DUSSELDORF, Germany : Germany's Jamal Musiala scored once and set up three more goals as they crushed visitors Hungary 5-0 on Saturday in a winning start to the Nations League competition.

The hosts took the lead in their Group A3 encounter with Niclas Fuellkrug's tap-in from midfielder Musiala assist following a good passing combination in the 27th minute.

With Hungary pushing for an equaliser, Musiala struck on the break in the 58th, completing a quick counter-attack from a visitors' corner.
