People who followed the game in Budapest said that the atmosphere at the stadium was subdued with empty seats, and the match itself was equally underwhelming. Hungary created some chances, including a dangerous header and close-range effort from Varga, while Zsolt Nagy aimed for the bottom corner following a save from Bosnian goalkeeper Nikola Vasilj. The second half saw Hungary continuing to rely on set-pieces, with their best opportunity coming from a Szoboszlai free kick, which narrowly went over the bar after a touch.
