The 1990 World Cup had its memorable moments of drama, no question, but as an entire tournament it was a stinker. So much defensive play and tactical foul play typified by a (then) record red card count and a (still) record low goals per game average. The final between West Germany and Argentina was in a sense an ironically fitting conclusion.

[@samkitanohachioji9560]

The best German team ever was the 1972 European Championship winning team that married organisation with real flair. Four of the greatest post war players ever in Breitner, Beckenbauer, Netzer, Muller plus a supporting cast of Hoeness, Grabowski, Heynkes, and 'Hacki' Wimmer. Superb.

To state that Argentina was a terrible team is ridiculous. FIrst, terrible teams dont make the final. 2nd, Pumpido broke his leg in the group stage and Argentina played the rest of the tourney with Goygochea who was basically a rookie at the national team level. Third which is the most crucial fact, Argentina lost 4 starters for the final because of that stupid 2nd yellow card of the tournament rule. Guisti, Olarticoechea, Ruggeri and Caniggia all received second yellows in the semi's vs Italy. This was mentioned in the video when Gascoigne received his second yellow of the tournament vs Germany but not for Argentina in the final.

[@gunternetzer9621]

Terrible teams do make finals - your statements are just semantics.

[@lordsummerisle3139]

Don’t forget also that Maradona was practically playing on one leg in this tournament, with an ankle swollen up like a pumpkin. Argentina did very well under the circumstances

[@hmdwgf]

Italia 90 was one of the worst World Cups ever staged- maybe the worst World Cup ever staged. Few goals, cynically defensive football, bad tempered antics, ugly and violent fouls, and awful officiating. The quality of the matches were generally poor. It was great if you were supporting the Germany, England, Italy, or the Cameroon teams- they were obviously the best teams in the tournament. But the Argentine side epitomized everything that was wrong with that tournament. They had 3 of their best players injured, so they decided to use cynical tactics by whining and bitching their way to the final- it's the most defensive Argentine WC side ever and they got as far as they did in the knockout rounds thanks to brilliant goalkeeping by Goyochochea, who was their reserve goalkeeper. It really was a shame they weren't knocked out by Italy in Naples. It was an ugly tournament in a beautiful country hosting the biggest tournament of the beautiful game. And to cap it off- the final match was, with the 2010 match the worst ever WC final match. The only reason the 1990 and 2010 final matches are worse than the 1994 final match was because the 1990 and 2010 final matches were both really unpleasant in their own way, whereas the 1994 final was just boring. The 1990 final was really bad tempered, very defensive and cynical- it saw 2 players sent off for the first time ever- it was honestly a suitable end to a tournament that had been like that all the way through. The 2010 final was violent, brutal, very defensive, horrendously officiated and featured a Dutch side that decided to resort to brutality to win. And the only positive thing to come from both those matches was that the better team won.

[@BAYAREA-kd1ig]

Absolutely loathed those 2010 & 2014 Dutch teams, just assholes. Also glad Spain beat them in 2010 because that would have been cruel if Holland won in South Africa.
