I have difficulties understanding the hydrogen transfer in the image above. I always thought that hydrogen transfers followed the following formula:

$$\ce{X^. + H-Y -> X-H + Y^.}$$

I can't really see the connection between the picture and the formula. Is it the whole ethanol group that is transferred?
