OTD E0043 — 13 Dec 1954: Wolves, Honvéd & The Night European Football Was Born

13 Dec 1954: under the Molineux floodlights, Wolves beat Budapest Honvéd 3–2 after trailing 0–2 at half-time. We put this legendary friendly in context: England’s insular years, the 6–3 & 7–1 Hungary hammerings, floodlights and finances, and why the Daily Mail calling Wolves “Champions of the World” enraged Europe. From Puskás, Kocsis and Billy Wright to Gabriel Hanot and the birth of the European Cup – plus what happened to Wolves and the Mighty Magyars after 1956.Tips/corrections: otd@17lawsguy.com
