Vilmos Vanczák (in Hungarian pronounced as /ˈvilmoʃ ˈvɒnt͡saːk/; born 20 June 1983 in Miskolc) is a retired Hungarian footballer who played as a full-back.
Vanczák started to play football in his hometown's club, Diósgyőri VTK,[1] and made his first-team debut at the age of 15. He spent the following season in the youth team of Vasas[2] and joined Újpest FC in 2001. He spent the autumn of 2002 in Újpest's second league 'B' team, Újpest FC-Fót on loan, and rejoined the first team of Újpest in 2003.[3]
After his debut in the national team of Hungary, he joined Belgian team Sint-Truiden. In 2007, he returned from loan and joined Újpest FC for the third time.
On 17 July 2007 Vanczák signed a four-year contract with FC Sion.[4] Vanczák has been playing for FC Sion in the Swiss Super League since 2007. In 2011 he scored one of the goals as Sion defeated Neuchâtel Xamax FCS 2-0 in the Swiss Cup Final.[5]
On 3 March 2010 Vanczák scored his first international goal against Russia in a friendly match in Győr at the ETO Park. The match finished 1–1. On 6 September Vanczák scored the first goal in the Euro 2012 qualifier against Moldova at the Zimbru Stadium in Chişinău which secured a 2–0 victory for Hungary.[6]
Lionel Messi was sent off on his international debut for Argentina in a friendly against Hungary on 17 August 2005, after being judged to have fouled Vanczák.[7] [8]
