Next to them, the Benedek brigade was advancing, while the Simbschen brigade marched from Dunaszeg towards Révfalu. Görgei departed from Tata early on 28 June traveling to Gőnyű, before continuing towards Győr. At Szentjánospuszta he met with II. corps, which was marching towards Győr, and ordered József Kászonyi to move towards Koroncó. When Görgei reached Győr (according to some sources around 11:00, while according to others between 1:00 - 2:00 p.m.) he learned that the battle was underway, and Poeltenberg gave up the first defensive line West of the city.
