Hungary can still hope to advance to the knockout round as one of the four best third-placed teams in the group. The former Austrian legionnaire, who played for Mattersburg and Lafnitz, among others, fell in the fray in the penalty area on Sunday in Stuttgart after a free kick cross and remained lying motionless on the pitch. His worried teammates immediately called for help and carefully moved him to the side. He was eventually carried off the pitch on a stretcher with cloths to shield him from view.
