WEST GERMANY ROUGH IT UP?

July 25th 1966, West Germany, as it was then known, beat the Soviet Union, as it was then, in the World Cup semi-final at Goodison Park in front of about 43,000. Remember the ground had to lose some of the standing areas behind each goal, as advised by FIFA to keep a distance between the crowd and goal, thereby cutting down the attendance.
This was a tough tackling game and Sabo, the Soviet half back was injured in the early minutes in an attempt to maim Beckenbauer. He eventually had to leave the pitch at half time.
The Soviet winger Chislenko was sent off just before half time, following "an incident", when he was penalised for kicking Held.  There were no subs so the Soviets were down to 9 men. This clip, shows Yashin at his best BUT NO NASTIES!

In the quarter-finals, two days earlier, against Uruguay, at Hillsborough, the Germans were holding on to a 0-0 draw, in an even game, until the South Americans lost their cool when their penalty claim was turned down and this sparked a campaign of "taking no prisoners". Two of their team were sent off in the early stage of the second half. Captain Troche retaliated to a foul by Emmerich, and kicked the German in the stomach. Centre-forward Silva fouled Haller who rolled around the pitch like Neymar, convincing the ref (Jim Finney of England!!) who sent Silva off. Down to 9 men the Uruguayans lost 4-0.

In Group matches the Germans first beat Switzerland 5-0, who had left out two key players for not keeping a curfew!

Argentina came next and this was a bruising affair at Villa Park and it was Jorge Albrecht who had his marching orders following a high tackle on Weber. He had previously been cautioned for rugby tackling Haller. The game ended 0-0 and the Argentinians went on to qualify to play England in the Quarter-final in a controversial game previously mentioned recently.

West Germany beat Spain 2-1, a game the Spanish had to win to carry on to the q-finals. Seeler scored the winner and he therefore had scored in three consecutive World Cups, a distinction only held by Pele at that time.

In the final.........la,la,la
