All sorts of rumours that the Argentinian junta paid off Peru in that final second group stage match that Argentina "coincidentally" needed to win by four clear goals to reach the final. This after Argentina delayed their match against Peru until after the match between Brazil and Poland ended so they'd know what was required. That world cup stank to high heaven!
All of Argentina's matches with the exception of the final kicked off at 7.15pm local time, so that the host’s matches could be seen by the Argentinian people on TV. All the other group matches kicked off at 1.45pm or 4.45pm local time, to suit television audiences in Europe. Also, as in the 1974 World Cup, it was agreed that the host nation’s matches should not be played at the same time as other games being played, so as to maximise the attendance at any matches not involving the hosts - remember international travel wasn't so easy back then, and half empty stadia was quite common at World Cups during the 1970's and 80's. There are a lot of people who have claimed that the kick off time for Argentina v Peru was changed in the week leading up to the match, but the kick off times for all games involving Argentina were announced long before the tournament started. What FIFA should have done, was delay the Brazil v Poland match to start at 7.15pm as well, even though that game would've been watched by a much smaller crowd.
Remember Holland hitting the post in the final minute of the Final which would of made it 2-1 to the Dutch!! For years I have wondered what would have happened if the ball had gone in!! ⚽⚽
in all fairness, FIFA's calendar should have made Brazil vs Argentina clash in the last, 3d round of the second group stage. That would have been like a semi-final, just like Italy vs Netherlands in the first group.
congratulations Argentina 🇦🇷 for becoming world champion🥇 congratulations Netherland 🇳🇱 for becoming second, the runner up🥈 congratulations Brazil 🇧🇷 for becoming third place winner🥉

When I saw how you crudely and clumsily edited down Archie Gemmill's official 'Goal of the Tournament' I turned off. You repeat the same penalty kick three times, but obsessively cut all build up play. A really poorly produced collection.
La coppa più rubata e quella del 1986 che ha vinto con Maradona. Quella del 1966 con il gol fantasma assai dubbiosa e quella del 2014 Germania Argentina se diceva che il gol de higuain era regolare
