With 7 goals and only 1 conceded after 2 matches in Group A, the German team entered the match with Switzerland in the early morning of June 24 (Vietnam time) with the condition of only needing 1 point to secure the top spot.
However, as the host of EURO 2024, it seems that coach Julian Nagelsmann does not want to consider this a formality match. He still uses a very strong squad.
But after a few minutes of dominating without scoring, the German team encountered fierce resistance and then unexpectedly conceded a goal after 28 minutes of play.
Perhaps, the remaining time was long enough for the Germans to believe that they had a chance to come back. Great pressure was created with a total of 18 shots (Switzerland only had 4).
The problem was, as time ticked down to the finish line, the goal still didn’t come in a hurry. If they lost, they would drop to second place and play the runner-up in Group B (most likely Italy).
The panic came to the home team at the end of the 90 minutes of regulation, then halfway through the 4 minutes of added time. Finally, that panic in Frankfurt was over, when Niclas Fullkrug appeared with an equalizer 1-1.
And that's it, Germany will meet the second place team in Group C.
There were also moments of panic in Stuttgart, when Hungary's Barnabas Varga went into convulsions after a collision in the second half of the match against Scotland.
He was taken to hospital for a check-up afterwards. And then the Hungarians received good news when Kevin Csoboth scored the decisive goal in the final seconds of 10 minutes of added time.
Hungary did not control the ball much but played solidly and counter-attacked effectively. With 3 points, they will compete for a ticket to the round of 16 with the third-placed teams in the remaining groups.
