Franz Beckenbauer 1974 WC Final

[@MrTotalluck]

This guy was playing against one of the greatest teams of all time & on a world cup final...and he seemed to be on his backyard kicking the ball with his kids on a Sunday afternoon. So calmed and poised.

[@jarlbosh]

@Jeremy Grant not having a go mate they’re both equally good defenders, no point in comparing. Personally i prefer pablo Maldini as he could get the ball and dribble. As can franz beckenbauer, it was displayed during the video but i believe that the greatest player of the 1970s was Johan cruyff.

His creativity was at the highest point on that day. In terms of vision, he made the rest of the players look like amateurs, making instant, ever so clever, forward-moving passing decisions. The equivalent of wit in intellectual spheres (no pun intended). He did not retreat as he sometimes did in other games by opting for backward safer passes. In terms of sheer beauty, he displayed arguably the most sublimely beautifully artistic performance in the history of football. Every movement of his body was choreographed to maximize what could only be described as ballet-like aesthetic pleasure. This performance will live in eternity as a timeless work of art as long as people play the sport. Beckenbauer loved beauty. It's manifest even if he never admitted it himself. He was in his own world that day.

He had a similar style of play to Xavi except he was taller and played at the back, quick combinations with teammates in tight spaces, classy long passes to set up chances and elegant turns to avoid getting tackled, while also being an intelligent defender. Brilliant player.

he is just 5'11 where most defenders are over 6ft

Xavi is nothing like Beckenbauer.

[@ferndale6652]

Xavi is 100 times more press resistant. Defenders don't have to play through the press and Xavi had the best vision ever. Ronald Koeman would be a better comparison.

[@PeakDennisReynolds]

@@ferndale6652 Beckenbauer was very press resistant it not as press resistant as Xavi. Yes he was a defender but half of a game he was found somewhere in midfield because that's what the role of a libero was in those days.

[@diogomota1400]

@@ferndale6652 Beckenbauer for most of his career was a central midfielder, and shot the best of his generation. Beckenbauer only became a libero after the 1970 World Cup, Beckenbauer is better at pressing, in game control, leadership, launching, VERY SUPERIOR IN DRIBLE, and in the offensive part. in addition to being far superior in the defensive part. Beckenbauer turned a small team in Germany into a giant and dominant team in Europe. Xavi was part of a great revolution, but with much of the credit to Iniesta and when Barça left he still made the great team of 2015. Beckenbauer, even as a libero or central midfielder, had the ability to carry his team. Beckenbauer's vision of the game is unrivaled

Franz is an authoritative type of player and can always put himself in the best position even when he loses. His refusal to personally mark Johan Cruyff in the 1974 World Cup final showed great character because as a captain, he wanted to win the final by beating the best version of Cruyff. I was lucky enough to have visited the Olimpia Munich stadium during my doctoral studies in Germany between 2004-2007. As I sat on the bench in the stadium, my memories drifted back to a long time ago, the most beautiful final match of all time, West Germany vs Netherlands or Franz Beckenbauer vs Johannes Hendrik Cruyff. Thank you Franz, for being one of the biggest icons of German and world football..!

@2:45 2 v 1 obviously the game was much, much slower then but regardless, he shows his smarts by not being too aggressive and simply defending the space, which delays the attack. Any defender in that situation, will tell you that they prefer the ball going out wide, which creates a tighter angle. His leadership, calmness and positional awareness are incredible and those are just his intangibles.

Was 10years old that days and a big Cruyff fan , but as Linecker said a couple years after this match; “Football is a simple game.

[@amirach]

The best defender ? Absolutely not! He was not a “defender” he was in a unique position that’s like Zidane’s playing a bit back of the midfield. His capability and vision and techinical skills were not less than a typical 10 number. Positioning at the back was his special choice especially after 1970 . And it worked perfectly well. W.Germany national team and Bayern were built upon him, and he took all responsibility and carried all the stress, weight and difficulties. And he made it! That’s why he’s called as “Der Kaiser”. Besides his intelligence and elegance on the pitch, he earned this title with his leadership and beautiful character . It is said, Baresi or Maldini.. Neither Baresi’s technical skills nor Maldini’s intelligence would catch up with his level. He was the complete perfectness…

[@omnivorous65]

As I am watching the Euro 2024 I have to say, the kind of defense they were playing back in the days would not cut it any longer. How unopposed and relaxed both teams were allowed to set up their offensive game. Forwards, wingers and strikers did not seem to be concerned with defending at all.
