The most important thing for a football referee: to remain unnoticed!
If sports were to evaluate careers based on this, Viktor Kassai would probably have failed the most among Hungarian referees...
In soccer, everyone wants to go to the Champions League, the World Cup, the European Championship, they want to make a lasting impression there - if you look at it, Viktor Kassai has an exceptional career. He was not 24 years old when he made his debut in NB I in 1999; In 2008, he was entrusted with the Olympic final in Beijing, where he blew the whistle for Lionel Messi; In 2010, he was able to lead the semi-finals as a World Championship rookie; in the history of the Champions League, he was the youngest to conduct a final - in 2011, at the age of 35, he led the stars of Barcelona and Manchester United onto the Wembley turf.
Despite the unique success story, his is a true "Hungarian" story: the higher he got, the more people wanted him to fall.
This book presents four and a half decades of Viktor Kassai's life from the protagonist's point of view, not avoiding memorable failures and hidden stories. This is how he saw it from the middle of the field, who, after finishing his active refereeing, started on a new path as a sports director. On the road that led from Tatabánya through Beijing, Durban, London, Madrid and the world's largest stadiums to Moscow.
Kassai's readable, honest confession from one of, if not the most, successful figure in Hungarian football in the last two decades.
