It would be a mistake to underestimate Armenia

Hungary's men's national squad congregated in Telki on Monday and by the end of the first training session, a change was already necessary, head coach Marco Rossi having to replace one of his goalkeepers.
Ferencváros goalkeeper Dénes Dibusz has suffered a recurrence of a previous injury, so Rossi and his coaching staff will be unable to count on him for the October World Cup qualifiers. In Dibusz's place, MTK's Patrik Demjén has been called up.
In other news on Monday, many players spent the training session recuperating after weekend club fixtures, but by Tuesday, the whole squad was back together on the training pitch. Before the session, Blackburn goalkeeper Balázs Tóth and Kocaelispor's Botond Balogh answered journalists' questions at the opening press conference of the camp.
"Firstly, I wish Dini Dibusz a swift recovery and I hope he gets over this injury soon," Tóth told those in attendance. "The coach has not yet communicated what his decision is on the goalkeeper issue, but I am preparing with the thought that if I get a chance, I'll be able to give my best performance. It is important that we approach the match against Armenia in the same way as we did the match against Portugal; it would be a mistake to think that we will have an easy match. If we want to continue dreaming of World Cup participation, we definitely have to win on Saturday," Tóth continued.
Alongside the Blackburn goalkeeper sat defender Botond Balogh, who is delighted to back in the national-team fold. "I'm happy to be a member of the squad again - I've managed to fit in with my new team and I feel I'm in good shape for the matches ahead. Armenia should not be taken lightly, because they are not a bad team at all, as they showed by defeating Republic of Ireland. A difficult opponent awaits us on Saturday, but we cannot lose points in the Puskás Arena," Balogh emphasised.
Barnabás Varga and Roland Sallai will not be able to play in Saturday’s match against Armenia due to suspension, while Dominik Szoboszlai, Attila Szalai and Barna Tóth all received yellow cards in September and would have to miss the next match if they'd receive another of the same colour.
