Hungary may have lost their opening game of Euro 2024 as they were beaten 3-1 by Switzerland but one player caught the eye of fans.

Martin Adam, the Hungary No 9, entered the fray as a substitute in the 79th minute as he came on for Milos Kerkez.

The 29-year-old, who plays for South Korean side Ulsan HD, was described as an 'absolute unit' by fans. 

One fan wrote: 'The Hungary no.9 is a absolute unit.'

Another user commented that Adam looks more like a centre-back than a striker. They wrote: 'Hungary no.9 is the most centre back looking striker I’ve ever seen'.
