Hungary achieved a shocking victory over Germany with a score of 1-0, while Italy sent their visitor England to level two by defeating them by the same score on Friday in the Group C matches of the UEFA Nations League. In Leipzig, Germany, Hungary continued its impressive results, inflicting a defeat on Coach Hansi Flick's men, who had lost to them 0-4 at home, thus boosting their chances of reaching the semi-finals of the Nations League.
Hungary could have secured their qualification with this victory, which marks their first win over Germany in official competitions since the group stage of the Munich Olympics in 1972 (4-1), if Italy had not managed to win against England in Milan, thanks to a goal from Giacomo Raspadori in the 68th minute. Hungary owes their third victory in this group, placing them ahead of their new runner-up and upcoming rival Italy by two points, to Ádám Szalai, who scored the only goal in the 17th minute.
With their third defeat, following losses to Hungary 0-1 on their territory and 0-4 at home, England has dropped to level two of the Nations League before facing their rival Germany at Wembley on Monday, while Italy visits Hungary in Budapest.
