Hungary’s Varga stable after going off on stretcher

Hungary striker Barnabas Varga is "stable" in hospital after being carried off on a stretcher following a mid-air clash with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn in Sunday night's Euro 2024 match.

The match was held up for nearly seven minutes as Varga received lengthy treatment on the pitch.

"The Hungarian national team player is currently in one of the hospitals in Stuttgart," the Hungarian Football Federation wrote in a post on X, external.

"We will inform you immediately if there is any news on his status."

Sheets were held around Varga, 29, as he received treatment on the pitch, and he was immediately taken to hospital after the incident.

Hungary's players quickly signalled that Varga was in trouble and helped bring on the stretcher as others gathered round their team-mate.
