Euro 2016 Results: Group Scores, Highlights and Twitter Reaction from Tuesday

The final group at UEFA Euro 2016 got underway on Tuesday, as Group F began its tournament.

And the surprises came immediately, as Hungary shocked Austria and earned a victory, while Iceland earned a huge point against a shellshocked Portugal side.

Below, we'll break down the day's results and the top moments from Group F action.   

Hungary Beats Austria, 2-0

Austria came into Euro 2016 as a popular sleeper pick for many pundits. Hungary was supposed to just be happy to be back in the tournament for the first time since 1972. But the Hungarians flipped the script, opening Group F play in France with a 2-0 upset over Austria at Nouveau Stade de Bordeaux.

Adam Szalai and Zoltan Stieber scored second-half goals for Hungary, which conceded 52 percent of possession to Austria but equaled the favorite in shots (14 each) and put more on goal (7-3), per ESPN FC. The two sides also earned four corners apiece.

It was a historic win for Hungary, as TalkSport noted:

It was also an important win for this year's tournament, according to Roger Bennett of Men in Blazers:

Both sides had opportunities in the first half, though Austria came the closest, as David Alaba hit the post with a long shot from range just a minute into the game.

But it was Hungary that struck first in the 62nd minute. Adam Szalai and Laszlo Kleinheisler played a brilliant two-man game in the attack, sharing passes and breaking down the Austrian defense. Their final one-two freed Szalai behind the defense, and his sliding shot slipped past goalkeeper Robert Almer, giving Hungary the 1-0 lead.

While Austria was the favorite coming in, as Nick Ames of the Guardian noted, the goal didn't go against the run of play:

For Szalai, it was his first goal for club or country in 59 matches, dating back to December 12, 2014, per WhoScored.com.

It was Kleinheisler who created the opportunity with his incisive final pass, however, and who impressed Rory Smith of the Times of London throughout the course of the match:

Things went from bad to worse for Austria just four minutes later, as Aleksandar Dragovic received his second yellow card and left Austria down a man for the rest of the match.

And Hungary took advantage in the 87th minute, sealing the deal on the counterattack. Tamas Priskin gained control of the ball after an Austrian attack and found Stieber all alone down the right flank with a long pass. From there, Stieber showed excellent composure, lofting a cool floater over Almer to guarantee Hungary the three points.

Up next for Hungary will be a match against Iceland on Saturday in a matchup where it will be expected to at least earn a point. Doing so will be crucial, as its last group game will be against a tough Portugal side.

Austria, meanwhile, is now fighting for its tournament life. It'll be without Dragovic for its next game and possibly Zlatko Junuzovic as well after he left the match because of injury. That's troublesome, as the Austrians next face Group F favorites Portugal.

If it fails to take a point in that contest on Saturday, Austria could be in trouble. The Austrians are in danger of going from dark-horse contenders at this tournament to one of its biggest disappointments after Tuesday's surprising result.

Portugal and Iceland Draw, 1-1

Iceland's first-ever appearance at the Euros was a memorable one, as the nation shocked the world by drawing with Group F favorite Portugal at Stade Geoffroy-Guichard, 1-1. 

The Portuguese dominated the match, controlling 72 percent of the possession, outshooting Iceland 26-4 (9-4 on goal) and earning 11 corner kicks to just two for Iceland, per ESPN FC.

When Nani scored the game's first goal in the 31st minute—set up by a brilliant and precise low cross from Andre Gomes—Portugal seemed poised for an easy win. 

But Iceland wasn't interested in being brushed aside. Birkir Bjarnason slipped away from his marker in the box and volleyed home Johann Berg Gudmundsson's long cross, equalizing the game against the run of play.

It was a special moment and a special result for Iceland, as Ian Darke of ESPN noted:

Alejandro Moreno of ESPN credited the country's soccer program:

It was a much different feeling for Portugal after the match.

"There’s always difficulties in the first game," Portuguese manager Fernando Santos said after the contest, per UEFA Euro 2016 on Twitter. "We’ll bounce back to play [two] great matches."

He added, "We should have scored more; that’s no secret. There's no use crying over spilled milk."

The failed opportunities may end up being more than spilled milk, however. The Hungarians' victory over Austria means Portugal can't take them lightly, while the Austrians are still a talented side. Portugal will still be favored to advance to the knockout phase, but Tuesday's results made that process a lot trickier.

That point against the perceived top team in Group F gives Iceland a real chance of advancing to the knockout phase, meanwhile, especially after Austria—the team many people felt was one of the two strongest sides in the group—lost on Tuesday. 

Iceland, in other words, has hope. And that makes it dangerous.
