70 years ago the match of the century was played between England(3) and Hungary(6). The return fixture saw Hungary trash England 7-1, England’s largest defeat to this day. (alien.top)

Always felt bad for Gil Merrick. Very good goalkeeper by all accounts, one of the Birmingham City all time great players and managers, servant of the club for decades. Is known around the world for conceding 11 to Hungary when it probably wasn't his fault.
