It’s now or never for Scotland after Wednesday night’s draw kept their qualification hopes alive.
Scott McTominay’s early strike was cancelled out by Xherdan Shaqiri in the first half as both sides settled for a point in the end.
It means Scotland must now win the group finale over the pointless Hungarians to finish as one of the best third-placed sides.
Scotland started and finished the game well and could have nicked a priceless win towards the end.

But it was also ropey going the other way, with a back five that included Anthony Ralston, Jack Hendry, Grant Hanley and Scott McKenna finishing the game which was far from ideal.
Kieran Tierney’s absence is a massive blow and Clarke will need a special night to get beyond Hungary.
Hungary failed to do themselves justice in the 3-1 defeat to Switzerland in their opening game but were much better when going down 2-0 to Germany in midweek.
They need a lot to go their way to get out the group, including securing a win themselves here.
Prices from William Hill and are correct at the time of publishing though subject to change.
Both sides desperately, desperately need the win. Sadly for both, it could be that neither gets what they want.
Just as was predicted on SunSport in Scotland’s midweek game, this game has a draw written all over it.
Scotland lack a decent striker and are suspect at the back. But there’s enough in them to get goals, similarly to the Hungarians.
Scott McTominay’s strike was a big one for Scotland in midweek.
It also kept up the incredible trend of Scottish players with ‘Mc’ in their names being the only scorers in the history at this level.
McClair, McStay, McAllister and McCoist were added to by Callum McGregor at the last Euros and now Scott McTominay here. That could continue.
