List of Hungary international footballers

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hungary national football team has represented Hungary in international association football since 1902. Hungary played its first international match on 12 October 1902, losing to neighbouring Austria 5–0 in a friendly. The team is governed by the Hungarian Football Federation (Hungarian: Magyar Labdarúgó-szövetség; MLSZ) and competes as a member of the Union of European Football Associations (UEFA), which encompasses the countries of Europe and Israel.[1] As of November 2020, Hungary has played a total of 951 international matches. Hungary have played Austria most frequently, meeting the side 137 times. Of these, Hungary have won 67, drawn 30 and lost 40.[2] The Austria–Hungary football rivalry is the second-most played international fixture in football history, behind only the Argentina–Uruguay rivalry which has been played officially 194 times.[3][4]

Gábor Király and Balázs Dzsudzsák are Hungary's most capped players with 108 caps.[5]
