Breaking: Hungary eliminated from European Football Championship 2024

The European Football Championship ended for the Hungarian national team last night. As Georgia defeated Portugal 2-0 in Group F on Wednesday night, Hungary will not qualify for the last eight at the EURO 2024 in Germany.

Although football fans had been hoping for days that Hungary might make it to the last 16, it turned out to be a long shot as four third-placed teams beat Hungary to the final, Telex reports.

Hungary’s match against Scotland

On Sunday night, the Hungarian team scored their first win of this year’s European Championship against Scotland. After a horror injury suffered by Barnabás Varga, the game was stopped for a long time and ten minutes of additional time were played. After a nice interplay, Kevin Csoboth scored in the 100th minute. With the three points, Hungary overtook Scotland to finish third in the group.

The Hungarian national team will next face Germany in Düsseldorf on 7 September in the fourth season of the Nations League.
