Varga writes fairy tales
From the Austrian lower house to a European Championship goalscorer
Soccer writes the best stories! The Hungarian Barnabás Varga once played for the Burgenland lower league club SV Eberau and can now call himself a European Championship goalscorer.
Born in Szombathely, the 29-year-old striker has an interesting CV from an Austrian perspective. He started playing for SV Eberau at the age of 15 and moved to SV Mattersburg six years later, where he also played in the Bundesliga.
20 goals in 24 games for top Hungarian club
He finally made his breakthrough at Gyirmot, Paks and Ferencváros in the Hungarian league and Varga became a key player. He scored 20 goals in 24 games for Ferencváros last season. Reason enough for Hungarian team boss Marco Rossi to nominate him for the national team and the EURO this year.
Varga's goal against Switzerland in the closing stages of the game to make it 2-1 gave his team hope. 14 years after the start of his career in Burgenland's lower house - you could call it a soccer fairytale.
