The Battle of Berne
A whopping 42 free-kicks and three red cards occurred
The fighting continued into the dressing rooms!
There are some matches that can instantly be identified as era-defining, as classics that make their entrance straight into the annals of the game. The FIFA World Cup™ quarter-final tie that Hungary and Brazil contested at the Wankdorf Stadium in Berne, Switzerland, on 27 June 1954 was not one of those contests. Yet as time would reveal, it proved to be a significant event in the history of football.
It came as no great surprise that the Hungarians triumphed that day. Though the Brazilians were a strong side and had come within touching distance of the world title on home soil four years earlier, their Eastern European opponents dominated the global scene in the early 1950s.
