FIFA World Cup 1966- Team England:

Hurst's shot hit the crossbar, and bounced down and hit the ground either onto or just over goal line. Whether the ball actually crossed the goal line or not has been a matter of discussion for decades, and this goal, known as the "Ghost Goal", has become part of World Cup history.

FIFA World Cup 1998:

All the Romania Footballers colored their hair blonde and hence was difficult to figure out who's who!

"Total Football": The label for an influential theory of tactical association football in which any player can take over the role of any other player in the team. Anyone can be successively an attacker, a midfielder and a defender

Brazil 4 — 1 Italy Final 1970 FIFA World Cup Mexico 70:

Brazil's fourth goal, with five minutes to go, is considered one of the greatest goals ever scored in the history of the tournament.

A total of 8 outfield players from Brazil were involved, encapsulating 'the beautiful game' in one glorious sweeping move.

Argentina v England- The tournament where Maradona's goal had been termed most famously as the HAND OF GOD.

Argentina v England, played on 22 June 1986, was a football match between Argentina and England in the quarter-finals of the 1986 FIFA World Cup at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. The game was held four years after the Falklands War (Spanish: Guerra de las Malvinas) between Argentina and the United Kingdom (of which England forms part) and was a key part in developing the intense football rivalry between the two nations. It was also a match which included two of the most famous goals in football history, both scored by Diego Maradona. His first, after fifty-one minutes, was the Hand of God goal, in which Maradona scored with an illegal, but unpenalised, handball. His second, after fifty-four minutes, saw him dribble past six England players, and in 2002 this was voted Goal of the Century by FIFA.com voters. Argentina won the game 2–1 and went on to win the 1986 World Cup with a victory over West Germany in the final. Maradona won the golden ball for player of the tournament whilst England's goalscorer on the day, Gary Lineker, won the golden shoe for being the tournament's top scorer.
