In a Euro 2024 Group A match held in Stuttgart, Germany, Hungary defeated Scotland 1-0 with Kevin Csoboth's goal in the final minute of injury time, securing the 3rd position in the group and advancing to the round of 16. Scotland was eliminated. The match saw a tense moment when Hungary's forward Barnabas Varga collided with the Scottish goalkeeper in the 68th minute and had to be stretchered off, reminiscent of Christian Eriksen's incident in Euro 2020. Csoboth dedicated his goal to Varga, and Hungary's midfielder Roland Sallai mentioned playing for him in the final minutes of the match. Germany and Switzerland also advanced to the knockout stage, with Hungary awaiting results from other groups to determine their fate. Scotland, with only 1 point from a draw with Switzerland, faced elimination, having not won a Euro match since 1996. Hungary, riding a 14-game unbeaten streak from November 2022 to March 2024, came into Euro 2024 with high hopes after defeating strong teams like England and Germany in the UEFA Nations League, despite confidence setbacks from two consecutive losses in the current tournament.
