The Hungary national rugby union team represents Hungary at rugby union. They are governed by the Magyar Rögbi Szövetség (MRgSz), and have yet to qualify for the Rugby World Cup, although they have entered qualifiers for all the tournaments from the 1995 edition onwards. They compete annually in the European Nations Cup, currently in Division 2C. As of 27 December 2010, they were ranked 74th in the world, but were one of 57 teams who moved up a place in the rankings following the disbandment of the Arabian Gulf Rugby Football Union.〔(Fifty-seven nations on rise in rankings )〕 ==History== They played their first ''official'' match against East Germany in Érd in 1990, losing 3–7, but they played a number of unofficial matches prior to this, mainly against a likewise unofficial Austrian team, including a match in Győr on 1 May 1983.〔(Team photo vs Austria in 1983 ) Included in the photo are current MRgSz Honorary President Lajos Vida-Szűcs and current national team manager and president of Esztergomi Vitézek András Neuzer.〕 They first entered the qualifiers for the 1995 World Cup back in 1993, being at the wrong end of an 8–67 scoreline against Israel. Things went better in the 1999 qualifying rounds, where they beat Lithuania and Luxembourg, but lost to Andorra and Sweden. In the 2003 qualifiers, they won against Andorra and Bulgaria, but lost to Bosnia, Yugoslavia (as Serbia was then still known), and Switzerland. The next time (2007) was their worst performance to date, losing all four matches played, including a 9–63 thumping by Spain. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hungary national rugby union team」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
