This week we went back to remember one of football history's most brilliant teams, the Hungary team of the 1950s. With two Germans on the pod, we watched their country's first world cup win, as West Germany pulled off one of the biggest World Cup shocks. Along the way we battled with a 1954 World Cup quiz, heard one of the most remarkable stories about a footballing curse and found out about the manager who gave up on his team to read a racing newspaper from the stands mid match. We also found out why this underdog story of the German win may not be as pure as it seems, and had a discussion about doping in sports. Come along for the laughs on our journey through Football's past.
