Dominik Szoboszlai scored twice in two minutes for Hungary as he aided his nation's 3-1 victory over Montenegro on Sunday.

The Reds midfielder helped turn the game around shortly after the hour mark, netting a brace to overcome Slobodan Rubezic's earlier opener at Puskas Arena.

Szoboszlai first finished low into the bottom corner of the goal having beaten several defenders into the penalty area, before scoring high into the net from close range after a Martin Adam pass to complete the comeback.
