Match19 Oct 2026
Debrecen sink to position 11
9 points, and a fixture list that is running out. The mathematics are not yet cruel, but they are no longer kind.

A one-man rearguard from Gergő Rácz
There were 8 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Csanád Fehér keeps the receipts
“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Debrecen may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.
Match17 Oct 2026
4 matches without a win for Debrecen
The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Debrecen are no longer polite ones.
Match17 Oct 2026
The goals have deserted Debrecen
3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Debrecen can tell you which week it ends in.

Ferencvaros take the points off Debrecen
Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

A row about effort at Debrecen
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Branimir Cipetić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Tempers go at Debrecen
Botond Vajda was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Krisztian Bese faces the questions
“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Krisztian Bese after 0‑1, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.
In brief
- The dugout Flórián Cibla dropped after a run of poor form
- The dugout Branimir Cipetić knocks on the manager’s door
- Looking ahead Ádám Lang goes back to face ETO Győr
