🎙️ How Good Were They? – Episode 4: Ferenc Puskás

In this episode, we explore the legendary career of Ferenc Puskás, the Hungarian icon whose name still defines goal-scoring greatness. From his early dominance at Budapest Honvéd to his stunning comeback with Real Madrid, Puskás racked up over 700 career goals and became one of football’s most influential figures.

We take you through his rise with Hungary’s Mighty Magyars, his iconic performance in the “Match of the Century” against England, and his remarkable late-career success in Spain — including four goals in a European Cup final. But it wasn’t all smooth sailing: exile from Hungary, a lost World Cup final, and years out of the game raise key curveball questions about how we measure his greatness.

Was he a stat-padder? Was his legend inflated by nostalgia? Or was he simply one of the most complete attackers in football history?

Packed with historical insight, legendary quotes, fan opinions, and a legacy that lives on in the FIFA Puskás Award, this is the definitive verdict on one of the game’s true icons.
