UEFA EURO: Scotland Crash Out in Heartbreaking Fashion
Hungary's Late Winner Stuns Scots in Stuttgart
Scotland's hopes of reaching the last 16 of Euro 2024 were dashed in cruel fashion on June 23, as Hungary snatched a dramatic 100th-minute winner to secure a stunning 1-0 victory in Stuttgart.
The match, played in front of a passionate crowd of Scotland fans, was a tale of missed opportunities for Steve Clarke's side. Despite dominating possession and creating several clear-cut chances, they were unable to find the back of the net.
As the match entered its dying seconds, Hungary launched a desperate attack. A cross from the right found its way to Kevin Csoboth on the edge of the area, and the Hungarian midfielder calmly slotted the ball into the bottom corner to send the Hungarian fans into raptures.
The defeat is a major disappointment for Scotland, who had been hoping to make a significant impact at their first major tournament since the 1998 World Cup. They will now head home empty-handed, while Hungary have boosted their chances of reaching the knockout stages.
