I met with Ferenc Puskás once in my life on a train station in Budapest - Keleti. I am Hungarian, and I was about 22 on that time. He asked: Hey, my son, do you play football? I told: yes, of course uncle Feri! He sad: It is very god, very-very good my sons... Always play football, always... :)
That's a Great story....Thanks for sharing it....Love from India 🇮🇳 Kolkata to you and entire people of Hungary 🇭🇺
Lucky You Are...
I guess im asking the wrong place but does someone know of a method to get back into an instagram account?
I stupidly lost my login password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me.
@Isaac Corey instablaster =)
We share the first name. I'm born Hungarian as well but I've been living in Germany for most of my life
My late Grandfather used to talk about the Hungary team of the 50s all the time!..said they were the best team he'd ever seen .
my father played for that golden program from the ages of 11 until 18 (until the revolution in 56). When I was 17, I was invited to join my country's national team (no surprise there)....
The most beautiful team of history !
Thank you!
The final of the 1954 Soccer World Cup was played on July 4 at the Wankdorfstadion in the city of Bern, Switzerland. The party is also known as the Miracle of Bern. The two winners of the semi-final matches, West Germany and Hungary, meet in a single 90-minute match. Against all problems, West Germany defeated Hungary 3: 2 and became World Champion for the first time in its history.
West Germany's victory sparked jubilation there, nine years after the end of World War II. This sporting event helped the German economic miracle that saw the rise of the Federal Republic of Germany, in addition to increasing the nationalist spirit and self-esteem in that country.
1970 Brazil
This and 1974 Netherlands.
I am Hungarian and I have to say a huge thanks to english football experts remembering for the Golden Team. :D
They are legends of the game, dont worry. Puskas is a football icon up there with the very best ever.
hunkyfunkyjunky I am Belgian but for ever Puskas is my heroe with Pele.The Hungarian team has the Best game ever .Before the Brazilian team 1970
Any person who knows football knows that Hungary in the 50's goes down as one of the greatest teams in football history.
respect for the Hungarians from Pakistan. hope hungary can rise on day again and win the world cup. all the best :)
Hussain Sajid Thank you in the name of Hungary. I hope too it will happen someday :)
As a Brazilian passionate about football, I cried with this story of this brave man, who brought this beautiful art to us all!
As a Hungarian, always enjoyed the Brazilian football. If there's no Hungarian team to support, it's self-evidence to me, as an ex-player, to support Brazil. Especially against Argentina, the Germans of the South American Footbal Woeld.
@@hansenmax2133 my team Flamengo is doing very well, we are in the finals of Libertadores and Brazilian cup, root for us friend, we want to be world champion this year!
It’s sad to see such a great team to not win the world cup. Great Respect from Albania!
Thnx I'm Hungarian
It is, indeed an unhealed wound still... Thanks for your words! Greetings from Hungary!
Sorry! Greetings from 🇩🇪 😁
Not an issue. They never maked this kind of movie for that cheater winner. But Hungarian Golden team will live through as basic curiculum in the trainer schools, and as the one of the best team ever existed. This is more than just trophy.
Yes they choked hard in their two trips to the finals.
I am old enough to remember that wonderful team that destroyed England back in 1953. I fell instantly in love with that team, in particular, the incomparable Ferenc Puskas. I was fortunate enough to visit Budapest, and was awestruck by the place. No attempt had been made to remove the signs of the 1956 invasion by the Russians. Shell marks were still in evidence on the walls of many buildings. Magical Magyars.
I’ve seen the bullet holes in Budapest, too. Solemn.
Too bad no one mentioned the influence the Hungarians had on Brazilian football in the 1950s... One of the coaches of the Hungarian Hónved team, Bela Guttman, coached São Paulo FC in the 1950s and popularized in Brazil the 4-2-4 formation used by the Hungary Golden Team... later used to great success by the Brazilian teams of 1958 and 1962.
well it is a significant system
Thanks for the information.
it is mention in brazil 58 62 documentary
Bella Guttman won 2 European Cups with SLBenfica beating Barcelona wich had Kocsis and Czibor and Real Madrid wich had Puskas.He has a Statue in SLBenfica Stadium and he's a legend for SLBenfica fans.We also had an Hungarian player Miklos Feher die in the pitch and he has a metal bust in the Stadium and the number 29 shirt was retired.
Bella Guttman was so good that he had a wall when he trained São Paulo, he draw several squares on the wall and he demanded the São Paulo's players to hit the ball on each square, he wouldn't release any player of shooting the ball until each one of them hit the right spot of each square, São Paulo's players became so good in passing the ball, they hardly ever had a wrong pass. This way he influenced the tactical mindset of Vicente Feola Brazilian coach in 1958 world cup who was Bella Guttman's assistant in São Paulo in 1957. Brazilian squad in 1958 had great passers with this kind of mindset: Didi, Djalma Santos, Zagallo, all playing in the 4-2-4 system deployed by Vicente Feola influenced by Bella Guttman. Bella Guttman was the one that discovered Eusébio at Benfica. One of the greatest coaches of all times, if not the greatest.
THIS HUNGARIAN TEAM WAS JUST AWESOME. LOVE IT. TRULY A GREAT TEAM. A SUPER TEAM
Amazing story of a truly great team. 1 defeat in 6 years and it is in final world cup. Fan from Malaysia

he also won two champions league with my club, SL Benfica
@@brothacaim This guy was an incredible coach, a winner wherever he trained, he should have won the 1954 world cup too, but the referee didn't allow him, with many gross mistakes that took the title away from Hungary.
@@leandrogarciatradutor1727 thank you
@@brothacaim You are welcome.
...as right, his name: Guttmann Béla ;)
Pancho Puskas came to Chile in 1976 to manage Colo-Colo. That was the first time the child I was, heard of this marvelous team. I red the history of the World Cup 1954 and I was in tears thinking how unfair football might be.
My grandparents and my parents, used to talk me about Hungarian football, all the time! As Argentinian football with Maradona, as Brazilian with Pele, as Dutch with Cruyff, as German football with Beckenbauer, as Italian football, as English football as Romanian football with Hagi, as Bulgarian football with Stoichkov, as Polish football, as Swedish football, as Greek football etc!
Puskas lived many years in Greece and my grandparents have met him many times! He used to sit in a bakery cafe in their neighbourhood!
If someone is NOT Hungarian, Spanish or Greek, can not understand what we think about this GREAT LEGEND!
ONLY Hungarians, Spanish and Greeks can understand that!
RIP FERENC PUSKAS! From Greece!
🇬🇷❤️🇭🇺🇪🇸
RIA RIA HUNGARIA!
They were real heroes and iconic human beings.
They were absolutely fantastic! I'm proud to be Hungarian and a huge thanks for BBC to make this sort documentary. Very well done guys and many thanks for everything what you gave for the Hungarian people! We love you all! ❤❤
We Scots love Hungary 🏴
It’s one of the things I like about the English - not only will they confess to being bested, they will also document it.
A single victory on a football match ignited a whole nation to raise arms against a dictatorial government. This was beautiful! Football is beautiful! Its power is misterious as love itself. May Hungary get back to the world's top teams one day. Salutes from Brazil!!
We hope so, too! Greetings from Hungary!
come on, you ve got a great football to raise against Bolsonaro, a dictatorial white supremacial. Isn it?
@@d.g.7274 Absolutely not. He was democratically elected. We have chosen our own doom. Quite different from the socialist invasions of the USSR.
Greatest international team of all time
but without any titles...
@@arminiuszmazowszanin2670 Olympic games
@@ytab2759 Its not a prestigeous tournament.
In 1952 so
@@ytab2759 Top players are not interested in olympic games - they're interested in world cups and european championships. Olympic games are mostly played by youth under 21 teams with the couple of senior players. It's basically a youth tournament.
11:10 I think this goal (as Puskas' goal) must be amongst the best goals ever. It was incredible team work.
Magic of the magical Magyars.
Something about the total football: the ball was passed to Puskas by Czibor, from the position of the RIGHT winger, who was the LEFT winger as a totally RIGHT foot player and Puskás scored from the position of the RIGHT midfielder when he was a LEFT attacking midfielder. You can't see in this video, but Czibor (the LEFT winger) has got the ball from the RIGHT winger (Budai) and one can see after the celebration of the goal that Kocsis (the real RIGHT attacking midfielder) was in the allegedly position of Puskás as a LEFT midfielder, waiting for the pass to goal.
Check-mate.
What is left from this video: how beautiful people these guys were. I'm a Hungarian, and i saw and read a lot of documentaries about Puskás. His best friend was Bozsik (the defending midfielder) since childhood, but when reporters asked Puskás who is the best international friend he named always two guys: Billy Wright and Fritz Walter. When he was the coach of the - then - nonamed greek Panathinaikos and led them straight into the final of the Champions League against the Ajax (led by Cruyff) one of his player's mom got cancer. Puskás asked Billy Wright to help, what he selfevidently did, and the mom of his player cured in UK and made her to live 12 years more.
That kind of people were Billy Wright and Puskás.
THAT is football.
Sorry for my poor english.
Fantastic history of this team that deserves all my respect and admiration
My first memory of footy was the Hungarian team - i was only a kid but those names were indelibly inked into my memory. and later - Florian Albert - a genius.
Nice to hear that. I was born in 1985, and the names that got inked to my memory are Shearer, Sharingham, Gascoigne, Ince, Platt, Southgate, Neville... and the game of Germany - England in 1996 Euro Cup semi final...
Puskas had the greatest left foot in history...just ahead of Maradona, Messi, Hagi, Stoitchkov...
Messi?!?! Unstoppable!! The only difference beetween him and Puskas is that Puskas scored over 1000 goals while Messi around 700 and that Puskas played for Real😂😂 they both reached a WC final, won a Olympic gold medal!
@@user-tr1gc6yi2h I wouldn't say greater than Maradona! We're talking about a different level here

@@user-tr1gc6yi2h actually Puskas didn't scored 1000+ goals so does Pele and Romario and bican, bican scored 836 goals and puskas, Pele and Romario each scored around 700, the rest is unofficial but it's still amazing to scrape 500+ goals

great golden team!în 50 matches, they won 49, and loose the only one...the 1954 world cup final.. they really where the best in the world at their time!If 1956 revolution didn t come, în 1958, în sweden, they were the world campion!big like and respect from România!
I'm forever grateful to Mr. Tommy Miller snr. who showed England v Hungary and the 1954 WC final (and many other classic matches) to me as a kid in the late 60's on his 8mm projector. I can't count the times I saw these great matches.
I'm Hungarian
Puskás=legend
Florian Albert, Bene, Toroczik, other legends.
Domii :D Én is...A legjob chapat a világon😊
I'm from iran and love hungry story people and culture 💜💜💜 viva Hungary
I was not born yet, but you can see in this video how good these Hungarian team was. Very Inspirational. They would also be worldclasss in modern football which they created.
Great video! I'm Dutch and Hungarian and both countries have a big history in football. My Hungarian grandfather uses to tell me about this great Hungarian team of the 50s, from when he was young. I will show him this video! I'm so thankful for sharing this with us. Fortunately there is also a video from the Dutch team of 1974. I''ll watch it! :)
You have an excellent football DNA my friend!! I am a big fan of the Netherlands. The Dutch team of 74 was definitely iconic. Ajax too!!
I am Dutch and Hungarian as well :) My Hungarian grandfather used to watch Puskas as well. coincidence :p
Omg ik ben nederlands en hongaar
@tom Grandiek I'm really proud when a Dutch man praises the Hungarian football past! Köszönjük! Dank je wel! ❤️️
What a team and what an emotional story. Hungary were indeed the top football team and revolutionised the game. Also such wonderful human beings.
The Magyars resided in the best hotel in the centre of the town. Right in front of their rooms a funfair took place on the night before the final and a German businessman treated the people with free beer. The Hungarians didn´t get to sleep before 5 in the morning due to the noise.
That is their problem
True
@@captain2ahab but at least we know that they are reasons to the list of the world cup cis of germany
@@captain2ahab Not really. It is unfair and such a thing could not happen nowadays.
Germans have always been like that "whatever it takes to win"....mostly though, to their credit,they do it the right way,but not afraid of doing shady stuff.....and obviously the West couldn't allow a communist country to win the World Cup....everybody who knows football,knows we were by far the best team at that time...it was taken away from us by illegitimate means
My favourite team ever...
Wait, did they say that Hungary was fighting the Nazis?! We were on the same side in WW2...
only at first, than they did find out that hungary wanna cooperate with the us and after that hungary had to fought the nazis
I was born in 1986, i have never seen this amazing team. The 1st ever nation who played the "joga bonito". But they are my heroes!!!! Puskas is a signature name like Pele / Cruyff or Maradona. All the 11 are LEGENDS!!! 🇭🇺 #proudtobehungarian
One of the greatest teams of all time 💪
Love Hungary
From India
Born Polish and have lived in America for 38 years. Have been analyzing games of the greatest national and club teams for years. As a result, I have a great collection of famous games, which you can't buy any more. Well, even though I have been partial towards Brazil, I must admit that the Hungarians of the 50's were the best team ever played. They were cheated of their world cup twice; First, in the final game of 54 cup by the referee, second, by the Russian invasion. Because of this, they did not make it to Sweden in 58. I feel bad for the great Hungarian players and great Hungarian nation for this tragedy. To me you will always be the best.
This should be a movie.
There is movie -Miracle of Bern
Wonderful film. Such a big team with such an tragic in 1954 and 1956. Puskas ist a legend, I saw statues of hin in hungarian villages.
Yes it was arguably the greatest football team of all time if not for the unexpected shocked 3-2 defeat to West Germany in the 1954 World Cup final at the Wankdorf Stadium at Berne,Switzerland.
Hungary or the "Mighty Magyars" as they are affectionately known were the hot overwhelming favourites to win the 1954 World Cup as they came to Switzerland with impressive credentials and that included the mauling of England at Wembley 6-3 and at the Nep Stadium,Budapest 7-1 inside six months from 1953-1954.
But for the unfortunate tackle on skipper Ference Puskas which resulted in a swollen ankle in Hungary's 8-3 win over West Germany a fitter Puskas would have aided Hungary to Word Cup victory in 1954.
That swollen ankle was costly but then Hungary were playing very well in their quarter final and semifinal win over Brazil and holders Uruguay by 4-2 margins.
But the brawl with Brazil in the infamous "Battle of Berne" did affect Hungary psychologically and with Uruguay they were almost a whisker away from imminent defeat but two extra time headed goals saved the Hungarian.Hungary and the defending champions Uruguay were playing perhaps one of the greatest World Cup matches of all time with both yielding nothing.
The same opponents whom Hungary had defeated met in the final but West Germany were a different team this time around after their 6-1 annihilation of Austria in the semifinals.
And what a tragedy for Hungary as within minutes they took a 2-0 lead only for the West Germans to level at 2-all and Helmut Rahn scored the winner.
That 1954 World Cup final defeats is the only defeat Hungary suffered in an otherwise unblemished unbeaten record from 1950 to 1956.And even after the 1954 World Cup final defeat Hungary were still unbeaten including a 4-2 win over Scotland at Hampden Park.
But then the Hungarian uprising in October 1956 broke up Europe's finest ever post war national team.Many of the Hungarian players including Puskas and Koscis fled abroad.
I have to say that i recently saw hungary for the first time in the Euro 2016, but with this video i got no doubt hungary was a great team decades ago
Legends were born in Black and White!
Thanks pitch international for "drive" the best archive of football of the world !!! All the footages "cleans". Nice to mis eyes !!! Thanksss
Sou brasileiro, mas para mim foi a melhor seleção de todos os tempos, tanto que revolucionou o futebol e serviu de inspiração para outras seleções que brilharam em campo, acredito que jamais teremos uma seleção tão ofensiva quanto a Hungria dos anos 50.
Hungary 6 England 3, or Hungary 7 England 1. Choose your poison! Ah, memories.
Uplifting history of a team, of a nation.
I watched this team beat England 6-3, they changed the way football was played. What a team
Hungary also excelled in beat music with great groups like Illes, Omega, Lokomotiv GT and Metro, so somebody must have had a good life there.
1 loss in 6 years? any other team in any other sport that can match that?
Don’t forget the 1958 World Cup match against Wales where the lovely Hungarian team kicked the hell out of the great John Charles.
Fantastic documentary. Thank you for it.
Intro of this documentary gives me goosebumps..
The Hungarians showed the world that it is possible to be big even as a small nation. The golden team remained undefeated in 42 matches over 4 years. The Hungarians launched a revolution against the oppressive communist regime, with this revolution they hammered the first nail into the coffin of communism, the last nail was hammered into the coffin in 1989, and that's when the first stone was knocked out of the Berlin Wall.
This team gave the hungarian people hope in dark, dark times.
Respect for these magnificent players and greetings from Germany.
Finally a german who doesn't try to claim them as germans
This team has good team chemistry. Usually teams with best players on their nations can be a bust at times cause most of them don’t play within the same club like with Hungary 1954 and FC honved or Netherlands 1998 with the squad consisted of Ajax graduates
18:59
the ref got hit by the ball and didn't even flinch 😂
great doc,very emotional at the end
Top class! Thanks for sharing :)
What a shame as a Hungarian boy i heard PUSKAS' name for the first time from the Italians back in 1975 they often said PUSKAS PUSKAS and i just smiled nobody knew i smiled because i had no idea at the time who PUSKAS was!! Grew up in Hungary during the 60s-70s and nobody talked about the GOLDEN TEAM!!!
En octobre 1954 , à Hanovre, l'équipe de France a battu l'Allemagne, (ou du moins ce qu'il restait de l'équipe championne du monde 3 mois plus tôt décimée, version officielle, par une épidémie de "jaunisse", cf Fritz et Ottmar Walter, et d'autres...,). Tout le monde sait maintenant que les Allemands étaient "shootés" pour cette finale et ce fut la plus grande injustice de toutes les finales
Saw Puskas play in Jackie Millburn's testimonial at N/castle in late '60's. Boy was he an artist with that left foot. Read Puskas on Puskas it's a brill read.
Impossivel comparar Brasil de 1970 com Hungriu 1954, mas as duas foram fantasticas ..melhores do seculo 2000..
That was a moment where I did cry by not seeing one of my favourite respective national teams Hungary winning a FIFA World Cup title in the 1954 edition but they must be forever remembered as the world's best footballing nation in the 1950's and hopefully,the current Hungarian national team create a dynasty which they did at that time,good friends!!!LONG LIVE HUNGARY!!!🇭🇺
12 yrs teacher built TV watched Hun v eng 3 6 love them ever since
I think this was the real football. Nowadays the most important thing is for the teams, that the other team not to score. It's not good for the game.
What an amazing revolutionary story.
What a team......
Every true football fan knows that world best team and champions in 1954 was Hungary, in 1974 was Holland, and in 1982 was Brazil. This is footballs unwritten rule and common sense. Do anybody even care of or know German players who were in 1954 squad or Greek team of 2004, but Hungarians of 1954 are legends!
The greatest and most respectable team in history.
the most common formation was 3-4-3. it was necessary only three players because the offside rule was devastating for attackers. and to have four attackers was mortal. other similar attempt to figth the terrible offside rule was the cruyff's team. the defenders could be attackers. the defense with three players or the cruel defense with four players was destroyed with the new offside rule from 2004
One of the 4 great soccer squads of all time? Indeed. The other three: Brazil 70, Holland 74 and Spain 2010.
alvaroasc - Brazil 58 & 62 had the best squad. Pele always says that team was better than 70 because it had better players.
West Germany 1972-1974 should be included.
Brazil 82?
@@jibsmokestack1 as a team Brazil 1970 was the best but 1958 or 1962 players are better.
The best team for me remains Italy 1982. They simply achieved the results they wanted, including beating Argentina, Brazil, Poland and Germany in the Final.
I never heard of this story like I have heard of other great teams like Netherlands of the early 70's or West Germany(1972-74) & Spain(2008-12). I barely stumbled on this video by accident but now I'm glad I put 26+ minutes on something worth watching. This team might've been the greatest team(along with Cruyff's Holland) to never win a WC. They deserved that victory & it's a tragedy that West Germany were unfairly made to win. U cannot imagine something like this, A National team's success or rather should I say A Sport igniting a freedom struggle against a dictator Govt. InCrEdIbLe🙏
I'll say this again, this team was THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TEAM to never win a World Cup, it's a damn shame
'I'll say this again, this team was THE MOST BEAUTIFUL TEAM 2 never win a World Cup' along with Netherlands 74 and Brazil 82
@@brianoreilly239 Idk about the 82' Brazil squad but Cruyff's Holland & this team tops that list without a shadow of a doubt
@ho ber yeah, that's what I heard too. But nonetheless, that team deserved a WC too
If it was not for WW2 Hungary would have won the 1942 and 1946 World Cups. FACT!
catalino sanchez if the 56 revolution never happened Hungary would have most likely won or atleast played off in the WC final, they were on another unbeaten (18) run
its a damn shame people dont talk about how legendary hungary was at one point in time. They were playing total futball before total futball was a thing.
catalino sanchez only old school football fans know who they were most old fans i know who are getting on now in their 70s,80s & 90s still say today they were the greatest team they've seen of all time. Just imagine if they were in their prime in our time with all the hi tech technology thrown at them, arguably they would dominate. In their days the ball was alot harder & heavier just not as aero dynamic
Not very sure about that. I think Italy, Argentina or Uruguay would have won them. But who knows.
@@marcosbremermann870 exaclty... i think Italy would have won the 1942 WC cos they had a fantastic team the only(with Brazil) that won 2 consecutive world cups and that WC wpuld have been their 3 consecutive one!

At last; I believe Ungary & Brasil football nation team, the BEST of all HISTORY.
A great team which always came up short in the crucial matches called finals!
Wonderful.
..Y todo ! Y en todas las imagenes.. en comparacion con el futbol y los jugadores " antes" y de estos -nuestros tmpos ...
- Resalta la enorme diferencia hasta en la expresiones faciales y hasta la " mirada ", de " aquellos " jugadores de los anos "50"....
Sin duda alguna esta selección húngara de los 50 esta entre las 5 mejores de la historia del fútbol
Absolutely beautiful ✌⚡🐴👑🖤⚽
YOU SHOULD ADD SOUTHAMERICAN CLUBS JUST LIKE: PEÑAROL 60´S, SANTOS WITH PELE, RACING 1967, ESTUDIANTES LP 70´S, INDEPENDIENTE 70´S, BOCA 77-78, RIVER 86, FLAMENGO 1981....AND MORE
It's going a bit further back but would have been nice to have mention of Jimmy Hogan, the English coach whose pass and move philosophy revolutionised central European football before WW2, much to the distaste of the FA
Hungary and Netherlands the best teams never to win a world cup 🙁
Don't forget Austrias "Wunderteam" that as the first team beat the on european soil undefeated Scotand 5:0 and at the World Championship 1934 were only stopped by referee Ivan Eklind, who was giving a goal where the goalkeeper was being pushed over the line and even headed a cross away as a referee (!) at the semifinal against host Italy.
YES. Greetings from 🇩🇪 😊
Absolutely correct.
@ho ber True , Netherlands became too focused on trying to humiliate the Germans because of WW2 .
Why are you not playing again like that?
👉
4-2-4
Sounds completely revolutionary to me.
4-2-4 & the Ajax hunting pressing. (also a copy of the 1940 Hungarian style)
Plus:
This final against Germany was one of the greatest betrayals in Football history. (just to speak the truth out)

Tenian un futbol revolucionario para 1950. Yo no he visto nada igual. Especialmente el partido de semifinal contra una gran Uruguay. Creo que habrían podido enfrentarse hoy dia a cualquier selección. Sabiendo que eran un pais de órbita soviética con todo lo que ello conllevaba de sacrificio deportivo, humano y alimentario, esto tuvo un gran mérito. Muy grande, Hungría. Ojala no hubieran sido tan díscolos. Habrian llegado aun más lejos en lo que se hubieran propuesto.. tanto en el futbol como en cualquier otra faceta.
Fueron los soviéticos los que arriesgaron sus vidas y las dieron, haciendo retroceder al n.azismo pocos años antes para que les pagaran así. Gente como puskas, o kubala fueron simplemente unos traidores a la causa de su propio pais. O, quizás se sentían más a gusto con el n.azismo que con el comunismo.
Ahi lo dejaron ellos.
Grosic was a fantastic goalkeeper
In the 50s my club was called Budapesti Honvéd, not Kispest-Honvéd. It was named Kispest-Honvéd after the democratic changes in 1989-90.
Creo que las mejores selecciones mundialistas del siglo XX, fueron Hungría 1954 y Holanda 1974- Las más completas en todas sus líneas- Claro que cada una de ellas fue hija de su tiempo sin duda- El fútbol evoluciona y siempre se irá jugando de manera diferente.
Sin Lugar A Duda
One of the greatest team ever! So sad about WC 54 ((
@Joegamer55 Anti Christs? :-) Ha ha. They killed judish, killed the half of Europe, won against prosperous Hungary, demolished Brazil in 2014 semi-final… what a destroyable nation ))))))
back in the days when a team wasbuilt & maintained with young players being eased in rather than changing players every year.
Also Kubala who was hungaian also, not played that team, but he was in his prime that time
Kubala was more present in Spanish national team
A team that, in SIX years, lost only ONCE, to "chemistry" and bad referree calls? Never before and maybe once since, not in football but in basketball, when the US "Dream Team" was introduced, was such a feat repeated...
(By "chemistry" I mean the simple fact, if you see the game film, that the Germans were running FASTER during the second half than they did the first. It is anyone's guess what that doctor injected them with when he was in the locker room during half time. Lucky for them, no dopping controls were up at the time so the "bulwark against Stalin" got a nice morale boost on the epxense of a nation suffering under Stalin.)
Köszönöm Istenem, hogy magyarnak születtem.

All raise! 1954 Hungary gets on the pitch. 2021 Real Madrid supporters salute them and lovingly remember Puskás, el cañón del Danubio.
Wonderful!!
The finest and perhaps the greatest all time national football team in Association Football
They could have deserved to accolade as the greatest team in Association Football and the World Cup.
But for that tragic and unfortunate 1954 World Cup final defeat to West Germany at Berne Switzerland.It was this blot on an otherwise perfect unbeaten record from 1950 to 1956.
Yes the "Mighty Magyars" arguably would and could have been the greatest ever national football team in history.
They had prior to the 1954 World Cup finals in Switzerland had raked in thirteen goals against England at Wembley and in Budapest just inside six months.A 6-3 win at Wembley in late November 1953 was followed by a crushing 7-1 win at the Nep Stadium in late May 1954.
They even scalped Scotland 4-2 without much difficulty.
They arrived in Switzerland as the overwhelming favourites.
A 9-0 win over South Korea was followed by a 8-3 win over West Germany.Seventeen goals in two matches then eight more in the quarterfinal and semi final with Brazil and Uruguay respectively.
Uruguay ran them close in the semifinals but they prevailed 4-2 in extra time.
Puskas came back for the final but was not fully fit.The West Germans capitalized on it to eventually win 3-2.
If not for that single defeat Hungary would have and not Brazil 1970 team the greatest team of all time.
Apparently I heard they destroyed the tape when Puskas equalizing goal went in. There is suspicion that that was a legitimate goal. Mmmm!!!!
Wow amazing Puskas
Beautiful
"unpolished working class diamonds" - yes! ♥
