Benjamin Massing vs Claudio Caniggia

[sgtpepper2345]

Final Score: Cameroon 1 - Argentina 0.

Cannigia was cocaine addict and was later banned (just like Maradona)

[sgtpepper2345]

FINISH HIM!

[sparkylarry]

Blatant dive

[veroashley2005]

WITH THAT KIND OF FOUL, MESSI DONT PLAY THE WHOLE WORLD CUP, CANNIGIA PLAYED ALL THE GAMES EXCEPT THE FINAL BECAUSE OF YELLOW CARDS ACCUMULATION :-)

[faulknmd]

It couldn't have happened to a nicer team

[claudio8804]

apreten 9 , dice "messi" xd 9

[lhanks99]

50/50 ref

[brondbylove]

Probably the most momentous foul of all time IMO. With Schumacher on Battiston in 1982, no one saw it coming - but here, everything about the sequence just leads up to the absolute clattering that Massing prepares for Caniggia the moment he touches the ball: the brutal force of Cameroon against the fastest player on the face of the planet; Caniggia's increasing loss of balance from two challenges... and the freight train coming that is Benjamin Massing.

[vinceo0]

now wat was the yellow card abt???

[Meepmeeple]

never stops being funny

[CapitalBhoy78]

0:19

That ALSO deserved a red card, bastard!

[1996bartdejong]

that number seven was scared! lol

[nitekat007]

that was brilliant!! then the defender pleads to the ref "Look ref - we tried to foul him twice and he ws too quick or jumped to high...what else could I have honestly done??" LOL

[Attacante99]

It was such a great triple-tackle.... when he stumbled after the 2nd one already and then ...CRUSH.....hehe. 

[adammicahdouglas]

shoulder to shoulder wasnt it? its a mans game.

[poppertwo]

Argentina Mullets.

[22juampatandil]

Burruchaga (Arg #7) well done ja ja ja

[HailToDB10]

I'm surprised Caniggia didn't literally break into two pieces after that

[0586730O2]

well done massing, good man

[TheIncredibleButt]

cool tackle but did you see that ninja kick ?! 0:17

[MrTopShota]

the beautiful game at its finest (is it bad if i like this kinda shyt)

[larebz]

@MrTopShota no these were the good old days :D

[swaggalicious901]

the only thing missing from this video is a train horn

[StuartMcKay08]

Claudio Cannigga legend.

[GabyLocuraa]

@harrison58 Por eso en cada gran equipo del mundo hay uno, no?

[TheKelz93]

Imagine if someone like Sergio Busquets got tackled like that! He'd be on the floor for centuries!

[mmlp8844]

00:05 Maybe next time...

00:07 Nearly got 'im!

00:09 Gotcha!!!

00:36 oh...

[splardybutt23]

There's no 40th second. Hmph. Strange.

[0586730O2]

@splardybutt23  :0) strange!

[robertoantnes]

Só assim pra parar quem corre com a bola praticamente colada ao corpo. Pura maldade de quem não sabe jogar futebol.

[ken139]

I remember watching this game. Think it might have been the first game of the 1990 world cup. This is the one tackle that I will never forget. It was so dramatic. Going, going, gone!

[Robo7381]

express z Bergamo

[brondbylove]

The greatest tackle in World Cup history? More like the greatest ASSAULT in World Cup history. Schumacher on Battiston comes a close second.

[TheMrSlap]

they probably thought his name was Ca'nigga'

[soribakaba]

#7 was scared of massing

[vuyani9]

NOT UP IN HERE!

[eddkahn]

So a player is on the end of a horrible tackle and what do the players do? Run to the ref instead of seeing if their teammate is okay.

[yoelminecraft]

racist reffre!

[Keopppp]

lo talo, lo re opero al pobre cani

[coooba94]

Massing Massacre :) i like Caniggia...

[travelinbaand]

FINISHIM .FATALITY

[coooba94]

bad boy Massing :) i really like Cameroon and Argentina!!!

[echeberry1000]

tomen una sopa de su propio chocolate .... SUDACAS!!!!

[BurnRoddy]

JAJAJA indo de mierda no ves que expulsaron al grone?

Además los argentinos llegaron a las finales y a partir de ese momento Caniggia pasó a ser titular.

Tu racismo no tiene fin pero tu idiotéz es incurable.

[bahiaseeds]

jajajaja le saca la roja y luego la amarilla, jajaja insolito!!!!

[chrystell35]

massing tu connais!!!! ça c un tacle mortell mdr l'argentin ki a reçu ça vraimen il a du perdre un os muhahhahahhaha

[apvrc1977]

The number 7 is burruchaga

[xItachiPwnsAllx]

The foul was so bad that it deserved an extra yellow after the red.

[gargoyl3]

@xItachiPwnsAllx LMAO so true. that motherfucker even lost his cleat smh

[ngusumakofu1]

@infracaca How can you call a game "real football" when 90% of the time, the ball is held in the players' arms? If the manner in which a game is played makes the players so vulnerable to injury that they require helmets and what not, then maybe it shouldn't be a game.

[ngusumakofu1]

@infracaca How can you call a game "real football" when 90% of the time, the ball is held in the players' arms? If the manner in which a game is played makes the players so vulnerable to injury that they require helmets and what not, then maybe it shouldn't be a game. Your NFL is seriously considering watering down the game due to all the concussions. There might even be no season for your beloved game next year. Why are you even watching this clip if you don't consider it real football?

[0586730O2]

at 0.19 secs the no. 7 steps on his foot!!

[turkelafandiyev]

"your tackle was so terrible, here's red card.... AND yellow card for your next game in advance!!!!!"

[benashibenton]

In "real" football, this would be a bitch tackle lol

[infracaca]

@benashibenton In "real" football, this wouldn't hurt thanks to the helmets, pads and armour.

[sichi11]

@benashibenton THIS is "real" football. not that piece of garbage

[QwertyKeyboredAsFuck]

Best tackle? Late tackle!

[nitel10]

cannigia is a diving cheat

[BR177]

the yellow card was to the first guy but the referee forgot the face because they all look the same

[howieboy62032914]

The first point I have to make is that I said the tackle was truly terrible - in no way did I suggest otherwise. However, I think in South American and mediterrenean countries, card waving is rife and it is a disgusting and unsporting way to play the game and it is something you VERY rarely see English players doing, yet Italians, Argentinians and Spanish do it an awful lot.

[kelo6]

HA and he only ended up getting a yellow for the tackle!! (the red was because he got a 2nd yellow) funny shit.

[howieboy62032914]

Truly terrible tackle, clearly deserving of a red but absolutely hilarious too! Also, see those cheating argie fucks waving the imaginary cards?? Cheating bastards. Horrible to see that in football.

[Fritha71]

@howieboy62032914 It's english bastards like you that give football a horrible tint with your never ending stereotyping and bitterness (over something that happened, what, 25 years ago). The tackle was horrible and idiotic and the reaction of the argentine players was nothing if not natural in that situation - nothing to do with their nationality whatsoever. Go and grow a brain, will you.

[MegaEnglandsnumber1]

@Fritha71 fuck of you prick go cry in the corner where we cant see you

[wazo89]

he was not going to get to the goal lol.

[4damind]

It was such a brutal tackle that he got a Red + a Yellow? lol

[nebelbalito]

I watched this live when I was 12. I was just happy that cameroon won...but looking at it now to be honest, that's a brutal tackle and a deserved red. What is the deal with showing red and then yellow anyway...hahaha...

I think Cameroon was consistently the best team in that tournament, with W. Germany, Italy and Czechoslovakia. Cameroon were fucked in the quarter final by a questionable penalty. The argentina team in 90 was tha total opposite of the Argentina team in 86...it was average

[tomcunha]

argentinos = LOSERS! ! ! kkkkkkkkkk

[Megadeth72]

that''s a legendary tackle

[Mondocane1]

lol red first and yellow later?

[damodgc]

@Mondocane1 that yellow carried onto the next game because it was such a filthy challenge

[tomcunha]

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

chupa argentina

[Laufter100]

@tomcunha tu puta madre me la chupa

[playboyx85]

And i am talking about Germany and Brazil. When you are good enough to play against those teams then you can holla at me.

[1983Jacko]

@playboyx85 You're a fucking dumbass. You must be because only a dumb piece of shit says "holla"... fuck off and don't watch football. Have fun with your gayass baseball bat.

[123FaChY321]

Eso sí que duele!

[playboyx85]

I wish Messi got a similar treatment at the World Cup

[ginosupernova]

@playboyx85 that would be better for you, taking into account that you are shit playing "soccer"

[playboyx85]

@ginosupernova Your sentence literally made no sense. Did you do cocaine with Maradona before making your post? Oh yeah Argentina is also shit at football. Just ask Germany and Brazill

[ginosupernova]

@playboyx85 we're talkin about Arg and USA, and you talk about another teams, what a team of losers. Idiot I hope you get better

[MrNEXMOVIE]

jajajajajajajaja drogadicto Caniggia, cae por que cae!

[bbobfr]

Nice defensive action!!! And to all pussies spiting here niggers or other shit like they are only brute force, go and learn how to see a soccer match.

Too much brats on YouTube...

[SGTFAULK]

Love how Burruchaga pushes Massing haha ..

[DoctorScrumpy]

Diving argentinians ! :D

[Trancymind]

@DoctorScrumpy he got tackled big time just like in the nfl football. caniggia could run the 100 meters in about 11 seconds. that is so fast!

[bboymummy]

Canniggia, simplemente uno de los mejores y mas veloces que he visto en un mundial X)

[djwwragg]

See that boot fly up in the air haha. If you can't get the ball then make damn sure you get the player lmao

[stelling1992]

caniggia was absolutely poleaxed haha

[mriol]

@thugnificent79

agante argentina papa

fuck you

[MASTEREMMO]

BOLUDO K GOLPE!!

[jespuschristus]

Greatest tackle in world cup history.....

[spaceman1979]

Damn! He hit him so hard that even his own boot came off.

[photofx]

Massinga was a fucking dirty negro shithole!

[Chipmunksongs2009]

Pwned

[SylhetiPrince]

LMAO !!! what a tackle, so funny

[rcc22]

Greatest tackle ever with the greatest commentary ever!

[ozzman1973]

Negro de mierda!! que agradezca que se le deja jugar al futbol!!!!

fucking nigger!!! He should be thankful he is allowed to play soccer!!!!

No matter what happens in world cups, Argentinian soccer players will always be the best in the world!!!!

[Nformi2007]

@ozzman1973 tu eres un hijo de Puta!!!!

[ozzman1973]

@Nformi2007

jajaja... do I look like a give a fuck??

Fuck you!

[132000Volts]

@AndrewGarrood I didn't think Cameroon were that dirty during the cup to be honest

[SylhetiPrince]

@132000Volts he also trys to kick the argentina num 7 lol

[photofx]

@132000Volts

& you say that after seeing this vid?!?!? I saw the match.....Cameroon were much worse than this vid, trust me. (you can google the match)

[echeberry1000]

de que queja argentina????

si son mas ladrones y sucios que cualquiera!!!!!!

[hump3]

Funny every time. I believe that was the formation Argentina adopted for the remainder of the tournament - 10 crowded around the ref.

[endiablado7porelrojo]

Que raro que no aparecio un mexicano diciendo que no fue falta...

[MyHeart2JoeJonas]

LMAO best tackle EVER!

[lindopool]

Massing, what a name! What a tackle! The cheating Argentinians deserved that :)

[luhar49]

Did you notice how No 7 stamp on Massing's foot. Quick retribution

[drgarrote]

que negro hijo de mil p uta...... el arbitro otro pelotudo primero muestra la roja y despues la amarilla, ese no podia ni dirijir el transito... eso en el potrero de barrio es para piñas, de una, como para saltarle con una patada voladora directo a la clavicula

[MEBP76]

¡Michel Vautrot! El peor árbitro que he visto en mi vida...

[alvanson]

@AndrewGarrood I have to agree with you all African countries play a dirty game. They have brute strength and nothing more. They lack the skill and finesse of the soccer super powers so they rely on hard fouls to stay in the game.....

[pecosism1]

jajaja pòbre Caniggia le dieron en todo la canilla, y el negro que no se deja, ..arbitro huevon saca la tarjeta roja y despues la amrilla jajajajaja

[SeppukuDoll]

Those who can play, play. Those who can't, do this.

[MrMegabreath]

Laughed at it the time and still do now.

[newtotube1111]

He did what he to do to protect their lead so near the end of the game. Cameroon were absolute lions during Italia '90, even though they didn't win it, they were far the most captivating team in the whole of the tournament.

[axcme]

@newtotube1111 youre absolutely right

[lmAglnE]

FTW

[higgy550]

there was nothing wrong with cameroon's tactics in this game - they beat argentina at their own dirty , hacking game - god bless cameroon you lit up that world cup!

[HolyAvgr]

@higgy550 Except, maybe, the very anti-football that "tactic" represents. If I wanted to see people beat the fuck out of each other, I'd watch rugby or australian football.

[higgy550]

@HolyAvgr

dont talk rubbish you fuck wit - cameroon lit up that world cup with their attacking play -it was hardly anti-football- you probably never even watched them play - comment of a complete clown

[HolyAvgr]

@higgy550 ohohoho, tough guy. I bet all your swearing proves your faulty-point, right? You are just an english sissy full of hate.

[mojo007164]

he got it bad? i lost my shoe! they were nike id's and cost me 120 quid damn it

[ronasheton]

Well, it's very spectacular and all, and he sure deserved that red card, but I think that kind of tackling is not very likely to end up breaking legs and knees or twisting ankles. Often the worst tackles are much subtler than that, at least at first sight.

[fizzoster94]

0:20... #FTW

[wills311]

that tackle was so bad the ref had to show him a red card and a yellow haha very funny ^^

[AtlantisSaturn]

@wills311 That negro probably said something to the ref.

[chopperg1966]

See the number 7 shit himself when he thinks the cameroon player was coming after him?

[Barr1112344565]

@chopperg1966 funniest part of the vid!!

[Metalpesado62]

@chopperg1966 Haha, yeah, good eyes! By the way, that´s Jorge Burruchaga.

[winshiposorio77]

@chopperg1966

jajaja you´re right

[alls3t]

@chopperg1966 Not really. Why would he get into trouble with someone who obviously doesn't give a shit about hurting the opponent during the last minute of a game that's already won?

[Woundheir]

@chopperg1966 No dude, he just stepped on the cameroon player´s foot and then got away just to play fool.

[Thechalfonts]

The best thing about this tackle is that you knew, just knew it was coming.

[hbisseck]

hilarious....

[Widmerpool99]

I shouldn't laugh. Ah, what the fuck.

[Stamford2010]

I could just watch this for ages & just laugh every time!!! World Class!!

[vegalta365]

This may be the best example of the "If in doubt, knock him out" school of defending.

More importantly, what was the ref doing? "I've shown him a red already, but should I... err... yeah, go on then, I'll show him a yellow too."

[kulful]

I really don't see anything funny about this at all.

[ShivDes1]

HAHAHAHAHA AT THE BOOT

[RandomHero565]

dirty Argentinians. smelly little bastards

[gabilxc]

@RandomHero565 FUCK YOU!!!!!!!!!

[GauchoArgento]

@RandomHero565 dirty is your overweight and cock sucker mother...

get your teeth fixed, faggot...

[RandomHero565]

@GauchoArgento paaahaha nice insult (Y). remember World Cup 2002, i seem to remember England beating Argentina.

[toonarme]

If I remember, Massing was waving and blowing kisses to the crowd as he went off after his red card. A brutal nasty tackle - yes, but funny as fuck :)

[nitel10]

@toonarme

not massing that was kana biyick who was blowing kisses. the first red card

[toonarme]

@nitel10 Ah, thanks, it's my memory playing up, I blame it on my age :D...

[bryarc27]

negro de mierda

[Baynesy10]

@bryarc27 spanish cunt

[Sparxx99]

Top lad, great tackle.

[hareega]

Seeing this the first time made me think there should be something harsher than a red card

[ChacareroMzaArg]

CARCEL PARA ESE ASESINO CRIMINAL!!! ...AGUANTE ARGENTINA !!!

[epforrest]

lol at :20 hahaha he just runs away.

[rothkodog]

"And it could well be a red card for Massing!" Oh, d'you think?

[HugoRune1976]

@mack3288

You know they beat Argentina 1-0 and went on to lose 3-2 aet to England in the 1/4 final right?

[deepbg1]

hahahahahaha number 7 came to do something,they kicked his ass and he ran lmao

[itissuperdan]

ace

[llorieb]

I think Massing though he was in a karate championship. Stupid!

[pharry4life]

Stay down you pussy Argie. Massing is like 'who cares, we are still 1-0 up and its the last minute of the game'

[andregomesnf]

He could go all the way for a touchdown

[razork1976]

More tackles likethis please in football. Its a man's game.

Besides, he's an argie so he deserves it. they'd be doing the same

[wowmage6]

I can almost hear him shouting "BOOM NOOB"

[shakeystevensVIII]

A powerful anti-drugs in sport message there from Massing.

[Ilcristian]

@shakeystevensVIII ahahahah lol mate!!!!

[cloudchaser07]

Should be the dirtierst tackle in World cup history

[SeanFHoward]

@cloudchaser07

He kicked an Argentinian, get over it dude

[simplyphenomenal]

Thats terrible! This kind of violence has no place in football!.....hehehehe

[remkovdb]

absolutely no intention to play the ball, I think that day the purple card should be invented, although even servere fouls were commited later ( try kokmeijer for instance)

[maximusman4]

He got knocked the fuck out!

[stoplookhear]

lo hizo mierrrda xD!  y nadie de camerun se acerca a defender a su compañero o parar la expulsion hablando con el arbitro xD!
