Euro 2024 continues as Hungary face Switzerland in Group A to draw level with hosts Germany, who beat Scotland 5-1 in their tournament opener last night.
Both teams know they can strengthen their hopes of reaching the last 16 with a win in Cologne. Hungary, led by Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai, are unbeaten in Euro qualifying and have enjoyed wins over England and Germany over the past few years. Marco Rossi’s squad is seen as a dark horse by some people.
Switzerland, meanwhile, have a strong recent record at major tournaments and reached the quarter-finals of Euro 2020 three years ago after beating favorites France on penalties. Granit
Group A opponents Scotland expect both teams to drop points in Cologne after their tournament got off to the worst possible start in Munich. Steve Clarke’s side will face Switzerland on Wednesday and then Hungary next Sunday.

Close from Switzerland as Ndoye slips down the left flank. He cuts inside and hits it, but the ball is deflected for a corner.
The Swiss was in no rush to take a corner, and finally Vargas swung at him. It’s a good ball and Schar jumps at it, but he can only direct his header wide.

GOAL: Hungary 1-2 Switzerland
Much better than Hungary. Sallai takes it again on the left and slides it to Szoboszlai. He sends a lovely ball to the far post and Varga manages to get past his marker and head it past Sommer! Let’s start this game.

Another opportunity for Hungary and it’s very close! The cross was swung in by Sallai from the left and Varga was found near the penalty spot. He tried to direct his header towards goal but it went wide of the far post!

Euro 2024: Hungary 0-2 Switzerland
The Swiss player clearly looks more adept in possession of the ball, and more full of attacking ideas than their current opponents.
Hungary had a chance out of nowhere when Orban’s pass found Varga, but he managed to put it away well one-on-one. It’s offside anyway.

Euro 2024: Hungary 0-2 Switzerland
Poor from Szoboszlai as he squandered a corner and then miscontrolled to give possession back to the Swiss. The Hungarian captain has performed poorly so far.
From a free kick in their half, Hungary gave it straight to Ndoye, but his shot went over the bar from outside the penalty box.

Sallai is clipped on the edge of the box and Hungary has a dangerous free-kick. Szoboszlai swung it in and turned back for a corner.
