  • 95'
    FT: Hungary 1-0 England!! All over in Budapest and England start off their Nations League campaign with a loss. Szoboszlai's highly controversial 66th minute penalty was the difference. England never really looked like scoring, not even at 1-0 down. Hungary looked more up for it, but I think 0-0 would've been a fairer outcome. Thanks for joining us and see you again soon!
  • 95'
    Hungary get a corner and I think they'll run out the clock here.
  • 93'
    England attack, but nothing comes of it. Maguire also has his name taken as does James. Two quick cards.
  • 92'
    England don't look like scoring here at all.
  • 90'
    Five added minutes.
  • 89'
    Kane!!! Grealish passes to Kane, who gets a bit of luck off the defender, but it goes off target.
  • 88'
    Hungary double sub: Z Nagy and Szalai are replaced by Vecsei and Adam.
  • 82'
    Hungary double sub: Styles is on for A Nagy and Fiola on for Szoboslai.
  • 78'
    England sub: Phillips on for Coady.
  • 77'
    Coady!!! James' free-kick is headed by Coady and it goes wide.
  • 76'
    England are trying to get an equaliser here, but Hungary are holding firm.
  • 73'
    Bellingham has a shot and it's deflected away to safety.

  • 66'
    Szoboslai puts Hungary ahead!!! He hits the ball to Pickford's right and the GK can't quite reach it!
  • 65'
    Hungary have been given a penalty here!! England aren't happy with the decision. James is perplexed. Z Nagy goes down under contact from James, but that's incredibly soft...
  • 62'
    England triple sub: Grealish, Stones and James are on for Walker, Mount and TAA.
  • 61'
    It's definitely a more open second half.
  • 59'
    Bowen hits one from distance and the ball flies over!
  • 58'
    Chance for England as Mount is given the ball by Kane on the counter and Lang deflects it for a corner.
  • 55'
    The ball strikes Maguire's arm, but it's no penalty. Good decision by Soares Dias.
  • 52'
    Szalai is caught by Coady and the Wolves man has his name taken.
  • 51'
    Saka!!! A superb run by the subsititute sees him get into the area and Gulacsi makes the stop!
  • 49'
    Z Nagy!! A ball forward is headed back by Szoboszlai and the strike goes wide of Pickford's left hand post!
  • 48'
    Hungary attack, but it comes to nothing.
  • 46'
    Back underway in this one!
  • 45'
    England HT sub: Justin is replaced by Saka.
  • 45'
    HT: Hungary 0-0 England! No goals in Budapest and it's a very fair score. England started better and had more possession and territory, but Hungary have been a threat going forward. In fact, they finished the half well and have had the best chance when Coady cleared off the line to deny Szoboslai while Szalai nearly scored from halfway later on. What will happen in the second 45? Back for more shortly!
  • 45'
    One extra minute.
  • 45'
    England have weathered the storm and are now passing the ball around waiting for the interval.
  • 42'
    Little to report in the last few minutes and this looks it will be goalless at the interval.
  • 38'
    Maguire gets an England corner.
  • 37'
    Another dangerous Hungary attack as L Nego puts a ball into the back post, but Sbozoslai can't turn it home!
  • 33'
    Good play by Bowen as he gets past a defender and into the box, but the cutback for Kane is cleared by an opponent.
  • 32'
    Szalai!!! He goes for goal from inside the centre-circle as Pickford is miles off his line and the ball flies narrowly wide!! Another close shave!
  • 31'
    Szoboszlai believes he has won another corner, but the flag is up for offside. Close, but I think just off.
  • 29'
    Hungary threaten through Z Nagy and Pickford has to turn the long range strike around the post for a corner!
  • 25'
    Justin has pulled a muscle and he is getting treatment here. He's carrying on though.
  • 24'
    Hungary get themselves a corner now.
  • 23'
    Sallai's cross into the box and it's cleared. England are having more possession and territory, but Hungary are definitely more dangerous.
  • 22'
    The free-kick is a very poor one.

  • 12'
    Off the line by Coady!!! Hungary go forward, the cross finds Szoboslai in the middle, Pickford comes out and the Hungarian toe-pokes it past him, but the lack of power on it sees Coady get back to clear!
  • 11'
    Bowen!! TAA finds Bowen around the penalty spot and he can't connect cleanly! Easy for the goalie.
