The Hungarian men’s U15 national football team suffered a 1–0 defeat against Albania in a friendly match held in Tirana. The only goal of the game occurred in the 20th minute when Albania capitalized on a Hungarian turnover, with Dani scoring from approximately 14 meters out.
Hungary had a significant opportunity to equalize before halftime when Ádám Kalocsai struck the crossbar with a shot from eight meters.

Youth football expert Csenger Horváth defended the player’s selection, stating that his performance and potential earned him the call-up regardless of external scrutiny regarding his family background.
