There's a huge twist in the battle for Round of 16 in Group F, as Hungary stunned world champions France and held them to a 1-1 draw at the Puskas Stadium on Saturday night.

Attila Fiola sent shockwaves when he put Hungary ahead just before halftime. He is the first player to score against France across all competitions in the last six games.

It looked like Hungary would pull off the upset of the tournament but Antoine Griezmann scored an equaliser in the 66th minute. His 38th goal for the national side in 93 outings, helped France rescue a point as the World Champions remain unbeaten to go top of Group F.
