Germany vs. Hungary Euro 2024 Match Report

Musiala Scores Again as Germany Advance to Knockout Stage

Germany continued their impressive start to Euro 2024 with a 2-1 victory over Hungary on Sunday, becoming the first team to qualify for the knockout stage.

Jamal Musiala, who scored Germany's first goal in their opening 5-1 win over Scotland, got the visitors off to a quick start by tapping in Manchester City teammate İlkay Gündoğan's cross in the eighth minute.

Hungary, who were playing in their first major tournament since Euro 2016, equalized in the 66th minute through Ádám Szalai. However, Gündoğan restored Germany's lead just six minutes later, curling a beautiful shot into the top corner.

Germany controlled the game for most of the second half and had several chances to extend their lead. But they were unable to find the net again, and Hungary had a few chances of their own to level the score in the closing stages.

In the end, Germany held on for the victory, which was their third in a row in this tournament. They have now scored eight goals and conceded just two, making them one of the favorites to win the competition.

Conclusion

Germany's victory over Hungary was a solid performance from the team, who showed their quality and determination to win. They will now be looking to finish top of Group F when they face Portugal in their final group game on Thursday.

Hungary, meanwhile, will be hoping to bounce back from this defeat when they take on Scotland in their final group game. They will need to win that match to have any chance of reaching the knockout stage.
