ETO FC Győr (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈeto fc ˈɟøːr]), Egyetértés Torna Osztály Futsal Club Győr (literally: Concordance Gymnastics Department Futsal Club of Győr) or just ETO, is a football club from the city of Győr in Hungary. They are best known for reaching the semi-finals of the European Cup 1964-65. The club has won the Hungarian League four times. In 1904 the club was founded as Győri Vagongyár ETO and has undergone many name changes since. The colours of the club are green and white.

Győr first reached the Hungarian First Division in 1937, however their stay was brief. They were relegated straight back to the second division after finishing in 13th out of 14 teams in the 1937–38 season. In 1946 the club again reached the first division and this time they played 10 consecutive seasons in the top flight, until in 1955 they were relegated again. They again spent one season in the first league in 1958. After their next comeback in 1960, they played 55 years in the top flight, until they were relegated to the Nemzeti Bajnokság III at the end of the 2014–15 season.

In 1963 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. 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. 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 therefore won 2–1 on aggregate. 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 in the departure of Győr from the European Cup.
