Blood in the (Olympic) Water

In the 1956 Olympics, the Hungarian water polo team (whose country was occupied by Russia) played the Russian team for the pride of their country, not just themselves.

After vicious punching and kicking, one of the Hungarians had their head gashed open and blood trickled into the pool.

The Hungarians won 4-0.
