  History

  Early years

Győr reached the Hungarian First Division in 1937. However, in the 1937-38 season they finished 13th and they were relegated to the second division. In 1946 the club again reached the first division and this time they played 10 consecutive seasons in the Hungarian League. However, in 1955 they were relegated again. They reached the first league in 1958 but they were relegated again. Their next comeback was in 1960 and they have never been relegated since.

  The 1960s and the semi-finals of the European Cup (1964-65)

In 1963 the Győri ETO FC won the Hungarian National Championship I title for the first time. As a consequence, the team could enter the European Cup 1964-65 season. On 2 September 1964 Győr beat Chemie Leipzig 2-0 in Leipzig. In the second leg Győr won 4-2 and entered the first round of the qualification.^[1] In the first round Győr played their first match at home against Lokomotiv Sofia and they won the first leg by 5-3. In Sofia they lost to 4-3 but won on aggregate 8-7.^[2] In the quarter finals Győr played the Dutch Door Wilskracht Sterk. The first leg was played in Amsterdam at the Olympisch Stadion and the final result was 1-1. In the second leg at home Győr won the match 1-0 and won 2-1 on aggregate.^[3] In the semi-finals Győr faced the Portuguese giant club Benfica and lost their first match 1-0 at home at the Népstadion (now Puskás Ferenc Stadium). In the second leg Benfica won 4-0 at the Estádio da Luz which resulted the farewell of Győr from the European Cup.^[4]

  The 1980s

Győr reached their zenith in the early 1980s winning the 1981-82 and the 1982-83 season of the Hungarian League. Péter Hannich and Lázár Szentes scored 43 goals together out of the 102 goals during the 1981-82 season. The József Verebes led team gained 49 points applying the Dutch style of playing football. The following season Győr won the championship only in the last round gaining 44 points while Ferencváros came second with 43 points. In the 1982-83 season Győr scored 20 goals less than the previous season which was due to Lázár Szentes injuries while Péter Hannich scored 20 goals becoming the second top goal scorer in the season. Since the team won the 1981-82 season they entered the European Cup 1982-83. Győr lost in the first round to Standard Liège 5-0 away, however they beat the Belgian champions 3-0 at home but it was not enough to advance in the cup. In the following season of the European Cup 1983-84 they beat the Icelandic Víkingur in the first round. Győr won the first leg 2-1 with the goals of Magyar and Burcsa. They won away 2-0 with the goals of Magyar and Szentes. In the second round Győr had to face a much more difficult opponent the Soviet Dinamo Minsk F.C.. The first match was played in Győr and the Soviet club won 6-3. In the away match Minsk won 3-1 and eliminated the Hungarian club from the European cup. In the 1983-84 and the 1984-85 season Győr came second after Budapest Honvéd, while in the 1985-86 season the club finished third. In the 1986-87 season the club finished only 10th while in the following year they came closer to the top of the league by reaching fourth place.

  The 1990s

The 1990s did not start promising for the club since they finished only 11th in the 1990-91 and the 1991-92 season of the Hungarian League. In 1995-96 the club finished 15th in the league and had to play play-offs against the Western Hungarian rivals FC Sopron. The first match was won by Győr 2-0 while the away match was lost 2-1 which resulted in Győr remaining in the first division. After reaching the nadir of the history of the club, in the 1996-97 season Győr finished 9th and secured a place for the following season. In the 1997-98 and 1998-99 seasons the club finished fourth which were considered the best positions in the 1990s.

  The 2000s

In January 2003 Aurél Csertői was appointed as the coach of the club.^[5] Attila Pintér became the coach of the Győri ETO FC in 2009. During his coaching the team finished third in the Hungarian League 2009–10 season after beating Videoton FC in the last round. On international turf the team entered the Europa League 2010-11 season. In the first qualifying round Győr played their first match against FC Nitra. The final result was 2-2.^[6] In the second leg Attila Pintér's team could win 3-1 at the ETO Park.^[7] In the second qualifying round Győr played their first match in Kazakhstan against Atyrau. The match finished 2-0 to Győr thanks to the goals of Linas Pilibaitis and Fouad Bouguerra.^[8] In the second leg Győr could win 2-0. The goals were scored by Rati Aleksidze and Mihai Nicorec.^[9] In the third qualifying round Győr played with the French Montpellier HSC.^[10] The first match was played at the ETO Park and the final result was 1-0 to the French team.^[11] The only goal of the match was scored by Olivier Giroud. In the second leg Győr won 1-0.^[12] The only goal was scored by Valentin Babić. In extra time there were no more goals therefore the teams had to decide the match in the penalty shootout. Győr won 4-3 on penalties and entered the play-offs of the Europa League. Győr played the Croatian Dinamo Zagreb in the play-off of the Europa League 2010-11. The first match was won by Zagreb 2-0.^[13] In the second leg at the Stadion Maksimir győr lost to 2-1 and were eliminated from the Europa League on 4-1 aggregate.^[14] Due to the increase of the number of matches the team were unable to do well both in the Hungarian League and in the Europa League. The results in the domestic league were not satisfying for the management, therefore Attila Pintér and the management mutually terminated the contract between each other and the management appointed Aurél Csertői as the manager.

  The 2010s

In 2011 Aurél Csertői was appointed as the manager of the team. Győr started the 2011-12 season with seven consecutive wins. On 19 June 2011 UEFA suspended the club for violations of licensing rules. As a consequence the club cannot participate in European competitions for three consecutive seasons.^[15][16] In March 2012 Aurél Csertői and the club agreed to his departure and Attila Pintér was re-appointed as the manager of the club. In the 2011-12 season of the Hungarian League Győr finished third, however due to the suspension of the UEFA they could not enter the Europa League.
