Kamila Beregszasziova (born May 3, 1980, in Košice, Slovakia) is a former slovak footballer, as a player, she represented the Slovakia women's national football team as a striker.
She fought on four fronts in parallel: Slovak Women's First League , and Slovakia women's national football team,and Slovak national football team for women under 18 years of age , and as a student at the Technical University of Košice.
Finally, she passed the "big test", used an enormous amount of work only during a 5-year international career, and the former striker saved the best for last. In 2001, at the age of 21, she grew into a player who is not only the first player to unlock a special achievement and achieve a historic international " goal poker ", including a perfect hat trick [1] for Slovakia, but also received the great honor of being nominated for the award 2001 FIFA World Player of the Year , when FIFA honors the world woman player of the Year for the first time. Beregszasziova in the world football elections took 20th place among the best players in the world, when earning 5 points for Slovakia, which Beregszásziová is rightly proud of. She left her parent club Olympia Košice and Slovakia women's national football teamas a Top 20 players in the world. That was her last major contribution to the slovak national team and club.
Then hung her football boots on the wall, next to her framed university diploma.
We look back - after 23 years, when things started well for Slovak national women, it has never happened again, neither in the women's poll FIFA Women's World Player of the Year nor in the men's poll FIFA World Player of the Year , We did not find any Slovak players, no placement. Beregszasziová is historically the first and only Slovak national representative, whether among women or men, who has succeeded in doing so.
Playing career
Her talent was noticed by the well-known Czechoslovak league gunner Alojz Martinček [cs].
Youth career
On 23 October 1996, at the age of just 16, Beregszasziová played her first match for the Slovak national football team for women under 18 years of age .
She scored her first goal at this level on September 8,1997 in the first ever friendly match of the Slovak national football team for women under 18 years of age against the Czech Republic in Brumov, with a 1:1 equalizer, after game she was declared the best player of the Slovak team.[2]
International career
Beregszasziova made her debut in the senior national team rather than in the junior team,[3] when she played on August 14, 1996 even in the starting line-up of the UEFA Women's Euro 1997 qualifying match against Finland, on this occasion at the age of 16 (more precisely 16 and 103 days) she became the youngest debutant in the history of the national team.[4][5]
After her qualifying debut as as a teenager in the Slovakia women's national football team, she managed to make the transition to the adult ranks and was a regular member of the Slovak national team in friendly and qualifying matches of the UEFA Women's Euro 1997 qualifying and 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification (UEFA), in UEFA Women's Euro 2001 qualifying and 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification (UEFA).
She scored her first goal for the national team as a teenager on September 2, 1997, when she scored a 2–0 goal in 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup qualification (UEFA) against Bosnia and Herzegovina, a goal she scored at the age of 17 years 122 earned her the record for the youngest goalscorer in the history of the senior national team. Thanks to this goal, she participated in the historically highest victory of Slovakia in Šala in the match with Bosnia and Herzegovina 11:0.[6]
Six days later, she scored her first international junior goal on September 8, 1997, in the historically first friendly junior match under 18 against the Czech Republic in Brumov, scoring the equalizing goal to make it 1:1 and at the same time being named the best player in Slovakia.[2]
She scored her first double in the senior national team jersey on April 1, 1998 in a 4-0 victory against Israel.[7] which made her the best scorer of Slovakia in the net of Israel, against whom she scored a total of 4 goals in 5 matches (two in Bat Jam, 1.4.1998 in the qualification for the 1999 World Cup in a 4:0 victory)[8] and two in April 2000 in Nitra, in the qualification of the European Championship 2001 with a 4:0 win.[9][10]
On May 1, 1998, in a 7-0 away win against Bosnia and Herzegovina in a qualifying match of the 1999 FIFA Women's World Cup, just in the 2nd minute after the opening whistle of the match, she was the first to score the fastest goal in the history of Slovakia.[11]
Between 1996 and 2001, she scored 13 goals in 22 fierce matches (qualifications) for the Slovak national team. Her international record is an average of 0.59 goals per match.
In the 2003 World Cup qualifiers, she scored four goals in one match against Bosnia and Herzegovina on 16 August 2001.[1][12] She was the best player in the match. This makes her the first player in history to score a "goal poker" for Slovakia.[13]
