Egervári then spent a short time in Saudi Arabia, coaching Al-Ittihad, before the lure of further success in Hungary followed.

MTK also won that year's Super Cup trophy to bring the good times back to the famous Budapest club.

He took the Al Salmiya Club to third spot and also managed to help them finish in the top 4 of the GCC cup.

In 2007, Egervári headed to Győr, in Hungary, and took this club from close to bottom of the league to third spot, and qualification into the UEFA Cup.

He helped Győr beat Zestaponi of Georgia, over two legs, before meeting German giants VfB Stuttgart in the next round.

His young Győr side suffered numerous injuries, with key captain Peter Stark, breaking his ribs, which resulted in him missing most of the season.

Győr also suffered from fatigue after their involvement in the UEFA Cup, and the management of the club decided to do without his services in December 2008.

Egervári spent a short period of six months out of the game, deciding to focus on improving his English language skills during that time.

The then President of the Hungarian FA, Istvan Kisteleki, offered him the U20 national team manager's job, with little over a month before the 2009 FIFA U-20 World Cup finals in Egypt.

The departure of Dutchman Erwin Koeman resulted in Egervári being the obvious choice[citation needed] to manage the full Hungary national side for the first time.

He was officially appointed on 23 July 2010, with his first task being to take the Hungary national side to England for a friendly at Wembley Stadium on 11 August 2010.

Due to the injuries of key people like Balázs Dzsudzsák, Roland Juhász, and Zoltán Gera, nobody expected a victory against Sweden.

[citation needed] On 2 September 2011, Szabics scored against Sweden at the Puskás Ferenc Stadium in the last minutes of the first half.

A late goal by Szabics's fellow striker Gergely Rudolf resulted the celebration of 25,000 spectators after beating Sweden in the Euro 2012 qualifying by 2–1.
