Ferenc Puskás, awarded the title of Sportsman of the Nation, was a Hungarian footballer with an Olympic gold medal and a World Cup silver medal. He was also a coach for several club teams and national teams, and was posthumously promoted to Brigadier General. Known as Öcsi Puskás, captain of the Golden Team, he was nicknamed Pancho after defecting to Spain. He is listed among the greatest footballers of all time by FIFA. In 2016, the internet sports portal goal.com named him the best footballer ever in their "World Cup of Legends" poll.

In 1956, after a guest appearance in Spain, he did not return home and was considered a deserter and defector by the dictatorship for decades. Almost a quarter-century later, on May 28, 1981, Ferenc Puskás was able to visit home again, where he was received with as much love as when he had left. From then on, the Hungarian political leadership held him in high esteem, recognizing him with numerous awards for his contributions to the success of football both domestically and internationally.
When he died in 2006, he was honored with a nearly princely funeral ceremony: an impressive catafalque was set up in the stadium named after him, there was a military tribute and a national day of mourning. However, it was noticeable how few people were present, a fact made even more conspicuous by the ceremony's scale and grandeur.
