Muller on target as Germany ease to victory over Hungary

Thomas Muller was on the scoresheet as Germany defeated Hungary 2-0 in their final warm-up game before Euro 2016.

The Bayern Munich forward scored his 32nd international goal in the second half after an own goal by Hungary's Adam Lang had given the world champions the lead.

Julian Draxler had found the net after 52 seconds but was wrongly flagged as off-side as the Germans returned to winning ways after their shock defeat to Slovakia last weekend.

It was an uninspiring performance from Joachim Low's men against Hungary, although skipper Bastian Schweinsteiger came off the bench in a bid to get match fit for the tournament, having not played for Manchester United since March.

But the Euro 1996 winners will need to be more sharper when they face Ukraine in their opening group game of the tournament on June 12th.

Do the Germans look like contenders to win Euro 2016? They have lost three out of their last five games and experienced players like Manuel Neuer, Mats Hummels and Bastian Schweinsteiger all look either in patchy form or are dogged by injury. Against Hungary, the team lacked width and their more pacey players like Leroy Sane and Emre Can came off the bench. But come tournament time, with the Germans you never know...

Thomas Muller (Germany): In a game of few standout performers, the forward showed his class with a good effort in the first half, producing a fine save. And the Bayern Munich man underlined his poacher's instincts by grabbing the rebound from Mario Gomez's header to find the net.

Germany: Neuer 6, Hector 6, Höwedes 5, Khedira 5, Özil 5, Draxler 5, Müller 7, Rüdiger 6, Boateng 6, Kroos 5, Götze 5. Subs: Can 5, Gomez 6, Schurrle 5, Sane 5, Schweinsteiger 5, Podolski 4.

Hungary: Kiraly 6, Kadar 5, Fiola 4, Guzmics 5, Lang 4, Nagy 5, Pinter 6, Dzsudzsak 7, Kleinheisler 5, Lovrencsics 5, Szalai 6. Subs: Gera 5, Priskin 4, Bese 4, Steiber 4.

1' - GOAL RULED OUT: Gotze whips the ball across goal and Draxler is there to tap it into an empty net after 56 seconds at the far post. But it is ruled out for off-side - a horrendous decision as the Wolfsburg man was about three yards on side.

10 - MULLER EFFORT: Good save! Muller with a trademark drive near the 18 yard box that the keeper does well to tip around the post.

11' - RUDIGER MISS! The Roms defender misses the target with a diving header from about six yards out following Ozil's corner. He will not want to see the replay of that chance.

39' - OWN GOAL! Germany 1-0 Hungary: Hector's low cross comes off Lang for an own goal under pressure from Gotze. The Bayern man is celebrating though but it struck the defender last.

63' - GOAL! Germany 2-0 Hungary: Gotze's header is parried and Muller slides in at the back post to score his 32nd international goal.

The Hungarians lost for only the second time in their last 12 games ahead of their first major tournament since the 1986 World Cup.
