Blood in water polo match in Olympics.


The Match was a water polo match between Hungary and the USSR in 1956 at the occasion of Melbourne Olympics. The match took place on December 6 in 1956. It was against the background of the 1956 Hungarian Revolution and saw Hungary defeat the USSR 4–0.
The name was coined after Hungarian player Ervin Zádor emerged during the last two minutes with blood pouring from under his eye after being punched by Soviet player Valentin Prokopov.
