In a dramatic finale to their Euro 2024 group stage campaign, Scotland faced Hungary in Stuttgart on Sunday night, resulting in a last-minute 1-0 defeat for the Scots. The decisive goal came from Hungarian substitute Kevin Csoboth in the 100th minute, effectively ending Scotland’s hopes of advancing to the knockout rounds.
The match was paused for approximately seven minutes in the 67th minute following a collision between Hungary forward Barnabas Varga and Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn. Varga, who sustained a fractured cheekbone, was taken to a local hospital for surgery. Post-match, Hungary captain Dominik Szoboszlai criticized the delayed response of medical staff, calling for faster action in future emergencies.
Despite the victory, Hungary’s progression to the next round remains uncertain, contingent on the outcomes of other group matches.
