Quote of the week
Martin Masaryk, head coach of our women’s team, after the first NB I match against Szent Mihály-Szeged: “Congratulations to Szeged on the victory, and thank you to the girls for their performance on the pitch. My respect goes to my team; we played with humility throughout. We know we are newcomers in the first division, so we still need to gain experience and always focus on ourselves. I could talk about other things too, but there would be no point and it would not do me any good either. The most important thing is to analyse the mistakes and concentrate on our own task. We will keep working and I believe we will continue to improve."
This happened during the week (26 August–1 September):
100 years ago:
On 31 August 1924, Kispesti AC and Budapesti AK were due to play in the Hungarian Cup, but because both clubs had players involved in international matches, they mutually agreed to postpone the fixture. Instead, the teams played a friendly, which Kispesti AC won 5–1. The red-and-blacks’ goals were scored by Morvay (3), Körmendy and Ferenczy.

On 31 August 1974, in round 1 of the NB I, Bp. Honvéd beat VM Egyetértés 3–1 on Szőnyi út. Kispest’s goals were scored by Mihály Kozma in the 30th minute, János Fehérvári in the 71st and Lajos Kocsis in the 74th.
