In fact, when it comes to Hungarian football, older fans must be impressed. In 1950s, as a European powerhouse, they swept the world with the 1954 World Cup. At that time, they beat the Germans to pieces in the group stage
However, the appearance of "Berne Miracle" made Hungary's high trophy go up in smoke, but Hungarian players represented by legendary star Puskas made fans all over the world know them.
In the following half century, as once giants, they began to decline gradually. Since 1968 was crowned the Olympic men's soccer champion for the last time, they have never won any intercontinental champion.
In terms of player training, not to mention the super giants such as Puskas and Cocis, even the players who can occupy the main position in the five major leagues in Europe are rare, and the decline rate of Hungarian football is still somewhat embarrassing.
It was not until the European Championship in 20 16 that they reappeared after many years, but this time they played the role of "program host", when they were in the same group as Austria, Iceland and Portugal.
In the end, they topped the group with an unbeaten record of 1 win and 2 draws, but lost to Belgium in the first round of the knockout round and missed the quarter-finals. From then on, everyone began to realize that the traditional giants who had been silent for more than 50 years showed signs of recovery.
