Germany had a comfortable if uninspiring 2-0 win over Hungary in its final warmup for the European Championship on Saturday. An own goal from Adam Lang toward the end of the first half and a poacher's effort from Thomas Mueller early in the second ensured the World Cup champions got back to winning ways following the 3-1 friendly defeat to Slovakia in Augsburg last weekend. Mario Goetze, who forced Lang to score at the wrong end, and Toni Kroos, an assured presence in midfield, both impressed for Germany.
