England slumped to its first loss to Hungary in six decades by 1-0 in the Nations League on Saturday. ()
Dominik Szoboszlai converted a second-half penalty after being fouled by Reece James.
The last time Hungary beat England came at the 1962 World Cup, with England having gone 15 matches unbeaten against Hungary since then.
Excluding penalty shootouts, it was England바카라s first defeat in 23 matches.
바카라We have to accept that we did not do enough to win the game. A draw would have been the fair outcome,바카라 England coach Gareth Southgate said. 바카라We did not create too many clear cut chances.
바카라The heat was a factor and took a lot out of the players and we tried to refresh the team earlier than normal. The balance of finding out about new things and the consistency of the regular team, I have to look at whether I got that right.바카라
바카라We바카라ve developed immensely in terms of how we play in possession,바카라 Hungary captain Ádám Szalai said. 바카라In the first half we kept possession well. In the second, we dominated until the goal, which is unbelievable. We proved at Euro 2020 what we바카라re capable of doing against the best, and we바카라ve shown this again.바카라
Also in the same group, Italy and Germany drew 1-1 with Lorenzo Pellegrini and Joshua Kimmich trading goals three minutes apart in the second half in Bologna.
Pellegrini redirected a cross from Italy debutant Wilfried Gnonto before Kimmich fired in a rebound.
European champion Italy, which did not qualify for a second consecutive World Cup, made wholesale changes following a 3-0 loss to Argentina in the Finalissima on Wednesday.
바카라We played evenly against a great national team,바카라 Italy coach Roberto Mancini said. 바카라Germany is one of the strongest teams right now.바카라
Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma appeared to injure his left wrist on the final play of the match.
The match in Hungary was marred when schoolchildren jeered England players taking the knee during their pre-kickoff anti-racism gesture. The game was meant to be played in an empty stadium due to fans바카라 offensive behavior at Euro 2020 but schoolchildren were allowed inside Puskas Arena instead.
바카라I have no idea why people would choose to boo that gesture and very often young people can바카라t know why they바카라re doing it so they바카라re being influenced by older adults,바카라 Southgate said. 바카라Everyone knows what we believe and what we stand for.
바카라I hear that still in our stadiums as well. That바카라s why we do it and continue to take that stand and we will keep doing that as a team.바카라
England바카라s home game against Italy next weekend will also be played behind closed doors, at Molinuex, due to the behavior of its supporters at the Euro 2020 final loss to Italy a year ago.
The four group winners in League A will qualify for the final four in June next year, while the fourth-placed teams will drop down to League B. The group winners in the lower leagues gain promotion.
