Absolutely need to have the 2014 World Cup semi between Brazil and Germany - still unbelievable to this day!

 

Edit: Found it!

 

 

 

 

Good find

 

Nothing difficult about what Germany did that day. Ruthless

Argentina v Romania 94 world cup.

 

Nice - is that the one where Hagi taught the world how to hit a ball like a bullet from a standing start?

 

If so - you score a ten.

Mental celebrations at Park Head after Scott Crabbe's goal - were you at that one? 

 

On a par with Anfield bedlam in the post above.

I am watching this. Bergkamp in 1998 was well on his way to becoming super human. God bless the Eurostar so he could compete in this one.

Levein's volley. I know saying nice things about the man isn't the done thing at the moment but that volley is sweet. Andy G's reaction is one of submission to the natural order.

Leeds divide opinion though clearly before many people's time on here.

 

One thing about this game is it changed Leeds approach. They had had enough of close shaves, losing the league by 1 point 2 years in a row in 1971 and 72.

 

Had enough of failing to win. Next season went first 29 league games unbeaten to win the league for 2nd time under Revie.

And maybe a minority interest. Tough for Leeds fans to watch but this was a great game. The great Gerd Muller and Franz Beckenbauer both admit Bayern were fortunate. The middle of Bayern's 3 in a row. 

 

And strangely not mentioned in all the furore over Clough's 44 days. Not bad for a rubbish side.

 

 

Second half here

Probably one of the best ever Brazil v Italy 1982 World Cup 

 

 

Belgium v USSR 86  and France v Brazil 86 were rather good as well.

In searching reminded of this. British tv didn't cover this tournament live till the final. Missed some of the best games ever.

Half way through the ten episodes.brilliant series.

Football's greatest.

Nabbed this one, Celtic v Leeds in front of 136,000 (!) at Hampden. It was supposed to be scary inside. 

 

Scary to the point of out of control. 2 x Murrayfield on a mud slops with crash barriers.

I'm willing to take any abuse for this. BUT Sport Relief last week did a VAR review. Next realised second goal was offside.

 

 

Yes the 3rd goal - all the controversy over whether the ball crossed the line - nobody ever thought much about the offside .

Unbelievable

 

 

 

Mike1874, you can hit up iTunes or Amazon Prime and watch an amazing documentary about this, called 89. The editing and production is a ten, incredible memories brought back to life.

The goals from every World Cup final. 

 

And... the answer to whether England's 3rd goal was over the line. See 7.17. 

 

 

Spoiler

It wasn't - ball hits the line.

I've got a classic Belgium v Wales on VHS somewhere.

 

Must dig it out.
