UEFA says there was “no delay” in providing treatment to Hungary’s Barnabas Varga during their Euro 2024 match against Scotland following criticism.
Hungary players quickly signalled the 29-year-old Ferencvaros forward was in trouble after his collision with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn and, after six minutes of treatment, Varga was carried off the field on a stretcher while sheets were held up to shield him from view.
