Betsa was an ethnic Magyar. Russian variation of his name had both variants, the Ukrainian transliteration of Hungarian as well as the standard Russian adaptation for Yozhef as Iosif.[1] In December 2006, he was denied the invitation to accept a medal from the President of the Union of Russian football veterans, Alexander Bagratovich Mirzoyan, with the explanation that he had to reside in the Russian Federation. He was born and died in Mukacheve.
