All Hungary need to do now to qualify for the finals is draw against Italy, who just beat England 1-0 at the San Siro. It is now mathematically impossible for Germany to qualify for the finals, and will now play a somewhat meaningless game against England, whose loss means relegation to League B.
Szalai's cheeky first-half goal was the difference between the two sides and Germany looked like a shadow of themselves against this Hungary team. Despite a wealth of attacking talent, Flick's side were poor in front of goal, especially in the first-half.
90' + 5' FULL-TIME: GERMANY 0-1 HUNGARY

Goal

The German national team have won each of their last 11 international matches played in Leipzig - in no other city have the national side ever had such a long winning streak in their history.
Gulacsi starts in goal tonight for Hungary, marking his 50th international appearance, while Kerkez makes his debut. The creativity in Hungary's attack will be left up to Szoboszlai as Roland Sallai misses out due to an eye injury.
Hofmann, who has a goal contribution in Germany's last three Nations League matches starts ahead of Ter Stegen. Werner is the German player with the most goals under Hansi Flick, so it is no surprise he has retained his place up top. Leon Goretzka and Manuel Neuer are not in the squad as the two tested positive for COVID-19 and left the German camp a couple of days ago.
