Not too sure where this stadium is located. Read somewhere before it is Paris, but heard from another source it is actually in Budapest. Could anybody out there let me know the real name of the Stadium.

Colombes Stadium - it was the host site for the 1938 World Cup final. Italy defeated Hungary 4 - 2.

The stadium of the Hungarian football group MTK.
It's true just ask Vajna ;)

Used because it didn't have floodlights, though it does now. Check Google Earth.

Here is some photos of MTK stadium in Budapest.

The grounds have deteriorated over the years and the iron gate that they went through in the end of the film has been replaced with a less ornate one. You can't tell from the pics but this was reported by some fans that visited there recently.
