On this day in 1954, Hungary humiliated England 7-1 in Budapest in an international friendly.
The mighty Hungarian side had been unbeaten since May 1950 and had won Gold at the 1952 Olympics in Helsinki, Finland under the tutelage of the brilliant Gusztav Sebes. Hungary had shocked England in 1953 by winning by an emphatic score line of 6-3 at Wembley, and in doing so, became the first country from outside the British Isles to beat England on English soil.
The Three lions arrived at the Nepstadion in Budapest hoping to return the favour.
