Events

Match Events

  • 0' What a night it is going to be! Scotland welcome Hungary for this crunch clash at Mercedes-Benz Arena.
  • 5' The teams are not in a rush to score plenty of goals. It might look strange considering Scotland that had 9 games and scored 10 goals.
  • 10' Zsolt Nagy has been disciplined this evening — perhaps mindful of those 0 cards already picked up this season.
  • 15' Scotland currently sit in the Array table. A result here could be decisive in the race for the top positions.
  • 18' It’s gonna be a card for Callum Styles.
  • 23' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.
  • 26' The referee does not hesitate — a card for Willi Orban on 26 minutes.
  • 31' It’s high time Marco Rossi made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
  • 36' Scotland international Anthony Ralston has been a key figure this campaign — 0 goals and 0 assists in the Array this season.
  • 41' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Callum McGregor suffering a number of foals already.
  • 44' The referee calls foul for Andras Schafer. He receives a card.
  • 49' Hungary started playing very sharply right from the kick off. However, it slowed down the tempo rapidly by 49.
  • 50' The referee has no hesitation. Scott McTominay is booked for Scotland — card on 50.
  • 55' The Array continues to deliver drama. Both Scotland and Hungary are desperate not to drop points on matchday .
  • 60' Hungary fans have not had much to celebrate tonight. Their side is struggling to get forward.
  • 61' Another substitution for Hungary to replace Callum Styles by Adam Nagy on 61 minute.
  • 66' A moment of individual brilliance could settle this. Both teams are waiting for that decisive action.
  • 71' Hungary seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.
  • 74' Hungary make a change. Barnabas Varga trudges off to be replaced by Martin Adam on 74 minutes.
  • 75' The referee calls foul for Laszlo Kleinheisler. He receives a card.
  • 76' Another change for Scotland made on 76 minute. John McGinn leaves to be changed by Lawrence Shankland.
  • 81' Scotland have won 10 goals from 9 games. They will be desperate to add to that tally today.
  • 83' It is a substitution in Scotland team. Anthony Ralston is replaced by Ryan Christie on 83 minute.
  • 86' Fresh legs for Hungary! Zsolt Nagy comes on to replace Bendeguz Bolla.
  • 89' A tactical swap from Scotland — Lewis Morgan on, Andrew Robertson off on 89 minutes.
  • 90' Kevin Csoboth has been a danger all night but risks an early exit having now seen a card on 90.
  • Another three points for Hungary.
