In the early morning of the 24th, the third round of Group A of the European Cup was over, and Hungary won the hope of qualifying for the group after "lore" Scotland 1-0. And the thrilling scene that happened in the game made fans in the country and even the world feel even more worried. Striker Walgaard, who wore the number 19 shirt, fell unconscious after colliding with opposition goalkeeper Gunn during an attack.

In the case of the stretcher's delay in entering the field, the Hungarian captain Szoboslo ran directly to help carry the equipment to enter the stadium to get his teammates rescued as soon as possible. Eventually, thanks to the efforts of all the medical team, Walgao is out of danger for the time being, will undergo facial surgery, and will miss the rest of the team's games (if he advances).

Born in 1994, Volgao currently plays for Hungarian domestic powerhouse Ferencvaros FC, and has just ended the season with 29 goals in 40 appearances for the team in all competitions, which can be described as excellent form. Because of this, he was selected for the national team for the first time in August last year, and he became the team's main center forward in this European Championship, and he is an important support for Hungary to destroy the city. He scored the team's goal in the first round of the 1-3 defeat to Switzerland.

This match is a "battle of life and death" for Hungary and Scotland, and whoever can win will be one step closer to qualifying. That's why Walgao and his teammates are doing their best to get a win. The accident occurred in the 68th minute of the game, when he collided with Scottish goalkeeper Gunn in the process of competing for high balls, and due to a heavy blow to the head, Walgaard immediately fell to the ground unconscious, and even showed symptoms of stiffness and convulsions. Although the Hungarian and Scottish players in the field were very anxious when they saw this, the stretcher did not enter the field for a long time. Hungarian captain Szobosloy, who was afraid of delaying his teammates' precious treatment time, ran directly over and quickly entered the field with a stretcher, and this scene was also recorded by the broadcast camera.

Just like when the Danish team Eriksen had an accident three years ago, in order to protect Walgao's privacy from being affected, and also to facilitate emergency treatment on the spot, the medical team carried out some fencing treatment in the area where he fell, and after simple treatment, Walgao was immediately sent to the hospital for further treatment. In order to show his support for his teammates, the Hungarian captain Szobosloy, who won after the game, held up the number 19 shirt of Walgao to show his name, and then wore it on his body and took a photo with his teammates to pray for the injured Walgao.

After the game, Hungary coach Marco Rossi explained his situation in an interview: "Volgao is not in danger of his life, he has a fracture in his face, he will undergo an operation, he will not play for the rest of this European Championship. Previously, the Hungarian Football Association also issued an official announcement confirming that Volgao was immediately sent to the local hospital in Stuttgart after leaving the field, and the striker from Ferencvaros is currently in stable condition, and they will announce it as soon as there is any new news.

"Football is not above life", when there is a hidden danger or problem with the safety of a player, you should do your best to race against life with your teammates and medical team, like Szobosloy.
