LONGEST DAY; GREATEST GOALS

On June 21st 1970, longest day in the UK, Brazil won a convincing World Cup Final 4-1 against Italy in a brilliantly played final. The final played in the Azteca, Mexico saw Mario Zagallo, a World Cup winner in 1958 and 1962 became the first ex-player to manage a World Cup winning team.

Yes, he does look a bit like Sven!

Pele became the first player to win three finals as his team were "given" the Jules Rimet Trophy to keep.

Italy's Roberto Boninsegna became the first goal scorer to be substituted in a World Cup Final. Watch for Brazil's 4th goal...a gem!

On June 16th 2002, England lost a quarter-final tie to Brazil in Shizuoka, Japan, having gone one ahead through Michael Owen.

They then conceded goals to 10 man Brazil, with Rivaldo and then Ronaldinho, who put a 40 yard free-kick over David Seaman's head. Ronaldinho was then sent off and England couldn't get their own back with more than 30 minutes left. This was England's 50th World Cup finals match, which seemed to sum up all that had gone before us, apart from in 1966.
