the margin to three in the 18th minute (8:5). By the end of the quarter, Nikola Jaksic added two goals, and Ferencvaros entered the last period with a huge 10:5 advantage. Ferencvaros’ defense did an excellent job in the third quarter, but the players of Szolnok missed several nice chances. They also hit the post a few times.

Denes Varga found the net from a distance in the 26th minute for 11:5, and everything was over for Szolnok. Immediately after, Dusko Pijetlovic converted a man-up to end Szolnok goalless phase that lasted more than 12 minutes. Still, it was too late for a comeback. In the remaining time, Angyal scored one goal for the hosts.

2 Ferencvaros 29 – 78
