Despite a lackluster game for most of the match, Csoboth’s goal in the 100th minute sealed the win for Hungary.
The victory gives Hungary a chance to advance to the knockout stages of the tournament as one of the best third-placed teams in the group stage.
On the other hand, Scotland’s hopes were dashed once again as they exited in the group stage for the 12th time without reaching the knockout rounds.
The game started off slow with Scotland dominating possession but failing to break through Hungary defense. The only real chance came when Willi Orban hit the crossbar with a header from a free kick just before halftime.
In the second half, both teams upped their attacking efforts, with Hungary creating more opportunities and eventually scoring through Csoboth after an intense period of play.
The match saw some controversial moments, including a possible penalty denied for Scotland and a serious injury to Barnabas Varga.
Both teams made tactical changes and pushed forward aggressively in search of goals, leading to an exciting end to the game that ultimately favored Hungary.
