31 May Hungary - Croatia

the tournament in Bruxelles won't be held for whatever reasons, too good I didn't buy my airticket yet, so it will be replaced by this one. so it will be the official euro 2012 joint bid final game in Budapest.

It's just the few times Croatian/Hungarian NT/clubs met (mainly Dinamo vs. MTK, and a recent WC 2006 qualifier) there seemed to be more Croatian fans at the match

hehehe as I just said before, MTK fans they are 5 of them, 2 of them are members here, and that NT match was irrelevant for both sides, you already qualified, we already confirmed our 4th place in the group. roud: but there were some 1000s Hungary fans at the first game in Zagreb (the one you won 3-0)

nevertheless, always fun to have a balkan or central euro derby

Okostojás says: since Hungary is not part of the Balkans (altough in some ways tending to be, just look the 'worst' Balkans mentality in some football clubs and every day life), calling this match as a Balkan derby is incorrect. A Greece-Croatia match would be Balkans derby for sure (altough Croatia is a Catholic state and literally only it's southern part is the part of the Balkans).

Don't throw rocks at me, but I'm a historian, reading such statements is a kind of insult to me:smileani:

literally spoken, the Balkan is a hegység in Bulgaria so no team except Bulgaria can claim the proper balkanity. ok that dude Zeune called the entire south-east of europe the balkan peninsula but that was a geographical mistake anyways. mentality wise though we are as "balkanic" as can be.

I don't think there are any HUN bars or anything in Toronto,

thats somehow surprising for one of the biggest hungarian cities in north america

 

[szövkap]

the HUN scene is pretty dead in Toronto, sadly :S

huns pretty much assimilated there it seems?

What! you mean none of you read about the Szpari loan deal he signed yesterday?

who? Fülöp?

I'm so excited. leaving to the airport in a couple of minutes. praying that we see Németh having his debut tomorrow.

hajrá Magyarok!

they filmed us eating tökmag

it was also nice to meet King Béla roud:

as for the game, BoBo and Marci really looked shaky. especially Marci doesn't seem too confident in most situations. I blame him for the goal, then that silly fisting looked ridiculous. if we have to rely on him we are lost.

the others: Juhász and Vaskó superstars. Huszti a great fighter with skills, Gera some great moves, did some nice összjáték with Hajnal, Dárdai and Vadócz a good dm team too. Juji wasn't too convincing this time, Bodnár neither, but both weren't awful either. I rather have Szél than Boci in the rb position. Orosz did nothing. Németh should have come in.

1-1 a decent result, although I must say I am a bit disappointed.
