In the opening round, Germany confirmed their status as one of the main favorites for Euro 2024. The tournament hosts simply demolished Scotland with a 5-1 score and topped Group A. Throughout the match, Scotland created chances amounting to 0.00 xG, but Antonio R?diger accidentally deflected the ball into his own net towards the end.
Interestingly, all five goals against Scotland were scored by different players: Florian Wirtz, Jamal Musiala, Kai Havertz, Niclas F?llkrug, and Emre Can.
It is unlikely that Germany will experiment with the starting lineup against Hungary. Most likely, Julian Nagelsmann will field the same players who secured the first victory of the tournament.
Many considered Hungary the favorite in their first-round match against Switzerland, but Marco Rossi’s team, which played excellently in the Nations League and confidently won their qualifying group, was very disappointing. This was especially true in the first half when Switzerland completely dominated and scored two goals. After the break, Hungary’s top scorer Barnab?s Varga pulled one back, but in the final minutes, Breel Embolo settled the matter.
It is clear that the match against Germany could be decisive for Hungary. A defeat would bring Hungary very close to being eliminated from the tournament. While theoretically, a third-place finish could allow Hungary to advance, the goal difference, currently at -2 for Rossi’s team, will be crucial.
