In the 2nd round of the group phase A division of the League of Nations, the football team of Bosnia and Herzegovina played tonight in Budapest, near Hungary. We played without goals, and definitely the first name of the match was Nikola Vasilj, who stopped several great chances for Hungary.
Initial matchup, and then the first shot of the match in the 13th minute. Ivan Bašić tried from a distance on the ground, the ball goes wide.
Four minutes later Vasilj makes a great save. After the corner, Bolla shoots with his head, the ball bounced off the ground and went towards the forks, but Vasilj saves in a new corner.
Vasilj saves again in the 24th minute. Varga threatened with a header, jumped over Dedić and shot under the crossbar, but the defending goalkeeper St. Pauli.
Another chance for Hungary ten minutes later. Sallai shot desperately, the ball somehow goes to the other side, Varga appeared and managed to shoot from a difficult position, but Vasilj defends!
Nikola Vasilj again in the 38th minute. Nagy covered one ball from the top of the penalty area, defended by our goalkeeper.

The Hungarians attacked, ours blocked, and the first serious attempt in the second half came only in the 66th minute. Edin Dzeko catches a volley out of nowhere with his left foot, Dibusz saves. It was the first shot into the goal frame for us.
Another shot by our selection in the 69th minute, Dibusz now defends Bičakčić’s attempt. It’s good, we’re attacking! We are waiting for Esmir Bajraktarević to enter to further shake it up.
We were very lucky in the 71st minute. Vasilj stood as if buried, Szoboszlai hit the crossbar from a free kick, and someone almost hooked it in the living wall and a corner was awarded.
Jusuf Gazibegović tried from a distance in the 78th minute, it went over the goal, and eight minutes later Benjamin Tahirović made a brilliant block.
And then the biggest chance of the game in the 89th minute. Adam shoots with his head like a ghost from a few meters away, defended by Vasilj who is definitely the first name of the match.
