Brussels, Europe Brief News –The most recent Nations League campaign that England is participating in has gotten off to a poor start, and they desperately need a successful outcome on Tuesday.
After Gareth Southgate’s team fell to Hungary by a score of 1-0 in Budapest, they salvaged a 1-1 draw against Germany in Munich thanks to a late penalty kick from Harry Kane. This was Kane’s 50th goal at the senior international level, a feat that had only been accomplished for the Three Lions by Wayne Rooney in the past. Let’s review what went down in the England vs Hungary match.

For the first time since 1962, Hungary will try to win consecutive matches against the team that won the world championship in 1966. This will be a historic achievement for Hungary. This occurred during four consecutive triumphs, including a historic victory at Wembley in November 1953, when Nandor Hidegkuti scored a hat trick. Since then, no other player has been able to accomplish this feat in an away match against England.
