In the season 1980–81, he participated into the European Champions' Cup with Budapest Honved where they reached the second round of the competition where they were beaten by Real Madrid by a 3-0 aggregate scoreline.
He participated in the 1986 World Cup, which turned out a major disaster for Hungarian football – mainly because of the 0–6 defeat against the Soviet Union – and for Dajka in particular, having scored an own goal in the particular match.
He was particularly well known for headers, scoring a great number of his goals that way.
He has lately coached several Hungarian teams.
