Scotland could be on the brink of history at Euro 2024 as they wait to face Hungary in the final round of group games in Group A.
Steve Clarke’s side know a win would take them to four points, and with the four best-performing third-placed teams qualifying for the last 16, victory against Hungary may well be enough to secure a place in the round of 16.
Hungary, who sit bottom of Group A on zero points, know themselves that a win would give them a slim chance of making the next round, despite bruising defeats to Switzerland and hosts Germany.
So, with both teams knowing that nothing but a win will do, expect fireworks in Stuttgart as both sides look to stake their claim to a place in the last 16 at Euro 2024.
Follow the score and all the latest updates from Scotland v Hungary below – plus the key events and reaction to Germany v Switzerland in the other game in Group A:
28’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
A second yellow card for Hungary, this time it’s Willi Orban who clattered through his man.
Another set piece is poor, this time Gilmour’s, and Hungary’s quick counter ends in a corner, Ralston deflecting Kerkez’s cross behind. Takes a couple of attempts but Scotland clear it.

24’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Kerkez hauls down McGinn after a poor attempted clearance and it’s a free-kick, right channel again. Decent chance for a more dangerous delivery this time and the captain stands over it – Robertson’s ball is cleared by the first man. Poor effort.
Not too much yet from McTominay, in or outside the box. Scotland really want to get him more involved, either in the build-up play or just pushing forward along and beyond Adams.

20’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Bolla makes a smart run behind the defence but McKenna recovers well to cut out the pass and halt the danger. Scotland not yet really able to threaten Gulacsi; Hungary have mostly been without the ball in this first 20 minutes but they have had one or two moments on the break or with that earlier long shot.
All very cagey and tense, as you’d expect. Good play by Gilmour initially and then by McGinn, both in the right channel, but the latter’s eventual cross is overhit and out.

16’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Goal in the other game – Germany lead Switzerland thanks to a first international goal by Robert Andrich. Except..it’s not. Ruled out after a VAR check for a foul by Musiala before Andrich took the shot, which was a rasper from range. Still 0-0 then!
Meanwhile Styles has gone through the back of McGregor and the Hungarian is immediately booked.

12’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Decent early ball retention from the Scots, not really overcommitting numbers forward but gently progressing while keeping the door locked at the same time.
A decision goes against Hendry and he reacts angrily – the ref is having none of that and bellows at him to come and have a word.
Tonight’s official is Facundo Tello, an Argentinian. Why? Read on to find out…

How a forgotten disco hit became the Tartan Army’s anthem
What do you get when you combine a stag do in Shoreditch, a veteran Aberdeen defender in drag, and a 1970s disco hit by the Spanish duo Baccara? The answer is the sound of another summer of international football, and the unlikely anthem of the Tartan Army’s adventures at Euro 2024 in Germany.

8’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Dardai clatters into McTominay and Scotland have won a succession of early challenges and set pieces. One such delivery is nodded on toward Adams – it needs a good defensive interception to stop the chance on goal. Then it’s a quick break and a long-range shot from Sallai, which bounces in front of Gunn and forces him into an awkward save!

4’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
We’ll be keeping you posted on updates from the Switzerland vs Germany game of course, but our primary focus is this one – this is the one which matters.
It’s ferocious and fierce in midfield already, both sides throwing in some big tackles and keeping each other honest. Promising possession for Scotland in the opening stages, Gilmour getting on the ball plenty.

1’ – Scotland 0-0 Hungary
Two Liverpool players contest the toss, Andy Robertson and Dominik Szoboszlai the captains of their respective nations.
Hungary get us underway and…errr, the referee calls it back. False start, he’s unhappy too many were in the opposition half. Give it a rest! Back underway once more.

Scotland vs Hungary LIVE
“We know what the stakes are. We have to win. But we have to win with caution.”
A clear message from Clarke ahead of kick-off – and now it’s a mighty rendition of Flower of Scotland!
Belted out from all parts of the stadium.
A huge night in store – kick-off is next!
