In football its is a widespread belief that in order to be remembered you need to win silverware.

Hungary of that time is one of the exceptions to that rule.

I love how English can confuse someone if they're not well-conversant with the language.

The only slight grammatical error was putting “its is”. And even then that’s so nit picky. The sentence was perfectly worded.

It's grand, but the structure of your first sentence could be quite complicated for a non-native speaker.

Most people’s minds, when fluent in a language, will often literally autocorrect mistakes like that and only recall them if they deliberately attempt to, you’re fine

Your comment made perfect sense just to clarify.
