Barnabás Balogh, Áron Russnák, and Milán Balaskó from our club have been selected for the youth national team.

The U18 national team kicked off the season in early September with a friendly match against Bosnia and Herzegovina, claiming a two-goal victory in the clash held in Telki. Starting in the lineup were our goalkeeper Barnabás Balogh and Áron Russnák, who can be deployed across several positions in defense.
