On this day in 1902, the Austrian and Hungarian national teams met in Vienna in what was the first international game of football not involving a British or an Irish team.
The two neighbouring countries battled it out at Wiener AC’s ground. Austria won 5-0, with all the goals coming from the Viennese club’s players. Josef Taurer put Austria ahead in the 5th minute before Johann Studnicka doubled the lead five minutes later. Gustav Huber added a third and Studnicka scored a brace to complete his hat-trick.
Despite the embarrassing loss, the Hungarians had the last laugh in the first competitive game between the two.
