Euro 2024: Alan Shearer has sympathy with Scotland after 'clear penalty' not given in Hungary loss

Hungary's Willi Orban challenghes Scotland''s Stuart Armstrong during the teams' Group A clash at Euro 2024.

Former England striker and Euro 2024 pundit Alan Shearer expressed his sympathy for eliminated Scotland after they were denied a penalty during their late 1-0 defeat to Hungary.

Scotland came into the game knowing that only a win was likely to be enough to give them a chance of going through to their first-ever knockout stage at a major tournament, and even then only as one of the best third-place sides. A draw to stay third kept that possibility on the table, but still only as a slim chance.
