Hungarian player Barnabas Varga has been pictured for the first time since breaking multiple bones in his face in their Euro 2024 clash with Scotland.
The 29-year-old was sent tumbling to the turf following a brutal collision with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn, during Hungary’s 1-0 victory on Sunday.
The Ferencvaros forward was immediately knocked unconscious and was seen lying rigid on the pitch as desperate teammates frantically signalled medics on the touchline.
His beautician girlfriend, Laura Skrapits – who was in the stands to witness the shocking incident – confirmed yesterday that he has surgery to fix the multiple broken bones.
In a picture posted on social media, his girlfriend and team-mates are seen as among those to visit him in hospital.
