Up To 20,000 Hungarian Fans Expected To Support National Eleven In France
Between 15,000 and 20,000 Hungarian football fans could travel to France next year to support the national team in the European Championship, daily Magyar Nemzet said. Gábor Szabados, a sports economist, told the paper that 60-70% of the fans would travel to France by car or bus.

The trip, including transport, lodging and tickets, will cost them at least 50,000-60,000 forints (EUR 193) apiece, although they could easily spend as much as 180,000-200,000 forints, he added.

After defeating Norway in a pair of playoffs earlier in November, Hungary’s national team made its way to the European Championship for the first time since 1972.
