Hungary Footballer Barnabas Varga Suffers Life-Threatening Injury On Field vs Scotland
Brutal Collision During Euro 2024 Match
Stuttgart, Germany - June 23, 2024
Hungary forward Barnabás Varga remains in stable condition in a Stuttgart hospital following a life-threatening injury sustained during the Euro 2024 group stage match against Scotland. The 28-year-old collapsed on the pitch after a collision with Scottish goalkeeper Angus Gunn in the second half.
The incident occurred during a free kick, and Varga suffered a severe head injury. Medical staff rushed onto the field and administered CPR before transporting him to the hospital.
The match was halted for an extended period as Varga received treatment. Hungary ultimately secured a dramatic 1-0 win with a last-gasp goal from Kevin Csoboth in the 100th minute, but the victory was overshadowed by the serious injury to their teammate.
Varga is a key player for Hungary and has made over 50 appearances for his country. His injury is a significant setback for the team as they prepare for the knockout stages of the tournament.
The thoughts of the entire football community are with Varga and his family during this difficult time. The Hungarian Football Federation has issued a statement expressing its support and wishing him a speedy recovery.
