Hungarian striker unconscious after horrific collision, teammates burst into tears in fear

In the 73rd minute of the match between Scotland and Hungary in Group A of EURO 2024, when the score was 0-0, Hungary striker Barnabas Varga had a "fatal" collision with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn.

Specifically, in the aerial battle, Varga's head hit Gunn's goalkeeper very hard when both tried to compete for the ball. After the situation, Varga fell to the ground and lost consciousness. Immediately, the medical team had to enter the field. Doctors brought in a stretcher covered with a tarpaulin to prevent fans and the media from seeing Varga's image when the striker was in a dangerous state.

The collision caused Varga (white shirt, middle) to lose consciousness.

Varga received first aid before leaving the field.

Medical staff and Hungarian players work together to shield Varga

Seeing his teammate's condition, Hungary midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai was in tears. However, the Hungarian captain assisted the medical staff in bringing the stretcher onto the field to give first aid to his teammate.

Hungary and Scotland players are both worried about Varga's condition, amid the player's urgent hospitalization.

In the stands, fans also applauded when the medical team took Varga off the field and prayed for the Hungarian striker's quick recovery.

"We will always be with you, Varga," BBC shared.

Back to the match between Hungary and Scotland. After 2 matches, Scotland is third with 1 point, while Hungary is bottom with 0 points. Both teams need all 3 points in the decisive match to keep their hopes of reaching the round of 16 of EURO 2024 as one of the best third-placed teams alive.

Hungary played better than Scotland in this match, and then after Varga suffered a serious injury, the Eastern European team attacked even more fiercely. It seemed like the whole Hungarian team was fighting for Varga. The happy ending came to Szoboszlai and his teammates with the only goal in the 90+10 minute thanks to substitute Kevin Csoboth.

With a 1-0 win over Scotland, Hungary finished third in Group A and will wait for the results of the other groups to know their fate. The Eastern European team will also wait for Varga, praying that their number one striker will be out of danger.
