My grandfather was very proud of that result too. Not sure if this is true, but apparently the English training camp was in Balatonboglár, near where he lived at the time, and they were training here for a week (according to him anyway).

He kept saying a funny line in Hungarian which could be translated like this:

"Az angolok egy hétre jöttek, és 7:1re mentek".

The english came for one week (1:7), and went back with 7:1 :)

One week sounds like "one seven" because seven and (a) week is the same word (hét) in Hungarian.
