Nations League – BiH Loses Against Hungary

The Bosnia and Herzegovina national "A" football team was defeated tonight at the Bilino polje stadium in Zenica by Hungary 0:2 (0:1 HT) in the 4th round of Group A3 of the UEFA Nations League.

Within just 30 seconds, the Dragons made their first serious threat. Jusuf Gazibegović broke through Hungary's defense, but there was no one in the box to finish his cross. After 10 minutes, Hungary also posed a threat, but Barnabas Varga's shot was well saved by Nikola Vasilj. In the 13th minute, after a corner, Bendeguz Bolla volleyed hard from over 20 meters, but Vasilj made a great save. A minute later, a nice move by our team down the left, with Sead Kolašinac and Haris Hajradinović combining to set up Benjamin Tahirović, whose 16-meter shot missed by mere centimeters. In the 38th minute, Hungary launched a quick counterattack, but Roland Sallai's shot went wide. Hungary took the lead in the 38th minute—Zsolt Nagy had too much space on the left, and his cross was converted by Dominik Szoboszlai. In the first minute of injury time, Edin Džeko managed to get a shot off, but the ball went over the bar.

In the 49th minute, after contact between substitute Nail Omerović and Zsolt Nagy, referee Anthony Taylor pointed to the spot, and Hungarian captain Dominik Szoboszlai successfully converted the penalty. Our captain managed to get another shot in the 65th minute, but Hungary's goalkeeper was there once again. In the 71st minute, after a free kick by Haris Hajradinović from the right, Edin Džeko tried to outsmart Hungary's goalkeeper with a backheel, but Denes Dibusz came out on top once more.

In the other group match played in Munich, Germany defeated the Netherlands 1:0. After four rounds, Germany leads the table with 10 points, the Netherlands and Hungary have 5 each, and Bosnia and Herzegovina have 1 point.

In the next round, scheduled for November 16, Germany will face Bosnia and Herzegovina, and the Netherlands will play Hungary.
