Liverpool’s Dominik Szoboszlai netted a late penalty for Hungary on Tuesday night in UEFA Nations League action.

The Reds’ No.8 struck from the spot to earn a dramatic 1-1 draw with Germany at Puskas Arena, with the midfielder scoring in the ninth minute of added time.

Already assured of a place in the quarter-finals, and even top of the group from matchday five four days ago, Germany arrived at Hungary in a relaxed mood.

Not unexpectedly, the opening forty-five minutes of the game at Puskas Arena were rather boring. Despite having several offensive opportunities, the home team was unable to do anything against the visitors’ formidable defense.

Germany’s performance didn’t improve until coach Nagelsmann substituted important attackers like Florian Wirtz, Jamal Musiala, and Kai Havertz in the second half.

Nico Schlotterbeck headed the ball after Florian Wirtz’s corner kick in the 76th minute, but goalie Denes Dibusz stopped it.

Felix Nmecha opened the scoring for the German squad with a fast finish near the goal, as if he had been waiting for it.

Hungary tried hard to attack in search of an equalizer and in the 90+9 minute of injury time, the home team was awarded a penalty after VAR determined that Robin Koch handled the ball in the penalty area.

On the 11m mark, Dominik Szoboszlai successfully executed the free kick, equalizing 1-1 for the home team at Puskas Arena.

Holding the German championship candidate, Hungary could not improve their ranking. They were satisfied with third place in Group 3 League A, only having to play the play-off to compete for relegation.
