Lack_of_Plethora comments on 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.

Honestly the Hungary team that lost the 54 final is more famous than the Germany team that won it.
