Barnabas Varga was taken off on a stretcher and taken to hospital after he had been left motionless on the pitch following a collision. He had been leaping to meet a Dominik Szoboszlai free-kick in the 71st minute of a game Hungary won in stoppage time. While receiving treatment on the pitch Varga had sheeting placed around him. A statement from the Hungarian Football Federation said Varga was 'stable' in a Stuttgart hospital. He was understood to have been unconscious on the field and to have concussion and will undergo surgery on a cheekbone broken in several places.
