Hungary star Barnabas Varga is discharged from hospital and travels home with his girlfriend after surgery on broken face bones, while his team-mates await their Euros fate
Hungary star Barnabas Varga, who was taken to hospital after he suffered a sickening head injury during his side's Euro 2024 match against Scotland on Sunday, has been discharged from hospital.
The worrying incident occurred in the second half of the match, with the Hungary star being knocked immediately unconscious after clashing with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn as both players challenged for a long free kick.
Varga collided with the Scot and was sent falling to the turf where he was left prone on the ground, appearing to have suffered a concussion from the accidental collision. It was later revealed that the Hungary player had undergone surgery to fix multiple broken bones in his face.
In a statement on Twitter, the Hungarian Football Association wrote: 'Barnabas Varga was released from the Stuttgart hospital this morning and is currently recovering at home in Hungary.'
A picture of him leaving hospital alongside his girlfriend Laura Skrapits, was also shared online, with Ferencvarosi Torna Club writing: 'Barnabas Varga is back at home!'
The Hungarian football association added: 'Barnabas Varga continues to recover in Hungary!'
