The 1902 Austria v Hungary football match was a football match held on 12 October 1902 between Austria and Hungary. The match was played at the ground of Wiener AC, a stone's throw from the modern Ernst-Happel-Stadion, and it ended in a 5–0 win for the hosts. [1]
This match marked the official debut of the Austrian and Hungarian national football teams [2] [3] and it was also the first international match involving two non-British European teams. [4] It was the first official international football game in continental Europe, [5] and only the second official international match played outside the British Isles after a game between Argentina and Uruguay in July 1902. [6]
Although the teams were representing Vienna and Budapest, the capitals of their respective country, both sides consider this their official international debut. [4]
Josef Taurer was the author of the very first goal in non-British international football when he put the Austrians ahead in the 5th minute. Five minutes later Johann "Jan" Studnicka doubled the lead and Gustav Huber added a third before the break. The second half was also dominated by Austria, which scored two more goals to seal a 5–0 win, both netted by Studnicka who thus completed his hat-trick. [1]
