Hungary had to hang tough, but they ultimately dug out a hard-fought 1-0 win against Armenia in Yerevan to dent the Republic of Ireland's World Cup play-off hopes on Thursday evening.
The Boys in Green were hoping Armenia could do them a favour by at least taking a point against Hungary, who host Ireland in Budapest on Sunday.
Instead, Barnabas Varga's 33rd-minute header proved enough to give the visitors a massive three points.
That means Ireland require at least a draw against Portugal at the Aviva Stadium tonight and a win in Hungary on Sunday to earn a spot in the play-offs.
If Ireland draw tonight, they would need a win by two clear goals in Budapest. If Heimir Hallgrimsson's men lose, the World Cup dream is officially over.
