Barnabas Varga’s doctor has offered his assessment of the forward’s condition after he was involved in a sickening collision in Hungary’s clash with Scotland on Monday.

With the game goalless and both teams hunting for an opener, Varga collided with Scotland goalkeeper Angus Gunn as he attempted to collect the ball.

The severity of the 29-year-old’s injury was immediately made apparent back the reaction of his teammates, as they motioned medical staff onto the pitch.

Varga lay motionless on the ground as he received medical attention, and the game was paused for seven minutes before he was removed from the pitch on a stretcher and rushed to hospital in Stuttgart.

Hungary head coach Marco Rossi noted in his post-match press conference that Varga was stable and conscious in hospital.

Varga’s wife, 27-year-old beautician Laura Skrapits, witnessed her husband’s horrific injury from the stands having travelled to Germany to support her partner and the national team’s European campaign alongside other Hungarian WAGs.

According to a report from Hungarian outlet Magyar Nemzet, Varga was today visited in hospital by Gergely Panics, the team doctor for his club side Ferencvaros.

‘Barni suffered a concussion during the collision and lost consciousness.’ Panics revealed.

‘By the time he reached the ambulance, he had already regained consciousness, after which he was taken to the clinic in Stuttgart, where, after the examination, a therapeutic plan was drawn up, according to which he would be operated on.

‘Our striker suffered multiple facial skull fractures, several smaller and larger bones were broken in his face, and some were even dislocated.

‘After the operation, he will be kept in for two days. If everything goes well, he will be released on Wednesday.’

In the aftermath of the incident, Dominik Szoboszlai criticised the medial staff at the game for the time it took them to attend to Varga.

Asked his view on the medical team’s actions on the pitch Panics refused to comment.

‘Regarding the German protocol and first aid, I do not want to comment, as I do not know it in detail and I am not responsible for it.’ He said.

‘However, I can say that I had the opportunity to visit Barna in the hospital, and I saw that she is in expert hands and is receiving a lot of attention.’

With a goalless draw likely to see both teams eliminated from the tournament, Kevin Csoboth finished off a counter attack deep into stoppage-time to fire Hungary to victory and give them a chance at progressing from Group A.

Varga’s beautician wife Laura Skrapits watched on in horror at the Stuttgart Arena throughout the ordeal on the pitch.

The pair met in their home village of Szentpeterfa in Hungary, though they now live in Budapest where Ferencvaros is based.

Varga and Skrapits had previously kept their personal life guarded from fans, but in the wake of last night’s incident Laura made her social media profile public amid the flurry of well-wishes and shared several snaps of the pair’s adventures together.

In an earlier interview with Goal.com, Varga said their relationship: ‘We have known each other [for a long time], which is the most natural thing there, everyone in the village knows everyone.

‘My partner’s parents live a few hundred metres from mine. We can walk to them.

‘I like being here, I feel that once I stop playing football, I will move back to Szentpeterfa.’

After crticism from Varga’s team-mate Dominik Szoboszlai, UEFA have insisted that there wasn’t any delay in the treatment to the stricken player.

UEFA stated that the team doctor intervened within 15 seconds of the incident occurring, with the pitchside emergency team being called upon as soon as they were requested.

A statement from UEFA read: ‘With regards to the medical intervention following the head injury suffered by Barnabas Varga of Hungary, we would like to clarify that the intervention of the team doctor happened within 15 seconds of the incident, followed immediately by the second stadium doctor, to conduct a first assessment of the injury and provide appropriate treatment, as per customary medical procedures.’
