Hungarian Cup: Újpest- Debrecen 1-3

We did not manage to qualify for the Hungarian Cup final after the result of the first game was 2-1 and in the second match our team suffered a 3-1 defeat in Szusza Ferenc Stadium. Following the boring first half Kabát scored from a free kick, we may have felt ourselves in heaven for one and a half minutes but the guests equalized pretty soon and scored two more goals in the finish ensuring their victory and the qualification.

After the game, the commissioned coach, Marc Leliévre said the following in his interview on ujpestfc.hu:

- First, I would like to congratulate my colleague. Both teams played boldly in the first half, we could not create goal situations. In the intermission, I asked our players to put more pressure on Debrecen, our game reflected it after that. Our team became disorganized after our goal and Debrecen exploited this very skilfully. I assume full responsibility for the goals received in the last 10 minutes. When substituting, I made decisions with which we wanted to win the match. We did not have a chance to score in the last 8 or 9 minutes that is why I substituted one of our center defenders. I think we can accept the result after such a game, we tried everything in order to achieve victory. I would like to thank our supporters for all the cheering and support. It is always a great pleasure if there is another team behind our team, it has a positive effect on the players. I beg our supporters to stay on our side even in the times of difficulty, the team needs its fans because only with their help can they get out of this situation.
