Synopsis
Where were you when Brehme sunk the decisive penalty to win West Germany the 1990 World Cup? Or when Italy hoisted the trophy on 4 July 2006? Some World Cup moments accompany us a lifetime. Memories, good and bad, influence the lives of lots of people. Here there are some of the personal stories behind football’s premier tournament. Englishman Robert Harman tells us about buying his first ever vinyl LP, with the England team’s anthem, during the 1970 World Cup. Then Germany’s Gerd Müller dashed England’s hopes. Argentinian Hernan Marchese recalls the 1986 World Cup in Mexico, when Diego Maradonna’s Hand of God made the best goal ever. And German documentary filmmaker Andi Rogenhagen looks back upon filming at the 1994 World Cup in the US.
