Újpest reported on the decision of the city’s rival on its official website, as the blue and white club writes, “MTK management asked for a day off to reconsider and they finally decided negatively, so there is nothing left but to stand up. The virus and injuries are very weak for our team, at the moment they could not fill the field with a NB1 frame, they will enter the field with the youngsters. Our children will be trained without the physical presence of head coach Predrag Rogan and the professional staff for a week, the professional staff of our U19 and NB III teams will help them prepare. “

As we reported, Újpest could only be in reserve in Wednesday’s Hungarian Cup match against Dunaújváros, some of the professional staff, including Predrag Rogan, were not on the bench. On Thursday and Friday, new tests were carried out at the club, which revealed that the infection had reached most of the team, including players who had been ill for a month and a half and have since returned to the frame.
MTK – also on its own website – issued an announcement on the background of the decision, in which the boulevards of Hungary write that there are many injured and missing in their own team.
“We cannot accept Újpest FC’s request to postpone it because the tight schedule makes it almost impossible to replace the postponed match on equal terms for both clubs, as the national team breaks offer the opportunity to do so, but we have several teams. adults and under-21s (invitations were received for eight of our players during the last national team break), so we could not replace the match yet, although there may be no guarantee that our club will not be at a disadvantage in the new moment due to a new decision ”. – write MTK in a statement.
