BUDAPEST (Reuters) - World champions France struggled to impose themselves in their 1-1 Euro 2020 draw against Hungary on Saturday in part due to facing a hostile crowd for the first time in months, goalscorer Antoine Griezmann said.

France rescued a point after Griezmann cancelled out Attila Fiola's first half strike in front of a loud, 65,000-strong crowd at the Puskas Arena - one of the biggest at a game in Europe since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
