It was not as impressive and one-sided as it was against Scotland on the tournament’s opening night, but Germany have routinely clinched another victory on Wednesday night. The hosts defeated Hungary 2-0 to claim the top spot of Group A, thus securing their presence in the knockout stage, most probably as the group winners (Switzerland still have a chance to come on top of them in case they beat Scotland tonight and Die Mannschaft in the ultimate round).🚨🇩🇪 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋 | 2 games, 2 wins for Germany at #EURO2024 after victory vs Hungary… 7 goals scored, 1 goal conceded so far. ✅📈 pic.twitter.com/S5eN6Rqoz6— EuroFoot (@eurofootcom) June 19, 2024 Jamal Musiala and Ilkay Gundogan netted for Julian Nagelsmann’s team in Stuttgart. Dominik Szoboszlai led the Magyars, but the Liverpool midfielder couldn’t do it all alone, as his teammates were mostly uninspired. They did create two more than promising chances, though, and even scored once, but it was rightfully voided due to a blatant offside.On the other hand, a goal conceded in each half was enough for their second loss, though they still have some chances of qualifying for the knockout stage if they manage to destroy Scotland in the last game with a substantial goal margin.Musiala’s opener came out of the blue, as Gundogan exploited the confusion among the Hungarians to provide the youngster with an assist. He returned the favour to the veteran in the middle of the second half, kickstarting an eye-pleasing three-piece action, with Mittelstadt putting the ball on the plate for Gundogan and his superb finishing sealed the deal.EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP – GROUP STAGEWednesdayCroatia – Albania 2-2 (0-1)/Kramaric 74, Gjasula 76 og – Laci 11, Gjasula 90+4/Germany – Hungary 2-0 (1-0)22.00: (3.70) Scotland (3.40) Switzerland (2.05)Thursday 16.00: (4.10) Slovenia (3.50) Serbia (2.00)19.00: (5.60) Denmark (3.70) England (1.65)22.00: (2.30) Spain (3.30) Italy (3.20)***odds are subject to change***
