SZEKESFEHERVAR, Hungary (Interstat) — Fehervar and Soroksar SC played to a 1-1 draw on Saturday in NB II competition, a result that frustrated the home side’s ambitions and provided a valuable away point for the visitors in their fight to move up the table.

The match, played before a crowd of 2,150 at MOL Aréna Sóstó, saw Soroksar SC striker Ádám Somogyi stun the hosts with an early goal in the 12th minute. The visitors, who had defeated Fehervar 3-1 in their previous meeting last October, looked poised to complete a season sweep.

Fehervar, which had been projected as a heavy favorite by statistical models, controlled large portions of the match but struggled to break down a resolute Soroksar defense for much of the afternoon. The pressure finally told in the 78th minute when veteran midfielder Balázs Lovrencsics found the equalizer, ensuring Fehervar avoided a costly home defeat.

The shared points did little to alter the broader trajectory of either club’s season. Fehervar, now with a record of 9 wins, 7 losses and 9 draws in NB II play, missed an opportunity to solidify its position in the top half of the standings. Their overall record across all competitions this season stands at 13 wins, 8 losses and 9 draws.

For Soroksar SC, the road point represents a positive step as they seek to climb away from the lower reaches of the league. Their NB II record now sits at 5 wins, 12 losses and 8 draws, with an overall mark of 8 wins, 13 losses and 8 draws. The team entered the match having secured a narrow victory over BVSC the previous weekend but had managed just one win in its five prior fixtures.

The outcome defied pre-match projections from Interstat, whose game simulator had predicted a 3-2 victory for Fehervar and whose ELO rating system gave the home side an 87.2 percent probability of winning.

Both teams will look to build on the result next Sunday in league action. Fehervar travels to face Szeged-Csanad, while Soroksar SC will host Budafoki MTE.
