Match Report
Hungary came from behind to beat Kazakhstan 3-1 at the Nagyerdei Stadion in Debrecen, with captain Dominik Szoboszlai's second-half equalizer proving the turning point in a feisty international friendly.
Sergey Maliy silenced the home crowd with an early opener in the 9th minute, and Kazakhstan defended stubbornly through a chaotic first half that produced five yellow cards alone. Szoboszlai leveled just after the break (52'), before Mikhail Samorodov — already booked — was dismissed for a second yellow in the 63rd minute, reducing Kazakhstan to ten men. Hungary made the extra man count: András Schäfer made it 2-1 four minutes later (67'), and Rajmund Tóth sealed it deep in stoppage time.
The result gives Hungary a welcome confidence boost, while Kazakhstan will rue a disciplined first-half effort thrown away by reckless fouling — eight yellow cards between the two sides tells the story of the evening.
