Hungary captain Szoboszlai couldn’t hide his concern upon witnessing teammate Varga unconscious after a dangerous collision.

The match between Scotland and Hungary was relatively uneventful until the 67th minute when a player lay motionless on the field due to a dangerous collision. Barnabas Varga collided face-first with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn’s shoulder. The impact was severe, causing the Hungarian player to lie motionless and apparently lose consciousness.

Medical staff were immediately dispatched, and screens were erected to shield Varga during the initial treatment, heightening concern among fans and players alike. This indicated a serious and potentially dangerous injury. Moments later, an ambulance was summoned onto the field, but updates on Varga’s condition were not yet available.

Returning to the match, Hungary scored in stoppage time to edge past Scotland with a minimal scoreline. This victory earned Szoboszlai and his teammates three crucial points, keeping their hopes alive for progression.
