Barnabas Varga's father issues update after Hungary star undergoes surgery on facial fractures suffered in horror collision at Euro 2024

With an operation having taken place at a hospital in Stuttgart, Andras Varga gave an update to a Hungarian publication explaining that the family is now able to feel calmer about Barnabas' condition.

WHAT HAPPENED?

Varga was given lengthy treatment on the pitch following an accidental mid-air collision with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn. Hungary's football federation<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/barnabas-varga-surgery-facial-fracture-wont-play-again-euro-2024-hungary-collision-scotland/blt88e3b8ca9d62144a#cs17bb58d433a21a0f" target="_blank"> later confirmed</a> the striker had suffered a concussion and broken several bones in his face. His team-mates were visibly distressed as Varga lay on the turf, desperately urging stadium medics to react quicker, with captain Dominik Szobszlai in tears.

THE BIGGER PICTURE

"Together with my wife, we are waiting for the news that Barni's sweetheart will send us," Varga Sr. told <a href="https://www.nemzetisport.hu/foci-eb-2024/2024/06/varga-barnabas-edesapja-a-mutetet-vegrehajtottak" target="_blank">Nemzeti Sport</a>. The operation has been performed, Barni's sweetheart will provide information on our child's condition every minute if necessary."It is not yet known when he will be released from the hospital in Stuttgart, nor how long he will miss. It's no secret, the family went through difficult moments in front of the television screen, but now we can be calmer."

WHAT ANDRAS VARGA SAID

Having snatched victory against Scotland, Hungary face a nervous wait to see if their three points will be enough to earn a place in the knockout stage as one of the four best third-place group finishers. At Euro 2020, Ukraine got through with three points, but Finland and Slovakia both went home on goal difference with the same tally. If Hungary do make it through, Varga won't play again, but their campaign has suddenly taken on extra meaning as the squad unites behind their injured team-mate. Denmark reached the semi-finals three years ago off the back of losing Christian Eriksen to a life-threatening cardiac arrest.
