Euro 2016 Playoffs: Hungary vs. Norway 2nd Leg Score and Reaction

Hungary became the first team to book their place at Euro 2016 via the play-offs after defeating Norway 2-1 on Sunday evening to complete a 3-1 aggregate victory thanks to a Tamas Priskin wonder strike and Markus Henriksen's own goal.

Budapest's Groupama Arena was sent into raptures after Priskin opened Sunday's scoring from range to help cement Hungary's place at what will be their first European Championship finals since 1972.

Even Hovland came closest to scoring for Norway after heading a Martin Odegaard corner against the post on the stroke of half-time, but Per Mathias Hogmo's men were unable to overcome their deficit.
