Hungary defeated Montenegro 2-1 in a UEFA Nations League match played on June 7, 2022 at the Groupama Arena in Budapest.
The home side got off to a strong start and broke the deadlock in the 34th minute through Roland Sallai, who scored with a well-taken left-footed finish from the edge of the penalty area. Hungary continued to apply pressure after scoring and nearly doubled their advantage, but were unable to find the target before the halftime break.
Montenegro improved in the second half and came close to equalizing in the 55th minute through Stefan Mugosa, only for his header to go narrowly wide of the far post. They maintained possession in the Hungary half and finally found a breakthrough in the 72nd minute. Mugosa headed home a cross from the left to level the score at 1-1.
With the match heading towards a draw, Hungarymounted late pressure looking for a winner. They got their goal in dramatic fashion when substitute Zsolt Nagy scored from outside the box in added time, firing a shot that deflected in off a defender. The referee blew the full time whistle moments later as Hungary held on for the 2-1 victory.
The hosts thus picked up their first three points of the new Nations League campaign 拾, moving above their opponents into top spot in League B Group 3. Both teams will now turn their focus to their upcoming fixtures later in June as they look to improve their positions in the group standings. While the result was disappointing for Montenegro, they can take positives from their second half improvements as they seek a response. It was a hard fought win for Hungary that showed their strength at home, with Nagy's late intervention proving crucial in deciding a tight contest. - https://livesport365.live/match/hungary-vs-montenegro-1629326288.html
