Hungary are one of 160 national teams who have never won a FIFA World Cup or their confederation's continental championship — the same two-tier standard tracked for every team on this site. Hungary were World Cup runners-up in 1938 and 1954 and beat England 6-3 at Wembley in 1953. Their men's Olympic football gold medals in 1952, 1964 and 1968 are separate from the World Cup and European Championship tracked here. Their 2026 World Cup qualifying campaign ended third in Group F with eight points, without qualification.

To join the 51 nations already tracked here, Hungary would need to win either the FIFA World Cup or the UEFA European Championship — the top continental honor in the Europe (UEFA) region. Future opportunities depend on the eligibility and qualification rules for each edition. The current wait does not imply that a completed tournament can still be won.
