You are proud of this????

Its a shame that Bayern was humilating Ajax on the farewell game for the best player of all times Johan Cruijff.

According to the Bayern players they were treated arrogantly and hostile by the Dutch when they arrived in Amsterdam. It was only a payback.

did anibidy know why Muller retire from German national squad early (right after world cup 74), while still playing for Bayern Munchen until 1979 (?) or so?

[MullerGoalProduction]

He wanted to spend more time with his wife and daughter.

@MullerGoalProduction : I am glad Ajax set that thing straight in 1995

The original plan was for Ajax to play Barcelona, Cruyff's next club. But they were unavailable, so someone suggested their main European rivals Bayern Munich. Sadly Ajax made it clear they weren't happy about the situation and didn't show much hospitality (what with the Dutch/German hatred), so Bayern treated it like a real match and gatecrashed the party. Franz Beckenbauer did say he was ashamed of his former team-mates though.

Gerd ''der Bomber''Müller is the best !!!!!

[jprova]

MullerGoalProduction was right, the Bayern players they were treated arrogantly by organisers and hostile by Ajax fans.

Also 621380 is right, Johan told them to play seriously.

At half time they were asked to slow down a bit, their answer: "Wir machen so weiter".

I am Dutch but in this case agree with the attitude of the Germans...

Johan Cruijff , Johan Neeskens, Jan Jonbloed, Wim Suurbier, Will Rijsbergen, Arie Haan, Rud Krol, WIm Jansen, Will van Hanegem, Nicolas Rep, Rob Rensenbrink, Theo de Jong, Rene van de Kerkhof.!!! Do you think we forgot these players because they lost the final 1974 because of a goal by whom? It's sport not war.
