Hungary v England (1954) was an international football game played on 23 May 1954. The game was played between the Hungary national football team—then the world's number one ranked team and the Olympic champions—and the England national football team, hailing from the birthplace of the game of football and reputed "Kings of Football".[1] The game was a return fixture from the 1953 game in the old Wembley Stadium, where Hungary had beaten England 6–3.[2]

England approached the game in the hope that the 6–3 result had been an aberration; instead, Hungary provided a phenomenal masterclass of football, and thrashed England 7–1.[3] The match still remains England’s largest defeat to this day.
