The Hungarian national team will enter the field for the first time this year on September 3; it is strange to describe it, but 2020 is a special year. For the first time since the first official game of the Hungarian national team (October 12, 1902, Vienna-Budapest 5: 0), the national team will play for the first time in autumn. It is telling that even after the total destruction of WWII, there was already a match in August. So on September 3, and the opponent is Turkey, so it makes sense to remember the recent encounters against the Turks.

“BREATHE!” On September 12, 2007, the Hungarian team suffered a seemingly mild 3-0 defeat at the Inönü stadium in Istanbul to the Turks. The visitors were able to come back in the 63rd minute, due to a defensive blunder that left Gera Zoltán unmarked, but his shot was pathetic, easy prey for the local goalkeeper. Instead of a penalty that seemed completely clear, Scotland’s Stuart Dougal sent a free kick in favor of the Turks to Alan Cunningham and sent a second yellow card to Gera. The Turks found him three times in the remaining time.

MLSZ protested in a letter to UEFA “I would not have thought that I would receive the first red card of my life when they were fouled,” Gera commented in our newspaper. After reviewing the incident, the Disciplinary Committee of the European Federation lifted the automatic suspension of a match for Zoltán Gera due to a referee error, allowing the attacker to enter Malta.
