Jimmy Johnstone vs West Germany | ft. Beckenbauer & Vogts | 16.04.1969

Jinky tries to outplay West Germany's impressive defense with Willi Schulz, Berti Vogts and Karl-Heinz Schnellinger further reinforced by the presence of Franz Beckenbauer in midfield.
The game ended 1:1 - a very Celtic-heavy Scotland had managed to equalise at the very end with a brilliant strike by Bobby Murdoch.

The best winger in Scottish and Celtic history. Legend.

[@glob4067]

Can see he’s a step ahead everyone else

[@hollstrom]

I love football from this era.

[@johnpacino007]

The German lads were too big & powerful for Johnstone. He did have some inspired moments in the 2nd half though.

Jimmy Johnstone scored and had a much better performance in the return game Oct 1969. Scotland unlucky to go down 2-3 and out the 1970 World Cup

[@patrickmclaughlin8424]

Is this the same game when Tommy gemmell chased the german around the park then booted him up in the air 😂😂

[@russellmcghee2172]

Anything similar on Willie Henderson?

[@quimito8759]

Yes. And Peter Marinello too

[@daveated]

Willie loved wee jinky and vice versa.

[@ewantaylor483]

Not his best of games unfortunately !

[@DessieTots]

Did J.J. need glasses?

[@jamesguitar7384]

Actually , I seem to remember it was Willie Henderson who needed contact lenses . What bothers me is why they didn't think they could find room for both of them in the team at the same time . Unbelievable and I support Celtic !

No sure you can see the big cup from quite far away.

Passed to the opposition or falls trying to beat to many men...

[@jamesguitar7384]

@@monkeyface6139 I remember going to a Scotland game and a section of the Scotland support booing Johnstone every time he got the ball .This also happened to Kenny Dalglish. I wonder why .

[@ewantaylor4478]

Not his best game , unfortunately !
