Marco Rossi:

On Tuesday evening, Hungary Men played its second warm-up match in four days in the Puskás Aréna, this time against Kosovo. After a difficult first half, our team scored twice in the second period and ultimately prevailed 2-0, thus extending our unbeaten streak to 14 matches.

"It’s always difficult to pick up the rhythm again when the squad meets after such a long absence. The last meeting was in November and a lot of time has passed since then, but I'm glad we were able to meet again for a few days,” Marco Rossi began. "In today's match, the first half was not our best again, but it was to be expected that our performance would look different after we made seven changes from the line-up which faced Turkey. Our game improved in the second half and then we were able to give opportunities to several players who’ve previously played less often, Rossi continued. „In the future, we’ll have to do more further away from the goal, because we had many opportunities to take long shots, but we didn’t take them and instead often tried to continue passing the ball, even inside the penalty area. We still have a lot to improve in terms of the patterns of our games, but I’m happy with the results, because they also prove that we are constantly improving. Regardless, I don't think that qualifying from the group stage at the European Championship is an aim that can be in any way a foregone conclusion. We’re working hard, but we mustn’t forget that we’ll meet opponents who are of a very high standard,” Rossi concluded.
