Marco Rossi receives support from MLSZ President after Hungary victory
Following a 1-0 victory against Georgia at the Puskás Aréna, secured by a header from Milos Kerkez, Hungarian national team coach Marco Rossi expressed gratitude toward MLSZ President Sándor Csányi for his personal support. Csányi recently reaffirmed Rossi's position during a training camp, signaling long-term confidence despite the team's previous failure to qualify for the summer World Cup.
Rossi highlighted the intense energy and tactical discipline displayed by his players. He specifically praised Dominik Szoboszlai for his commitment and versatility, noting that his substitution during the match was due to minor cramps rather than performance issues. Following Szoboszlai's exit, András Schäfer served as captain for the first time in his international career.
The team's stability remains tied to upcoming results in the Nations League. A crucial match against Ukraine is scheduled for Monday, which will be held in Slovakia due to the war in Ukraine. A minimum of one point is required in that fixture to maintain the team's chances of advancement.
