Argentina - Netherlands, FULL MATCH, World Cup 1978, Part 10/14

[CitrusFruitzz]

If the netherlands had won, we would not have been safe at all. This WC was during the regime in Argentina.

if Gonella was indeed instructed to make Argentina win the game, then the foul against Houseman at 9.58 was the most brilliant opportunity to make it happen - end of the game, and apparent penalty chance. But he didn't. What? was he instructed to have the game won by Argentina in extra-time?

[hanzzz2303]

@myself Passarella, that is, not Gonella

[hanzzz2303]

@5:08 Passarella knocks out two of Neeskens' teeth and breaks the dutch flow completely... No red card (obvious with Gonella) and no World Cup. I live in Florence, and if I ever see that tosser back here, I'll knock two of his out.

argentina dont deserve to win this world cup,1986 yes or even now.but 1978 definately no class at all.something is wrong during that time!!!!!!!

[jovi141]

if holland have won this world cup the where going to be thrown out of an airplain "death flight" so argentina cheated everyone

[richis404]

i still dont understand why the people saying that argentina cheated this match,if they done it so why they didnt get the penalty at 9:58?

[truvianni]

@richis404 no way that was a penalty!Houseman had lost the ball Van Der Kerkhof just took the ball he had already lost and if anything it was Houseman who ran in to him in his attempt to get the ball back

1966, 1978, 2002 were very 'strange' world cups to say the least :)

[sergioponti]

fixed match. Referee also admitted years later

@sergioponti

where did you read this? i want to look at it, looks intereting

[sergioponti]

@vteam02

hi! it was on a national newspaper years ago, when ref Sergio Gonella was talking about his career. He admitted that he had received threats.

[aadder444]

Yes, Holland and Brazil both got mugged in this World Cup.

[JohnHess65]

Neeskens knocked out.Red cart.Holland should have won.

[richis404]
