EURO 2020: Luck Favors Portugal, but Hungary Leaves Pitch with Heads Held High
Hungary put on a great performance against reigning European champion Portugal. The grit and determination shown by the national team was worthy of a draw. But Fate had a different scenario in mind: although the match was still a stalemate in the 84th minute, by the final whistle, Portugal scored three goals and Cristiano Ronaldo celebrated another record.
The “Group of Death” is how this European Championship’s Group F has been labeled. It sounds quite ominous, and it sounds even more terrifying when you are the only team there which is not a football predator. Fate was not on the Hungarians’ side, as defending world champion France, defending European champion Portugal, and the winner of the previous World Cup, Germany, were all drawn to this group.
