Hungary hosted Germany at the Ferenc Puskas Stadium in the UEFA Nations League on Tuesday, November 19 as the two teams played out a 1-1 draw.
Germany dominated possession in the first half as they looked to put the hosts on the back foot. With 72% of the ball, they created several chances and attempted five shots, but none of those on target. Hungary, on the other hand, attempted six shots with two on target despite having limited possession of the ball. The first period ended goalless.
Both managers made several changes in the second half as they looked to grab the lead. However, Germany struck first late in the contest as Felix Nmecha scored in the 76th minute to make it 1-0. There was late drama as Hungary were awarded a penalty and Dominik Szoboszlai scored to make it 1-1 with the last kick of the match.
