1974 Knockout Stage - Holland v Brazil. The Cruyff Turn, Neeskens and the Louis Perera rugby tackle............ [video=youtube;ZTs2iwMqVMg]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTs2iwMqVMg[/video]
1966 - North Korea v Portugal... [video=youtube;WvDKYywpusU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvDKYywpusU[/video]
1970 - England v Brazil. Jairzhino, Bobby Moore and Bank's save [video=youtube;2siL0-JPq2Y]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2siL0-JPq2Y[/video]
The 1970 World Cup was a great tournament. As for a special moment, if its literally a moment then its probably Gordon Banks' save if its a game then the way the attack minded Brazilians took apart the Italians in the final. Brazil were a wonderful team.
1970 - West Germany were down and out......... [video=youtube;munBdTn5iLQ]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=munBdTn5iLQ[/video]
The Carlos Alberto goal was the pinnacle for me. The ball seemed to bobble up for him and he leathered it....................
1986 World Cup was just a huge collection of moments really , for me . Besides the obvious Canada inclusion , Maradona was worth the price of admission . The guy owned the World Cup , what a joy to watch .
An iconic, rather than a great moment, .....but it's still memorable. A sad exit for Zinadene.............. [video=youtube;Y4a5jvk78Rs]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y4a5jvk78Rs[/video]
