- This is the story of the 1990 FIFA World Cup. It is one of the most dramatic World Cups ever. Germany and England would compete in an incredible Semi-Final. England had their best World Cup since 1966 but ended in Gazza's tears. It would also become known for Rijkaard's spitting incident.

Rijkaard spitting on Voller multiple times is such a shocking moment. I mainly knew him from his Barcelona manager days. He seemed like such a cool and calm guy.
No problem for Dutch back then. They considered themselves as being very tolerant and despised discrimination and conservatism.
Therefore they considered it okay to single out every German as nazi and just spit on them.
In a very cool and calm way of course.
Ironic, isn’t it?
There was still a lot of post-war anti-German sentiment back then.
spitting in professional games is more common than you think.
The best German squad ever won the World Cup, two German countries united celebrated the victory - Best thing ever 🇩🇪🏆⚽️💪🏻❤
East German players weren't playing for the team yet. The Berlin Wall came down in 1989, Germany was reunited in October 1990
@@romibodoni Nobody wrote that, East Germans also supported West Germany, read carefully before you comment.
@@javimarquez13 You're right, I wasn't reading carefully. My bad :)
@@romibodoni No problem, all is well and have a nice Sunday.
Not the best German team ever..best was probably 72/74🇩🇪
I'm glad they shifted to 3 points for a win in future world cups.
Yes, it was a necessary change. The group stages had become overly cautious.
Back in 1990 when i was following the WC games, i thought the Germany/Netherlands game was the most exciting match of the tournament. But it was only this past year when i decided to re-watch the England/Germany match....as it turned out, i fell in love with this particular match & realized that it was even better than the Germany/Netherlands match!
Both teams played a fabulous game & it could've been one or the other advancing thru to the final. Interestingly i lost interest in German football in 1990 mainly because KH Rummenigge was no longer a part of it.....but it would resurface again later on during the 2010 WC when i again fell in love with German football.
Great video, Happy to see you are above 1K subscribers, still way short of what you deserve for the great and detailed content. I am 52 so that world cup was the first that I watched my Germans win live after the 82 and 86 heart breaks. And one of the reasons as I watch the Germans play in the euros at the moment the English play by play doing the games here you notice it in their tone that they are cheering against Germany because of the history of the two countries against each other, not to mention 1996 when Germany won the Euro at Wembley, I bet England would love a win in Berlin to return the favor! God I love this sport!!
Thanks a lot.
Ah, you've seen many great times for the German national team. These last few years have been the rare time you guys have really struggled.
Imho, Cameroon was the team of the tournament. They enchanted us with beautiful ball play and Roger Milla danced into our hearts. We took part in the next city's victory corso after the final and you could see a sea of German flags with Cameroon flags sailing like ships on them.
Cameroon played really well. If they were a bit more clinical against England, they would have beaten them.
No mention of the fact that Germany wore the greatest football kit of all time in the Seni-final?
Forgive me for my blasphemy :)
My favourite national team is Germany
But they suck since 2018.
@@Schnipp08It will be better now, England sucked since 1966😂
@@Schnipp08 still 6 more titles than England to our name and we are back on track now!
That was very well done, loved the drawing :) As a german I didnt know much about the 1990 worldcup, very interesting :)
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
Worth noting, Argentinas biggest attacking threat - Cannigia, was suspended for the final.
Maradona, himself, was barely able to run, due to an ankle injury.
Still took a penalty to beat them.
🇩🇪🇦🇷
Another great and informative video as usual
Thanks a lot.
Biggest disappointment of the tournament was Marco Van Basten. After the Ballon d'Or and his performances at Euro 88 everyone was expecting him to do great and he did nothing.
Like Ronaldo at every World Cup.
As a Belgian the defeat against England felt very hard. This was probably the best Belgian squad we ever had, after the generation in the 2010s. The squad that reached the semi-finals in 1986 was now much more mature and balanced and reaching the semi-finals was certainly possible again. Where Belgium was very lucky in 1986, they were unlucky in 1990.
Yes, you guys were very unlucky against England. I watched highlights in preparation for this video, and Belgium had so many chances.
I started watching your videos today with the 1954 video. Subscribed to your channel. One day you'll be a big channel. Don't forget us especially me on that day. Keep it up.
Thank you for the kind words. Much appreciated. I will remember you Mic.
Let's be honest: the deciding penalty was not really a foul. That being said, there was a clear foul in the box shortly before that. The going theory is, the ref made a consolation decision.
Overall Argentina had no chance in the final, they only fouled and tried to make match ugly, could have had half a dozen red cards by today's standard. The ENG-GER match would have been a much more deserving final, with much more closely matched opponents.
Yeah, Germany deserved to win the final. They dominated the match throughout.
I agree w you....the GER/ENG match should've been the final of the 1990WC tournament!
Much like the Germany/Spain match that we all watched just a few days ago!
Schillaci!
The penalty Germany received really wasn't worth it really. Most people agree that it was a concession after the ref didn't give a penalty after a foul on Augenthaler minutes earlier
Yes, that's def a factor.
I also think Argentina played so poorly that everyone agreed it was the right result regardless of the penalty.
@@TheSportsFiles-mm1kg Yeah, Mozon and Dezotti totally deserved the red cards
@@TheSportsFiles-mm1kg In that final Argentina didn't even have a single shot on Germany's goal, a "record" no other final participant ever "achieved".
@@Harry-tb8yo Argentina sure did miss Cannigia due to suspension and Batistuta not being in the 1990 squad is a crime in itself.
@@Trancymind I doubt if Cannigia would have made such a difference. Argentina didn't really try to attack. For the most part of the game it looked like they wanted to go for the penalty shootout. What a huge difference to how they played in 1986!
I am a bit late but congrats on 1k subscribers!
I'm also subbed
Thanks a lot much appreciated
Congrats!!you have crossed 1,000 subs
Thank you 😊
The fact That Maradona had a injury kinda makes you wonder if theu could have won with a healthier Maradona Once again great video enjoyed it keep up the good work 🎉🎉
A fully fit Maradona def would have given them more attacking threat.
Thank you very much.
@@TheSportsFiles-mm1kg oh and congratulations on the 1k subs
The most one sided finale ever🇩🇪
Bro i want 2019 cricket world cup story please🙏
I do plan on eventually doing other sports as well. When I do that, the ODI Cricket World Cup is top of the list.
@@TheSportsFiles-mm1kg if England wins the Euro then please make a video on it 🏴
Will you make videos of others sports too after this series?
My long term plan is to cover multiple sports. For now I will probably focus on Football because the channel is still small and I am trying to build an audience. In the long run I would like to videos on sports like Cricket, Tennis, and NFL etc.
@@TheSportsFiles-mm1kgOkay
In a Nutshell its just the Germans took revenge from Argentina for the 1986 world cup final loss 😂
These were better days.
As a German this video makes me sad. Since 2018 they just suck. Even if they had bad luck against Spain this year. It was hand and a penalty! But yet they are the only "big team" that did not reach a semi final of a major tournament since 2016. So it's a shame.
Yeah, by German standards, they're having a terrible period atm. But considering they've had decades of prolonged success, it's a small window in comparison. I'll be surprised if they don't turn it around fairly soon.
As a fan of Germany(i'm not German though!) i believe Germany could have easily defeated Spain if they were a little more clinical in their chances in front of the Spanish goal. I'm a little more optimistic about the future of German NT though! They did exactly the same thing as they did in 2016.....they played beautifully & yet they lost in the score department.
Germany was really too good in 1990, they defeated Holland, England and Argentina. Also Yugoslavia and Czechoslovakia, some of the best teams of the 2nd tier, had no chance against Germany. Maybe the fact they played their first 5 games in Milano, on SanSiro (which is just 500km from Munich), the sixth was played in Turin, again in North, while England played most of their games south. The final against Argentina was played with 70,000 Italians shouting against Maradona. Everything was well aligned. The best thing Germany did, was defeating Yugoslavia 4-1 in the first game, as a comparison, other important teams scored 3 or 4 goals in all their games of the group stage. Brazil scored just 4 times in all tournament, Argentina scored 5 goals despite they reached final. And that was West Germany, adding the East later gave them no little progress in the following years.
A modest, boring team. Not a patch on the 1970 to 1976 vintages. Their goals total decreased as the tournament went on.
@@Ruda-n4h Germany played well in 1990, look at all other important teams, Argentina was miserable, Brazil didn't win a single game at more than 1 goal (perhaps the only time in the history), Holland was a shadow(no single win), Spain and Belgium exited quickly, Italy played well but with poor opponents, when they met Argentina it proved they were limited. England was above average, but didn't really impress in any game. Overall, Germany truly deserved that World Cup.
@@republicofhandball8815 They were the best of a bad bunch.
I thought Mexico was the first country to host twice in 1970 and 1986
They were. I wrote Italy became the 2nd nation to host it twice.
A very mediocre World Cup after the two sensational World Cups of 1982 and 1986.
Yes, agreed. Very defensive and lots of diving, etc.
With a penalty that
Never was
Can you please upload videos every week instead of two weeks?
If the channel continues to grow, I will do it someday.
I'm currently doing this alongside a full-time job. I basically take a financial hit each video with the editing cost, etc, whilst making 0 revenue atm. I'm close to monetization, tho. If I start making some money, then I'll def post weekly.
The 1990 world cup was won by west germany, not germany
Germany reunited and this world cup was like a celebration of germany being unified
this felt like it was about england and not germany.
Wtf?..Matthaus?..Matthäus!
first and foremost I would like to thank the creator for this content, but I think your miles off it. in my opinion, which I know don’t mean much the 1990 World Cup is about the rematch the two teams meeting in the finals. I like how you break down Germany’s run in the World Cup. But in my opinion, you missed the mark when you don’t talk about Argentina‘s trip to the World Cup final and how that win against Italy cost the greatest player ever Diego Armando Maradona everything. And not going into detail about the two Argentinian players that were carded and would miss the final. in my opinion, the yellow card controversy and subsequently rule change by FIFA was because of Claudio Caniggia missing the finals and part of the reason why the finals was so poor. in my opinion, the headline should read something. the rematch one star rising the other one fading. Germany went out to win the World Cup Jurgen Klansman two years later would lift the euros and the greatest player Diego Armando Maradona would soon serve multiple bands for his substance abuse problems, and never be Maradona again at the world stage
Your opinion does matter.
However, I respectively disagree. Argentina was awful all through the tournament. They struggled past teams and only progressed through penalties. When most think of the 1990 world cup its about that England vs. Germany semi-final. England's route was far more interesting than Argentina's route. They scored a last second winner in extra time vs. Belgium, Cameroon gave them an all - mighty scare in the quarter finals, too. The final itself was awful and widely regarded the worst ever. Germany was just much better than Argentina that tournament.
The semi-final between Italy and Argentina was def an important occasion. If I spoke about any Argentina match apart from the final, it would have been that one. But I can't include everything from the World Cup in each video. I try and keep it around the 15ish minutes mark. I'm making this content outside of a full-time job.
@@TheSportsFiles-mm1kg As an American, I just don’t think you emphasize how difficult it is for teams from the South America to perform in Europe at the World Cup. Argentina was trying to do something that had not been done since 1958 win World Cup on European soil. and how extremely difficult it is to win back to back World Cups. and you spend like five minutes talking about an insignificant yellow card for a team that will be playing in the third place game. you could use that time talking about on the road to the finals Argentina beating Brazil, which is not an insignificant match of any type. You never even mention it one of the world’s biggest rivalries. and talking about the significant yellow card in Claudio Caniggia. A bigger story at the time of the 1990 World Cup finals wasn’t about England Germany. It was about Italy, Argentina and the comments made by Diego Armando Maradona. I believe you are a young person. Thanks for this platform in your time.
@vdorosco1 I was alive during the 1990 World Cup, so I'm not a 'young person'. I'm going to respectively disagree with you and leave it at that.
you're crazy Argentina was awful though Maradona was injured by this time he was not in his prime anymore, why wasn't Batistuta considered a national player by this point I've no idea however Cannigia was out of the game for receiving a yellow card but even in the games before it Argentina barely scarped by and in the Final against Germany all they did was foul, and defend trying to get the game to penalties. It was an aweful match, very slow and boring. I remember watching the game at home with a lot of people from the neighborhood in my house, I was of course rooting for Argentina but they played horrible and without a doubt Germany deserved that WC since it was the strongest team of that WC by far. I remember watching that game and being bore out of my mind because of how Argentina decided to play it, very rough, and I remember being enthralled by Germany the whole tournament this was probably Germany's strongest show in all the WC's. Lucky that Argentina even made it to the finals
Jurgen Klinsman didn’t lift the Euros at Euro 92. Denmark won that tournament beating Germany in the final
Germany won the world cup by cheating in the final against Argentina.
The mexican referee really ruined the final game. Germans should have made the olympics diving team for the 1988 Seoul and 1992 Barcelona olympic squad, especially Klinsmann.
Bro forgets the foul on Augentahler just a few minutes earlier that was 100% a penalty. Argentina also should have had at least 2 red cards. No shot on target in 90 minutes.
Handball of god in two consequtive World Cups (against Engand and the USSR in 1990) that's cheating.
@@adriunt6988 What about the foul on Calderon that was also 💯% a penalty ?
@@Trancymind The star of that diving team definitely would have been Völler.
