Now he'll get what's coming to him.

Some of the late night comedy shows featured his death, and the Pearly Gates. And the news media can't stop talking about it. Dedicating too much time on a murderer who escaped earthly justice for that crime.

Bernd Hölzenbein, German footballer, wolrd champion of 1974

As to my friends from the Netherlands: The penalty was probably not really a penalty, but the foul in the endphase would have been worth a penalty... And the Netehrlands should have been champions (as they should have 1978)

The most honest German football fan I've ever known!

And may I add: had honesty prevailed, Germany wouldn't have been the worse, because you should have won '66. That, too, was a travesty of refereeing.

When skill fails, just blame the refereeing. ๐Ÿ™‚

Two downvotes from butt-hurt cheating Inselaffen. How surprising. Even in football, Douglas Jardine is their role model.
