HUNGARY forward Barnabas Varga has been pictured for the first time since he was knocked unconscious and broke multiple bones in his face during his side's win over Scotland.
The Ferencvaros star, 29, was severely injured in a collision with keeper Angus Gunn during the Group A decider on Sunday night.
He was stretchered off with sheets held up to hide Varga, before medics rushed him to hospital.
He was then confirmed to be stable and has now been pictured in a hospital bed with his girlfriend Laura Skrapits and members of the Hungary backroom staff.
It comes after Laura shared an emotional message on social media on Varga's behalf.
It read: "Thank you for your kind, supportive messages.
"Barni is over the surgery. A little rest is waiting for him but he'll be fine!"
Ferencvaros doctor Gergely Panics confirmed the extent of Varga's injuries after he was assessed in hospital, revealing he suffered skull fractures, as well as broken and dislocated bones in his face.
He told Hungarian news outlet Magyar Nemzet: "Barni suffered a concussion during the collision and lost consciousness.
"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."
