Ten-man England slumped to a dismal 4-0 defeat at the hands of Hungary in their UEFA Nations League clash at Molineux. A double from Roland Sallai and late efforts from Zsolt Nagy and Daniel Gazdag condemned Gareth Southgate’s side to a hefty loss and their fourth game without a win in Group A3 of the competition.
To compound the hosts’ misery, defender John Stones was sent off for a second bookable offence eight minutes from time. It was also a humiliating night for European champions Italy, who were thrashed 5-2 by Germany in Monchengladbach.
Joshua Kimmich began the rout after 10 minutes before an Ilkay Gundogan penalty, a Thomas Muller effort and a quickfire double from Chelsea’s Timo Werner.
Italy’s consolations came from Wilfried Gnonto and Alessandro Bastoni. The results put Hungary top of the group, a point ahead of Germany and two above Italy, with England three points adrift at the bottom.
