On Saturday 12 March 2022, Luxembourg's national men's rugby team overcame Hungary in a game played in the fourth tier of European rugby at the Stade de Luxembourg.
The match was played within the Conference 1 North of Rugby Europe which comprises the Czech Republic, Hungary, Latvia, Luxembourg and Sweden; Luxembourg went into this game sitting in 4th place in the five-team division having lost their first two matches (at home to the Czech Republic 12-39, and away to Sweden 51-5).
Luxembourg ran out 30-23 winners, scoring three converted ties and three penalties, against two converted tries and three penalties by the visitors.
