World Cup, second round, Milan, Italy

West-Germany vs The Netherlands 2-1 (0-0)

51' 1-0 Jürgen Klinsmann, 85' 2-0 Andreas Brehme, 89' 2-1 Ronald Koeman (penalty)

Red Cards: Rudi Völler (West-Germany) and Frank Rijkaard (The Netherlands)

The ugliest and most eventful game in the two nations' shared football history. Before kick-off the Dutch supporters shout down the German anthem with boos and "Hup Holland Hup!" yells. The Germans reply by chanting "Deutschland! Deutschland!" during the Dutch anthem. The game is historically nasty. In the first minutes of the match Adri van Tiggelen badly hurts Pierre Littbarski. The tone's been set. Just before half time Völler dives to the grass after contact with a seemingly innocent Frank Rijkaard, who is booked for it. An angry Rijkaard is angry and spits in Völler's hair. The German shows it to the referee, to which Rijkaard reacts by pulling the German's hair. This time Völler gets a yellow card.

The subsequent free kick doesn't yield anything, but Völler is seen provoking goalkeeper Hans van Breukelen. Rijkaard intervenes once again, pulls Völler's ear and spits again, this time hitting the striker in the neck. After a near punch-up between the two, both are sent off. On his way to the dressing room Rijkaard runs past Völler - and spits again. In the catacombs the Dutchman reportedly grabbed the German by the throat. According to media reports a brief fistfight followed. Germany, meanwhile, ends up winning the game, which can be regarded as the climax of the hatred between the two countries. Völler was suspended for one game, Rijkaard for three.

Frank Rijkaard (Holland defender): "That day I was wrong. There was no insult. I always had much respect for Rudi Völler. But I went berserk when I saw that red card. I talked to him after the match and I apologized. I'm very happy that he accepted. I have no bad feeling about him now. We even posed for a very funny advert together, years after."

Rudi Völler (Germany striker): "Everybody was well aware that one of the teams was going home after that game. And regarding our old rivalry that just couldn't be accepted. I sensed that the atmosphere was very tense. Fortunately I never hear about that incident anymore. Now I'm friends with Frank, even though it took some time We played each other in the Italian league and we didn't have any problem. We actually were rather friendly opponents. W e talked about the incident later. Frank told me he had big problems at the time, he was in the middle of a divorce, he wasn't the real Frank Rijkaard. Today I can say that he is a great person. I agreed to do that Dutch advert, if only to bury the hatchet."

[MikeSV1989]

Littbarsky should have taken the risk and advanced to dribble the goalkeper.

[kloppskalli]

1:50 das ist nie und nimmer Abseits, da sind zwei Hollaender im Ruecken des Schiedsrichters der sie gar nicht sehen kann...Vollpfosten bringt Matthaeus um noch eine riesen Chance

@YrrHoch3

...."dem würde ich auch nicht über den Weg trauen" :D

Auch geil: "Das ist der SIEG!" :-)

[78morgoth]

die beste deutsche Nationalmannschaft EVER!

[YrrHoch3]

Brehme ist einfach eine Legende!!! Buchwald mit 2 Vorlagen, Klinsmann und Kohler machen beide ihr bestes Länderspiel, Littbarski dribbelte phasenweise gegen 4 Mann erfolgreich an und Matthäus war damals vieleicht der beste Fußballer der Welt. Faßbender hat das Spiel seines Lebens gemacht: "Koeman, der heißt ja schon so" !!!!
