was <a href=\"https:\/\/tbrfootball.com\/topic\/dominik-szoboszlai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dominik Szoboszlai<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tbrfootball.com\/dominik-szoboszlai-credits-unbelievable-mentor-for-free-kick-thunderbolt-in-liverpool-vs-arsenal\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A stunning free-kick from Szoboszlai<\/a> proved to be the crucial moment against the Gunners as David Raya was given no chance.<\/p>\n<p>Szoboszlai is known as an attacking midfielder, but he has been <a href=\"https:\/\/tbrfootball.com\/liverpool-fans-have-a-lot-to-say-about-dominik-szoboszlais-display-at-right-back-against-newcastle-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">putting in a real shift as a right-back<\/a> in the early weeks of the new season.<\/p>\n<p>Szoboszlai was back in midfield for Hungary\u2019s clash with Portugal on Tuesday night \u2013 but he endured a difficult evening.<\/p>\n<p>The game was finely-poised at 2-2 after Barnabas Varga pulled Hungary level inside the final 10 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Just two minutes later, Szoboszlai picked the ball up in his own half and attempted to thread an intricate pass into Liverpool teammate Milos Kerkez.<\/p>\n<p>Joao Cancelo pounced on the pass and then scored the winner from Bernardo Silva\u2019s pass to hand Portugal the victory.<\/p>\n<p>Hungarian newspaper <a href=\"https:\/\/www.borsonline.hu\/foci\/2025\/09\/szoboszlai-dominik-valogatott-vereseg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Bors<\/a> reports that Szoboszlai was \u2018seen in tears\u2019 at the end of the game as he felt completely responsible for Portugal\u2019s winner.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s added that Szoboszlai was also seen apologising to supporters for his role in Cancelo\u2019s goal.<\/p>\n<p>Blackburn Rovers goalkeeper Balazs Toth consoled Szoboszlai, as the Hungary captain looked truly heartbroken after his mistake.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hungary boss on Dominik Szoboszlai mistake<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Szoboszlai does not need telling that his errant pass handed Portugal the victory, but Hungary boss Marco Rossi still made his feelings very clear.<\/p>\n<p>As quoted by <a href=\"https:\/\/magyarnemzet.hu\/sport\/2025\/09\/kerkez-szoboszlai-magyarorszag-portugalia-vb-selejtezo\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Magyar Nemzet<\/a>, Rossi branded Cancelo\u2019s goal \u2018avoidable\u2019 and suggested that Szoboszlai\u2019s pass was a \u2018big risk\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe goal was avoidable, it would have been readable, we shouldn\u2019t have taken such a big risk,\u201d said Rossi.<\/p>\n<p>Szoboszlai has been brilliant to start the season, and he must look to shrug off this mistake and bring his best form back to Liverpool.<\/p>\n<p>Another start at right-back could be in the pipeline for Szoboszlai, and you can be sure that Liverpool fans will be right behind him after a difficult end to his international break.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Liverpool star Dominik Szoboszlai was the hero against
