No surprises in the first round of the league if you consider Videoton not at their last season standards right now. Newly promoted Bekescsaba went close to a stunning victory against Debrecen, up 2-1 they saw their opponent coming back and in the last minute, thanks to a freekick by Korhut, securing a very important away victory. Last minute goal for Ferencvaros as well with new comer Sestak, sealing the 3 points and bringing a convincing 0-2 success back home, they definitely look like one the favourites for final victory. Defeat for Vasas in their first game in NB1 after the promotion, the Budapest team got the lead but couldn't hold it long as Diosgyor scored twice ( Grumic - Gruz's own goal ) and won the game 2-1.
Three points for MTK as well thanks to Torghelle, as they hope to repeat the last brilliant season. Scoreless tie between Ujpest and Paksi, they will get a chance to do better next round.
Highlights:
Ujpest-Paksi
MTK-Puskas FC
Diosgyor-Vasas
Honved-Videoton
Haladas-Ferencvaros
Bekescsaba-Debrecen
Therefore the first ranking of the season in quite simple, top of the table for Fradi because of goals difference, followed by Debrecen, Diosgyor, Honved and MTK.
Next round will be played in the weekend of the 25th and 26th of July. Two Budapest derbies will fire the passion: MTK-Honved and Vasas-Ujpest, top of the table clash between Ferencvaros and Diosgyor. The full schedule:
