Plenty more where that came from, ive got all WC66 games in full.

@tine214 Yes, it is strange how it happened.The Uruguayans lost their heads completely in their QF for some reason, and it's generally accepted that the German ref in the Eng v Arg QF was too fussy and pedantic. And it's still a mystery why Argentina played so cautiously too- they could have taken England on and won. But conspiracy? No. I mean, Italy were the big glamour side of Europe - but no-one accuses England of arranging for North Korea to eliminate a big European danger, do they?

[nmlt5398]

@tine214 No there was no conspiracy to eliminate South American teams.This theory all comes about because an English Ref (Finney) was in charge of the QF between W Germany and Uruguay (4-0 & 2 Uruguayans sent off) and a German Ref (Kreitlein) was in charge of the England v Agentina QF (1-0 & Rattin sent off)and England & Germany later got to the final. As one football writer said : the only problem with the conspiracy theory is that film still exists of the Uruguay and Argentina players' antics.

@tine214

Referees were ordered to eliminate or help to eliminate the South American teams.

@Footballmatchswap Unfortunately there is not more than that as far as England are concerned, its Wembley 66 end of story; hold on ill throw in Italia 90 as well

@tine214 Yeap, if a man is in vital condition there shouldn't be any barriers.

I was impressed with Rocha dominating the ball. I was also impressed that having 30yr old players was a common thing, whereas a 30yr old player is now considered "old"

Legends! How beautiful was Football back then? Things seem too superficial nowadays.
