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)

The English line-up was decided by a FA committee. Every player was nominated for a certain position and had to play this position.

The Hungarian line-up was decided by their coach. Especially their forwards didn´t care about positions.

You can see why Hungary won and England was very confused the whole game.

Extra info: The statistic was around 35:5 shots on goal for Hungary.
