Sorry, but I think you covered this story so far out of sequence that it was difficult to follow and really keep straight. First you're saying he missed the cup, but then police were escorting him to games? Confusing there. Also, how could it have been a secret if his wife's screaming saved them, the police presence found clues of a potential kidnapping, which most likely would have made news and then they hung around him, escorting him to matches? This story did not make sense really.
A video about the football blackout on television in England during the first half of the 1985/86 season. After the horrible end of the 1984/85 season, we got highlights of the Charity Shield in August and then that was it. No football on television in England from August 1985 to January 1986. Due to the powers that be not agreeing a deal and hostility between the league and the TV companies.
@@harithdanial141 yeah he changed the game but he wasnt better as a striker as gerd muller athough i do think he's one the all time greats gerd is slightly higher like gerd my 9th cruyff my 10th and im always annoyed when people ranked cruyff higher than pele because pele made the beautiful game popular and invented some of the games modern tatics
@@walkerdaw6 bro, pele is a stiker, muller is a st as well. cruyff on the other hand is lw / cam. and pele is not the one who made the game beautiful, without cruyff, there will be no barca, no messi, and no tiki taka, no xavi, no pep guardiola, no total football. so yes, he deserve to be placed higher than pele
@@walkerdaw6 that's because pele scored many goals assit etc and have 3 World cups. But cruyff's family was threatened and he couldn't play one wc so he doesn't have one. I wonder who is the father of modern football
No, he said they never came closer to winning the world cup after the 70s. Which is correct, because the closest they came back then was going all the way to the final, which also happened in 2010, so, technically, they never actually came closer to winning the world cup than the final.
Pep’s mentor & hero , the Dutch would certainly have been stronger with the Best player in the world in there lineup, it would be like France going to the WC without Zidane , it’s a shame for fans of the game that we only saw Cruyff in one WC but he was brilliant in that tournament also if the Dutch had qualified for Spain 82 Cruyff would have been 35, loads of greats have played in tournaments at 35 Hagi, Stoijkovic, at Euro 2000, Bebeto at 98 WC, the other disappointment was Marco Van Basten missing USA 94 then having to retire, at that WC a fit Van Basten would have been the greatest in the world at the peak of his powers, tragic.
This story is not clear, (1) Johan Cluff and his wife were tied up by 6 armed men in front of his kids (2) the man dropped his gun on the side and the wife picked up the gun and ran screaming to the neighbours. How is that possible (3) the world cup final is played few days after the quarter and semi finals and players travel to the host nation with their families so why are the cluff family relaxing at their flat in Barcelona while they are suppose to be in Argentina or is barcelona a city in Argentina? (4) Johan cluff could have known the men who did that because it is likely he might be a "crook" deal gone wrong and if he had revealed their identity he could have gone down as well so he waited for many years to talk so as to calm the situation down (5) In the 1970s and 1980s a lot of celebrities from the sports and music industry were connected to organized crime and criminal organisation such as the Mafia and the drug cartels so it is likely that he was involved
I agree and said so myself in another post. I doubt seriously that it would have been a secret with that much police presence. In another good video about Andres Escobar, he also said Pablo Escobar was killed by the Pepe Gang; I'm pretty sure he was killed by police (don't all the movies depict him being killed by police?).
If your National Team calls you up, you have to play. You don't get to say "no, I'll sit this one out." FIFA is contracted with the European leagues to use their players whenever they need them. If Kryuff wasn't playing for Holland then he should have been playing for Barcelona that same week. It's possible he took a leave of absence.
Interesting. I'd heard it was because he was opposed to Argentina's Junta and their murderous activities. He spent much of the World Cup working for ITV
For those who say Netherlands would have won WC if Cruyff was present, I would say that the Argentinian team was better than the Netherland's Team and Diego Maradona was a much better player than Johan Cruyff, so anyway Argentina would have won that match that day no matter what.
@@Goldenlegend1000 and maradona a was not even called for that World Cup because the manager was spoiled for choice as he had many talented attacking players
I am not sure why anyone would make up stories about anything as easily verifiable as this. Johan Cruijf is only the most legendary Dutchmen from the 20th century. But... for people like me, just looking for interesting stuff about Johan Cruijf. Most of this video is just made up. Johan Cruijf was robbed... that much is true. He was on is way home from Madrid Airport en was then robbed of his stuff. Which was luggage, shoes and an expensive watch. The robbers were found and prosecuted. That's it, no kidnapping and his kids nor his wife were involved! I don't know why anyone would just blatantly lie about this, just check it yourself
????!!!!! How can you not mention that in may 1978 Michel Hidalgo, coach of France, was also victim of a kidnapping attempt and managed to escape. At the time Argentina was a fierce military dictatorship that kidnapped citizens on a daily basis. Their football team was in an extremely challenging group with France, Italy and Hungary… And Cruyff was the crucial asset of the best team in the world at the time. It's not unlikely that the military junta was behind these two events.
If Cruyff would have played in that WC, even though it was rigged for Argentina because they were on steroids and the WC in itself was a disgrace, Argentina would have lost the final
You guys always makes excuses for argentina win the wc because they dominated the game and tou make excuses cuz you can't digest it ,cryff was blackmailed but that doesn't mean wc was rigged
What do you want us to cover in the next episode of Football Files? 🔥👇

Johan Cruyff -Football legend and a great man, husband and father🙏👍
Johan cruyff didn't deserve that 😪
The Father of modern football indeed a legend
Gerd muller still better

He is wrong in saying that Netherlands never came close again in winning a World Cup, but am I recall a final 12 years ago in South Africa
No, he said they never came closer to winning the world cup after the 70s. Which is correct, because the closest they came back then was going all the way to the final, which also happened in 2010, so, technically, they never actually came closer to winning the world cup than the final.
@@mobolajiade-aina8643 1998 is also close
@@lexkanyima2195 not as close as the others
@@lexkanyima2195 2014 was close cuz they lost in semi finals to argentina
2010 and maybe even the 5-1 in 2014 are a tribute to everything Johan ever did for football.
RIP legend
It is so sad that these things happen to footballers on a daily bases😭
Not daily bases
And this is just more one of the reason why footballers have bodyguards unless they don't have any enemies like kante
It was the Argentian people they knew how the final would have gone of cruyff would have played
Even if your the God of the game
That doens't change the fact that your a human with weaknesses
Always with Johan 💙❤️😘
#Perfect :- love from Nagaland ❣️
a proper movie can be made out of this
R.i.p Cruyff the netherlands is product of you
Big respect from Germany too. He was an outstanding personality
The reason we have "LA PULGA" 😇

Yes

He retired from International play in 1977 due to the incident.
CRUYFF GOAT

Yes, that was a rumour that was going around for years.
why is the conclussion that the reason is unknown.
make your conclusion please
u reused this video like 3 times, y'all ran out of ideas?
Yup I've noticed that as well, they've been reposting videos
So, for all the video's duration, this channel is trying to say Argentina won because Johan did not play for Netherlands in 1978?
Bruh
For those who say Netherlands would have won WC if Cruyff was present, I would say that the Argentinian team was better than the Netherland's Team and Diego Maradona was a much better player than Johan Cruyff, so anyway Argentina would have won that match that day no matter what.
Johan Cruyff was a smart and dynamic man, I don't mean to offend him in anyway.
@@Goldenlegend1000 and maradona a was not even called for that World Cup because the manager was spoiled for choice as he had many talented attacking players
Nah I think it was the 2022 WC that they were gifted

So you have inside information that no one else has? Of course it’s the truth. Cruyff told the whole story.
