BUDAPEST: Hungary coach Marco Rossi was not sure his team would achieve much against world champions France in their Euro 2020 Group F match but after they came away with a 1-1 draw he wants them to spring a surprise against Germany as well.

After a heartbreaking late meltdown in Hungary’s first game on Tuesday which they lost 3-0 to defending champions Portugal, a team Rossi thought would be easier to face than France, the coach said he was happy for them to be the protagonists now.
