    A roar of frustration from the home fans, they think Ruben Dias has brought down Roland Sallai. The referee keeps his nerve and waves play on.

    Hungary 0-0 Portugal

    Full-blooded challenges from both sides in these early stages. All 22 players are putting their all into it, no doubt feeding off the energy from the crowd.

    Cracking start to the game.

  3. CLOSE!published at 5 mins

    Hungary 0-0 Portugal

    Oof! A stinger as Diogo Jota runs onto a through ball and thumps a powerful effort at goal but it is straight at the goalkeeper.

    Cristiano Ronaldo won't be happy, he was in loads of space to Jota's left. The pass was definitely the better option.

    Unbelievable being in a full stadium again here in Budapest. A real attack on the senses. The noise in the ground in deafening when the fans whistle. Amazing atmosphere. Pretty surreal to look at all the red shirts in the seats after the last 16 months we’ve had.

    Hungary 0-0 Portugal

    Plenty of possession from Portugal in these early stages. Cristiano Ronaldo's first touch sees him win a throw and that prompts a roar from the supporters in the stands.

    Ronaldo has a wry smile on his face. He'll be loving playing in front of a huge crowd again, even if they are not all cheering for him.

    What an atmosphere.

    If you can't be inspired by this, you won't be inspired by anything. What an opportunity for the Hungarian players.

    Mark Willis: How is Pepe still playing at 38?! Still with his red card record, he's not likely to be on for the full 90 minutes!

    Hungary you have to think that they have to sit in, have to be difficult to beat and have to play on the counter attack.

    Set pieces are going to be absolutely key. From Portugal's point of view, with this group there is a risk if they're not at it today.

    But you look at their team and they have strength and depth right through it and they have Ronaldo of course. He's the player that will lift the Portuguese team.

    The city helped produce one of the most talented generations the world has witnessed. It had a hand in the formation of the European Cup. Its coffee houses played host to the game's early deep-thinking tacticians.

    Budapest may not be the hotbed for budding footballers and coaches it once was, but the Hungarian capital is set to be showcased on the international stage once more as it hosts four games at the European Championship.

    Under Italian coach Marco Rossi, the former Brescia and Sampdoria defender, the Magyars are experiencing a revival - though progress will be tough, given they have been drawn in a daunting group that also includes Germany.

    But no matter whether Hungary make it into the knockout stages, this homecoming offers fans in Budapest a chance to enjoy a footballing renaissance.

  17. Hungary to hold the reigning champions?published at 16:47 British Summer Time 15 June 2021

    Mark Lawrenson
    BBC football expert

    Hungary were in the same group as Portugal at Euro 2016 and ended up topping it after a thrilling 3-3 draw with the eventual tournament winners.

    There is no chance Hungary will finish top of Group F and, on paper, this talented Portugal side should have too much for them - but the game is being played in Budapest, so I am going to go with a draw.

    Lawro's prediction: 1-1
