After being called into the Hungarian national team last week for a pair of friendlies, Chicago Fire forward Nemanja Nikolic started and scored his team's only goal in a 2-1 defeat against Luxembourg on Thursday afternoon.
Nikolic's goal came in the 18th minute, quickly erasing an early lead Luxembourg had taken just three minutes prior. However, Hungary were forced to play down a man after Gergö Lovrencsics received a second yellow card in the 52nd minute, and ultimately conceded the match-winner to Luxembourg in the 84th.
The 75-minute appearance was Nikolic's first for Hungary since a 2-0 World Cup Qualifying win over Latvia on Oct.
