Szoboszlai picked the ball up in the 66th minute of the game, just to the right of the Montenegro penalty area, before driving into the 18 yard box. He did so with a cheeky nutmeg on the first defender he encountered and then sent another defender with a sly body-faint. Despite moving at a very fast speed, Szoboszlai always looked in control and composed as he fired the ball into the far corner of the net to draw his side level.

 

Only two minutes later, he was at it again. This time popping up on the left-hand side of the pitch, the midfielder played a clever one-two with his teammate to engineer a way into the box before once again composing himself and finding the top corner of the net, this time with his left foot.

The Hungary fans went wild inside the stadium as they realised they were back in the driving seat to win their group, irrespective of what was happening elsewhere.
