This film is about a hungarian legend, the most famous and most well-known hungarian. Is there any football fan who never heard the name "Puskas"? I don't think so.
One word describes him totally : “Puskas as a player and a person... well I think he was even better as a person , out of this world, out of this world!”
What made Puskas unique was that he was a truly great midfield general who could score goals, and then in his 30s a truly great centre forward able to score goals as the spearhead, and I've never seen another player who could be so outstanding in both roles.
This guy is definitely an all time great. My father would talk about him in very high esteem. More goals than games? Are you kidding me? A football ⚽️ genius.
(24:08) At 2 June 2014 Panathinaikos F.C. of Greece honor Ferenc Puskás for guided Panathinaikos exactly 43 year ago (2 June 1971) to the European Cup final, where they lost 2-0 to AFC Ajax at Wembley Stadium. A marble memorial plaque with a metal etching of Ferenc Puskas was unveiled by Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban. We all Panathinaikos fans (and all Greeks) thank you Ferenc Puskás for leaded us to the European Cup final, the only time a Greek club has reached a European final to date.en.enikos.gr/sports/7223,PHOTOS_-_Legendary_Ferenc_Puskas_enshrin.html
I can see that the "impression" that the Hungarians were not allowed to win the World Cup is more than merely an impression. Even the Wikipedia article "1954 FIFA World Cup" describes how the German players used methamphetamine and the help from the referee (the wrong offside calling from the lineman Zimmermann) to win.
meaturama LMAO! Ronald can play 50 yrs straight in his best form ever,still will never be the Player as Puskas and Di Stefano was!!! A Real True Footballer and Team Player or Goal scorer!
This comment was 7 years ago, I think we can all agree that cristiano is the best Real Madrid player ever, but di stefano is the greatest as in importance of what he did for Madrid.
First the politycs.... now money is destroyng football.... A true football times, form me was from 1990 to maybe 2004.... The players who playd in that time... just fantastic players.... Batistuta, Totti, Del Piero, Ronaldo, Gerrard, Maldini, Baresi, Romario, Raul, Sheerar, Van Basten, Baggio, Crespo, Veron, Beckcham, Zidane, Firgo, Roberto Carlos, Recoba, Ivan Zamorano, Nesta, Zolla, Rui Costa, Casillias, Canizares, Buffon, Owen, Ballack, Nedved, Davids, Overmars, Bergkamp, Seedorf, Kluivert, Ronadlinho, Rivaldo, .....and muuuch more of legends.... We dont have players like that anymore.... only Cristiano ROnaldo and Messi.....
Pelé remains the greatest, for his achievements and all-round ability but Puskas was greater than Maradona. It's just that (though all true football lovers know he was among the greatest) he's not as famous now as Maradona, since he was from a much earlier period.
A truely great person,and fantastic player.Everywhere i go whenever i tell where i'm from,people are like "Hungary?Oh,PUSKÁS!".I always smile.It"s amazing.
At 08:17 => Sandor Kocsis another hungarian legend scored 75 goals in 68 games for Hungary!! Total goals scored in world cups: 11 goals all scored in Switzerland 1954 (same as Jurgen Klinsmann but it took Klinsmann 3 world cups to score that amount of goals)
When I watch videos like this I'm so proud to be hungarian and its such a good feeling. But to be honest today hungarian football is *** . In those days they were the best players in the world. I imagined if they would play in one team with Ronaldo or Messi. R.I.P. 6-3
I speak exactly about this! Where I live many people don't know where is Hungary and if this movie shows gipsies that is no good because they think the Hungarians are like these people. So, this is why I wrote that sentence.
In the 50s Hungary were probably one of the best teams in the world if you based it off of the individual skill of he players, if not the best. I wonder what made them so,good back then and so bad now.
I'm 30 years old, and unfortunately it's you who don't understand, or don't want to to understand what I'm saying. What I'm saying is the nationality of some gypsies, or roms, is hungarian, whether you want it or not. Hungary is a country, and gypsies are a minority of this country. They are citizens of Hungary, and as such they are hungarians, exactly like you, and they have the same rights as you do. Some gypsies are also french, like me. YOU just don't understand the meaning of "Hungarian".
Oh! And also I lived there (Kispest) where the film show them. So, I know how many gipsies live there and how many trouble they did to me! But I didn't want speak about this during a Puskas film.
Cujo19760210 Well...back then the pitches were shit, the ball, their boots were not specially designed like today and players back then didn't have all these rules protecting the strikers...a red card in football today was barely even a yellow today!! Why do you think commentators are always talking about how "that tackle would never had been a card in my time" and that's why I think players like Messi and Ronaldo would never have survived back then because the defenders would literally try to break their legs!!
I tell you who is Ignorant...A Spaniard coming here and to discuss who better...instead of just writing...We love you Puskas... From Spain... Real madrid Country...R.I.P.
Józsefné Ildi Kenessey Kedves Ildiko! Greatest Hungarian Player NEM "LARGEST" lol Igaz az lehet hogy o volt a Largest mikor "81-ben visszajott s a Budapesti Oregfiuk Valogatottban jatszott a Magyar-Angol meccs elott!!!
Puskas was Austrian or German, he's real name was Ferenc Purczeld, his father was a football coach and immigrated to Hungary. Also his mother is believed to have Spanish ancestry, he also played for Spain's national team.
okay first Puskas from Hungary! Yes there is so much gypsies in this country, we dont like them but they leavin in hungary we cant do nothing if we like or not! But this moovie is not abaut the gypsies this is abaut Puskás Ferenc! great hero phenom and the best ewer! by
I don't know who are you and how old are you. I think I didn't write anything that you did. I wrote I don't understand why did the SKY Sport put them in the film. I know the answer. (I'm working with English guys!) The west European people always think that the Hungarians are gipsies. Also Romanians .... This is why they put in the film. BTW the film is great except that part.
Real Madrid fans will never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, forget you, Pancho! Always in our hearts.
R.I.P. Mr. Puskas. A true legend. Thank you for everything.
Genious.
One word describes him totally :
“Puskas as a player and a person... well I think he was even better as a person , out of this world, out of this world!”
'They were men from mars as far as we were concerned' Sir Bobby Robson
What made Puskas unique was that he was a truly great midfield general who could score goals, and then in his 30s a truly great centre forward able to score goals as the spearhead, and I've never seen another player who could be so outstanding in both roles.
Puskas was a player who can easily be compared with Maradona and Pele.
Absolutely! Puskas' 84 goals in 85 International Caps coupled with Kocsis' 75 goals in 68 International Caps proved extremely lethal!🇭🇺
Always in our hearts ! From Greece.
Rest in peace Sir Ferenc Puskas you deserve a world cup
This guy is definitely an all time great. My father would talk about him in very high esteem. More goals than games? Are you kidding me? A football ⚽️ genius.
700+ goals.... what a beast
It is incredible how they used to play in high levels until about 40 years old
Legend, went to Budapest a few years back and it's great to see how well loved and well remembered he is

Wow, look at how many people were at his funeral; just shows how much he meant to his people. Deffinately one of the best players of all time.
Hungary should have won in 1954
The best team never to win it.
@Lionel Messi what Messi 2014? Lol butthurt Fans
@Lionel Messi I would add Zaire 1974 to that list.
Yes but Germany somehow beats the best teams like Netherlands and hungary
West Germany were better in the final
Puskas is the greatest player there ever was and ever will be !!!
Yes he ia
9 years later and he still is
probably among the greatest of the footballers ever to have lived...

Ferenc Puskas and Alfredo Di Stefeno are the greatest
Real Marid players ever
meaturama you know nothing..

@@TheSHAWN1911 this was 6 years ago but let’s be honest cr7 is better... similar goal number from playing on the wing and the trophies he’s won?
@@samuelbiswas615 ronaldo is better yes I agree but that doesn’t make di stefano and puskas any worse. They were disgustingly good
This comment was 7 years ago, I think we can all agree that cristiano is the best Real Madrid player ever, but di stefano is the greatest as in importance of what he did for Madrid.
Pele said "Puskas was the Greatest Football Player Ever played the Beautiful Game"
Really?
Ye he is
we will never forget you
6:17 Look at the 2 Hungarian substitute players watching the match behind the goal-line, whilst enjoying a smoke. Imagine that happening today... :D
Can still smoke in some stadium
Buen documental. Descanse en paz, Ferenc Puskas.
I am related to him! He is my granddads cousin and whenever male teachers say my surname they talk about him! I am 12 and I am only quarter English
Fair play, that’s mad tbf. Hungarian legend. (why am I replying to a 6 year old comment)
@@9wowable fair play to the lad, respect to his grandads cousin
Cap
Do you know how hard the ball was back then? Lol and he could kick it hard too. Machine.

yaya lol Of course :) I agree
makadeni123 Sorry :)

:))
Puskas was the best player ever , RIP from Romania
Yes
Respect from a Romanian, one of the greatest talents in sport history
i understand
R.I.P Puskas a real hero to a country that needed one if not for communism puskas would have been better than pele or maradona. (from poland)
He was better than Maradona I believe Pele was the Greatest ever and Puskas #2
Pelé remains the greatest, for his achievements and all-round ability but Puskas was greater than Maradona. It's just that (though all true football lovers know he was among the greatest) he's not as famous now as Maradona, since he was from a much earlier period.
Pele is the most overrated player in history
Maradona was cheat
Pele said puskas was better
Poland love Ferenc Puskas !
A truely great person,and fantastic player.Everywhere i go whenever i tell where i'm from,people are like "Hungary?Oh,PUSKÁS!".I always smile.It"s amazing.
Puskás you were amazing! Rest in peace!
Great Player
Puskas and Ronaldo (il Fenomeno) are the two greatest fat players of all time.
At 08:17 => Sandor Kocsis another hungarian legend scored 75 goals in 68 games for Hungary!!
Total goals scored in world cups: 11 goals all scored in Switzerland 1954 (same as Jurgen Klinsmann but it took Klinsmann 3 world cups to score that amount of goals)
the king
hungary is an awesome country, puskas was a phenomenal player
When i play football i try to play like him!
Giant
Thank you Sky Sports for paying your respects to the King!
RIP from Poland
Puskas - Deyna - THE GREATES
Mané Garrincha and Ferenc Puskas my favorite players ever.
And Eusebio
one of the greatest

R.I.P.
6-3
Thanks for the upload :)
Ferenc Puskas and Hungary/Magyar: Heros! I liked
This video has a mistake. Hungary won against South Korea 9-0 in the 1954 World CupNorth Korea's first World Cup participation was 1966
Legends who do not have a World Cup title because of Germany:
- Ferenc Puskas
- Johan Cruyff
- Lionel Messi (possibly to change this Sunday)
Thank you from Hungary :')
The best Hungarian footballer ever!
Respect
God Blessed You Forever.....
Happy Birthday and i never forget you, my Greatest-Hero!

He is my granddads cousin
the reason Puskas isn't regarded as the greatest player of all time is because only a few people remember him
Just looked up his goal scoring record, incredible. To bad theirs not many videos about from players back in those days.
+King Kyrie if you think thats impressive, look up josef bican, and good lord above what he could do with a football
@@Alf763 he played in 2nd division of Austrian football
@@deadchannel288 erm, no? He didn’t?
In the 50s Hungary were probably one of the best teams in the world if you based it off of the individual skill of he players, if not the best. I wonder what made them so,good back then and so bad now.
talent
+Ryan Tyler Socialism
after reading his stats and looking at this video i admit that Puskas the great was the best player of all time even greater than pele

Yes he did
18:11 That legend Eusebio...

all of the members of the golden team is dead ,i mean if that doesnot bring tears to our eye i dnt know what will
It's a shame that Hungary team did not win any world cup at that time...
1954 i understand
gameD
Yup, and i'm not even Hungarian myself.
But this team was amazing and played total football.
+Chuck Maurice Puskas and Kocsis are hungarian tank
gameD
Legends, as well as Czibor and Grosics.....
+Chuck Maurice golden team death last year 😞
the 5 attackers who would everything in that era are garincha pele Eusebio di stefano and pukas
if they were in the same team
I don't get why they don't put him on FIFA 13 for Classic XI???
Even Puskas would admit who was the boss in Real Madrid.
My best parts are at 22:50 and at 25:20.
Madrid is Great!
no joke btw more than 1000
Young generation most probably
Józsefné Ildi Kenessey Kedves Ildiko! Greatest Hungarian Player NEM "LARGEST" lol Igaz az lehet hogy o volt a Largest mikor "81-ben visszajott s a Budapesti Oregfiuk Valogatottban jatszott a Magyar-Angol meccs elott!!!

Puskas was Austrian or German, he's real name was Ferenc Purczeld, his father was a football coach and immigrated to Hungary. Also his mother is believed to have Spanish ancestry, he also played for Spain's national team.
#6-3 1953
puskas scored 1000 goals? or was it just a joke? 22:55
OMG 6:28
@MrThomas6000 There's definitely an argument for it
Here you have Puskas playing for Spain in the 1962 World Cup, wearing the number #14 /watch?v=Aa31c-QPdWk
Isten nyugasztalja Grosics Gyulát (a Fekete Párduct) !
I don't think he meant to be Racist he only wanted to tell the truth,it just didn't come out too good!
I don't understand that the sky sports why put in this video gypsies girls at 3:15.:(
Wish I could have seen him play . Too bad he was a Madrid player :/
;)
I was thinking the same thing Showing a Documentary about Puskas and they just had to shaow the Group of Gypsies lol
okay first Puskas from Hungary! Yes there is so much gypsies in this country, we dont like them but they leavin in hungary we cant do nothing if we like or not! But this moovie is not abaut the gypsies this is abaut Puskás Ferenc! great hero phenom and the best ewer! by
Ok one last argument... Who was the better man of the field...Puskas...
"El Gordito" hehe
Madrid All Time Best Strike Force:
Di Stefano + Puskas + Zidane + Raul X_X
Zidane was a midfielder....
Attacking midfielder tho.
Samuel Herize There should have been a law preventing Puskas and Di Stefano from playing on the same team. LOL!!
Ronaldo says hi, the hate and disrespect he gets is amazing.
" I know more about footbal than you, because i'm spanish."
