UEFA Nations League: Germany denied three points by last-chance penalty for Hungary; Sweden’s Gyökeres scores four

The Hindu  

Dominik Szoboszlai scored a penalty in the ninth minute of stoppage time to deny Germany a victorious end to the Nations League group stage and show why Hungary is one of the hardest places to win in world football. That preserved Hungary’s unbeaten run at home, which now stretches to 13 games over more than two years since June 2022 and a loss to Italy in the previous edition of the Nations League. The Nations League quarterfinal lineup was already decided before Tuesday’s games kicked off, with Portugal, France, Germany and Spain as group winners and Croatia, Italy, the Netherlands and Denmark qualifying as runners-up. Gyökeres scored four goals, including one within seconds of Azerbaijan kicking off following another Sweden goal, and he overtook Norway’s Erling Haaland to end the group stage as Nations League top scorer with nine from six games.
