Argentina Vs Germany Finals 1986 and 1990
I expect there will be a lot of looking back to these two finals in the next few days.
I remember 86 as being pretty good, with 90 being a bit of a stinker. Was also an important combination of games as it was fulfilling a "mirrored prophecy" that England were due to win the World Cup in 1998 (From 1966 winners were England, Brazil, Germany, Argentina, Italy (and reflect point), Argentina, Germany, Brazil.............France )Heres some highlights 1986... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpDc3HiuTnM 1990... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0zy_UakAnY |

West Germany v Argentina 1990 with English commentary:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ybj5I44nBnE My favourite bit is the Argentinian players shoving the referee about in frustration after he dishes out their second red card. |

Ah, sorry, I checked the 86 one was in English, but not the 90 one. The full games can be found on there too, I might stick on the 90 one to see how bad it really was (cant have been worse than the semi we have just seen, surely ?) |

Argentina stunk out the World Cup in 1990 like a great big turd. Unfortunately in the final Germany sunk to their level instead of wiping the floor with them. An awful final.

If this Final ends up being even half as good as the 1986 clash then we'll be in for a treat.
But, unfortunately, the way Argentina will set up suggests it won't be anything like that. |

Lets hope its not remembered like that 1990 final which seems to be been played in the same way as the Netherlands v Spain game last time..
TBH Neither strike me as teams who will go out to hack each other and they wouldn't get away with it. |

1986 was a brilliant Final, 1990 not so much although German fans won`t care. Italy should have won the 1990 World Cup, they didn`t concede a goal until the second half of the Semi Final. Walter Zenga....that`s YOU I am referring to.

1990 was the year England had a better team than Germany and a real chance of winning the WC (once Italy were out).

Argentina's 1990 team must be the worst side to ever reach the World Cup final.

That prize has to go to Germany in 2002.
I don't recall them getting as many cards as the Argentinians did back then either. |

Say what you like about Argentina in 1990, at least they didn't kung-fu kick anyone in the final and they never had anyone as dirty as De Jong and Van Bommel.
