Felix Nmecha had given the visitors the lead in the 76th minute, but Dominik Szoboszlai equalised in the 99th minute from a contr𝔉oversially given penalty for an alleged handball by Robin Koch.

Nagelsm💮ann's side had also had a Leroy Sane go𒀰al disallowed by VAR before Kai Havertz struck the post moments after coming off the bench.

While the result of the match had n൩o bearing on the standings – Germany had already secured top spot with a game to spare – it did end a three-game winning run.

Germany have now scored in their last 12 matches, inc🐻luding friendlies, but Nagelsmann was still left frus🐬trated by the disjointed nature of their performance in Budapest.

"To be honest, I don't really ♕want to talk about the game. I think we can do things better," he told ZDF.

"𒈔;We♑ took too long in the first half to get things together, partly especially in the twenty minutes before the break."

On the penalty dec🌟i𒈔sion, Nagelsmann said: "I spoke to the referee after the game and asked if he also saw the game against Spain [at the Euros]. I don't think he understood what I said.

"♊I don't think it was a penalty at all. [Robin] Koch turns away from the shot and draws his hands closer to his body."
