Match report
Hungary secured a 1-0 win for Hungary over Georgia in the UEFA Nations League on Friday, October 2, with the half-time score also 1-0. The final score and the interval score were unchanged, leaving Hungary with one goal and Georgia with no goals; the match produced one goal overall.
The figures point to a game in which Hungary held most of the ball and generated the available shots, while Georgia recorded none. That advantage in possession did not translate into a high shot total, and the single goal proved enough to decide the contest.
How it unfolded
Hungary were ahead by 1-0 at half-time, and the match finished 1-0. The only goal was therefore on the board by the interval; there were no further goals after the break.
The numbers
Hungary had 69% possession to Georgia's 31%, a clear split in time on the ball. The shot count was 6 to 0, and the shots-on-target figures were 1 and 0. So Hungary produced the match's attempts and its only effort on target, while Georgia did not test the goalkeeper with a shot.
The corner count was 1 for Hungary and 0 for Georgia. The saves figures were 0 for Hungary and 1 for Georgia. Taken together, those measures show a match with little activity at either end: the total shot count was limited, and the corner count was lower still. The figures also make the result's narrow margin clear. Hungary controlled possession and scored, but the shot-on-target total remained modest.
