The key incident was a late penalty appeal for Diósgyőr that was waved away by the referee, sparking controversy. Honvéd's goalkeeper also made a crucial save in stoppage time to preserve the lead and the clean sheet. The win provided a positive result for Honvéd in their cup campaign. The Diósgyőr manager was critical of the refereeing decision, while the Honvéd coach highlighted his team's fighting spirit.
