Liverpool midfielder Dominik Szoboszlai set a new record when his side opened the European Championship on Saturday afternoon.
After hosts Germany dismantled a poor Scotland team on Friday night, all eyes will be on their group rivals as Hungary and Switzerland go head-to-head on Saturday afternoon.
In front of a packed audience in Cologne, the Swiss took the lead after just 12 minutes when Kwadwo Duah hit an offside trap to close the gap.
That lead was doubled when Michel Aebischer scored in the 45th minute before Hungary pulled one back through Barnabas Varga.
Switzerland then sealed victory in extra time thanks to substitute Breel Embolo, which put them top of the group with Germany.
But even though he lost, Szoboszlai from Hungary will remember this day as he became the youngest captain in the history of this tournament at the age of 23 years and seven months.

The midfielder arrived at Anfield last summer after completing a move from RB Leipzig and hit the ground running, quickly becoming a fan favourite.
Despite a dip in form at the end of the season, the Hungarian captain is regarded as the future of the team and is determined to prove this during the rest of the tournament.
