Nations League: Georgia lost to Hungary 0- 2 #1TVSPORT

Georgia hosted Hungary in the 5th match of the Nations League B2 Group at Mikheil Meskhi Stadium in Tbilisi on Saturday, November 14, but lost with a score of 0:2.

In the match, Ramaz Svanadze, Chief Coach of the Georgian team, switched to a 4-3-3 formation. In place of the injured Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Otar Kiteishvili, as well as the suspended Giorgi Kochorashvili, he included Kvernadze, Gagnidze, and Mekvabishvili in the starting lineup.

Svanadze’s team started the match aggressively, causing the visitors several problems in the opening minutes. However, Mekvabishvili and Tsitaishvili failed to find the target, while a defender dispossessed Mikautadze right in front of the goal.

The pattern of the match did not change in the second half: the Georgian national team maintained greater control of the ball and attacked actively while the Hungarians continued to rely on counterattacks, a strategy that paid off. In the 73rd minute, an own goal by Lasha Dvali put Hungary ahead, and in the 85th minute, Varga fixed the final score.

The Georgian national football team will play the conclusive match on November 17, facing Ukraine in Košice, Slovakia.
