Many Hungarians in England will watch Tuesday’s match from the local sector, and the situation for those coming from Hungary is also complicated by epidemiological measures, and they do not expect any problems in the hall.

Before the Hungary-England match in September, the British press feared various incidents between fans. Although team captain Marco Rossi and the players requested sports support, the match sparked strong reactions and did not go smoothly. After the clash, the focus in many places was not on the English’s 4-0 victory, but on the events that took place in the hall, and FIFA punished the Hungarian Football Association (MLSZ) with a fine and two fines. Matches with a closed goalkeeper (one of them suspended). According to FIFA’s announcement, some fans were punished for “racist behavior and other incidents (such as throwing objects on the field).” MLSZ responded to all this by filing a complaint against the hooligans, and “the behavior of these hooligans who, in contrast to the crowd of tens of thousands, showed themselves in a clearly racist manner towards the players in the World Cup qualifier between Hungary and England, at the beginning of September, is strongly condemnable.” … MLSZ still believes that it is unfair and pointless to punish the fans who create a good atmosphere in a 60,000-seat stadium and the organizing federation that implements all the measures expected in such harsh conditions in a collective manner.”
MLSZ received 4,400 acceptances from English

The two teams will face off again on Tuesday, this time at Wembley Stadium, which looked like a battlefield before the European Championship final last July due to English fans storming the stadium without tickets. Although the match was played three months ago and UEFA launched a disciplinary investigation against the English team, for some reason no decision has yet been made… Unlike the match at the Puskas Stadium, there may be guest fans, received MLSZ 4400 tickets – according to the association’s information, they will be able to sell for less than that. After the chaotic Euro final in London and the match in Budapest, an interesting question is what to expect and how many Hungarian fans will be there, whose entry has also become difficult due to the pandemic situation.
The UK does not accept all the vaccines used in Hungary, so those who have not received them from Pfizer, Moderna or AstraZeneca will have to undergo a lot of testing and spend several days in quarantine, making travel almost impossible, but at least very difficult. Hungarians with an EU vaccination certificate must also take the test on the second day after their arrival, and they must certainly book the test in advance, as the booking number must be indicated on the document required for entry (passenger locator form), but many did not have it. It is, for example, clear what they should do if they travel home before the second day. It says on the UK government website that a test should be taken, but only if the traveler is still in England on the second day after arrival.
“I feel the MLSZ could have informed us better about the rules regarding entry Akos, who is traveling from Budapest to attend the match, told our newspaper. – It’s not easy for someone who is fully protected either. My twin brother and I have been planning the trip since the summer, and we even bought the ticket, but my brother received the eastern vaccine, so he won’t come. It wouldn’t have been a bad thing if the two associations had reached some sort of agreement, and it would have been easier for fans to travel there than to the European Championship matches in Budapest. “I don’t think it will be a problem on Tuesday, I’m not the shy type.”
By the way, Akos was away from the Hungarian-English match, and regarding the joy of Raheem Sterling’s goal, he believes that it was not necessarily the wisest thing to do to celebrate in front of the camp, which he believes not all Hungarian fans do. His reaction was appropriate (he added, for example, French fans celebrated Cristiano Ronaldo and threw glasses at the Portugal-France match in the European Championship). Regardless, he felt it couldn’t be said that the entire fanbase created a collectively hostile atmosphere.

This viewer doesn’t promise to be a week-long researcher
| Athletic mole A British newspaper reported that the Hungarian national team has not qualified for the World Cup since 1986, and this streak continues. With Albania’s 1-0 win on Saturday evening, Marco Rossi’s side were eliminated from the competition, having won just once in their last eight matches. It would be a huge surprise if they beat England at Wembley next. |
| Sky Sports England could be in big trouble if they don’t beat Hungary, and Albania beats the Poles. But according to the English newspaper, there is little chance of achieving this, as coach Gareth Southgate’s team is the most prominent candidate for Tuesday’s match, and it will be very embarrassing if it does not achieve a victory at home against the Hungarian team that is fourth in the group. . |
| Scottish The Scottish newspaper reported that the Hungarian national team, which performed well in the European Championship, has been suffering from the disease for months. England can play at Wembley for the second time after losing in the European final to Italy on Tuesday, and based on the paper, they should easily beat Hungary in the hole. |
But what can we expect from Tuesday’s game? Bad week? Comfortable atmosphere? After another easy victory for the English and Hungarian Albanians, the stakes were no longer as high as they had seemed a few days before.
“If anything goes wrong, I would be surprised if the English take the initiative – An English driver of distant Hungarian origin told our newspaper. – In general, fans interested in such on-site qualifiers are different types of fans, quieter and more family-oriented, than those who go to big tournaments. There will certainly be people whose voices will be heard, but this crowd does not seem to be looking for trouble. Not knowing what to expect from the Hungarians, I can only imagine Molinos being provocative. “There is no problem with the fact that visiting fans can come now, but MLSZ should focus more on filtering out problematic people, and unfortunately we have seen many times that because of the minority, the majority of Hungarian fans are cast in a bad light.”
Given that there are many Hungarians living in England, there are many compatriots who go to the match from London.
“Due to the epidemiological situation, it didn’t occur to me to buy a ticket for the guest sector, there were no English speakers in Budapest, at first I thought there couldn’t be any guests now either.” One of them said. – In the end, I bought five tickets for the local sector, without any problems. We are all Hungarians, some coming from Spain, and others from France, for the match. These were easier to buy, also for better locations, and there were no additional conditions to meet. Actually, I don’t expect any problems, none of us are the crazy type, but it’s clear that we won’t be sitting in the crowd of rivals in Hungarian colours. “I am not optimistic about the chances. I expect defeat by several goals.”
Hungarian jersey under the jacket
Another Hungarian driver settled in London goes to the home sector with his English friends.
“Since many English players were rested against Andorra, we have a difficult match ahead of us, especially after the defeat suffered by the Albanians. He told our paper. – I know it’s customary for the national anthem to be whistled at Wembley, so I expect that on Tuesday as well, especially given the way Hungary has been written about in the English media since September. If someone had asked me before the European Championship I would have said that I was not nervous about the match, but after the chaos I saw at the European Championship, I’m sure I will be more cautious. “If I’m wearing the Hungarian shirt, I’ll wear it under my jacket.”
This seems to be the wisest decision.
We have contacted the FA about the match, fans and expected security measures, but we had not received an answer to our questions by the time we went to press: Will there be a full crowd?; Are fans expecting chaos? Is the match considered to be of high risk from a security standpoint? Will there be a larger security presence than usual at Tuesday’s match?
