France, Italy, Brazil played excellent football, Italy more from 2nd Round but they are easily three of the most remembered teams of all time. I was gutted when Brazil got knocked out but Italy did play well!
A point of order: Nelinho's goal at 15:11 is from the 1978 World Cup. It's fascinating watching these programs about World Cups of long ago. Each competition from 1966 to 1986 has its own distinctly unique flavour. Something that is sadly absent from nearly all subsequent World Cups.
You obviously, deliberately stopped before 1990. Did you not think Italia 90 had its own unique style? I'm curious why you didnt include it. I watched the excellent part 2 of the Sky documentary on Italia 90 and somebody said it was "the last of the old world cups". I didn't know what he meant but im guessing he meant the same as you, despite the 4 year difference. I fell out of love with football during the 2010 World Cup. As a Coventry fan, i am no stranger to underachievement, disappointment and abject failure. So it wasn't because England played poorly. It wasn't Rooney's disgusting reaction at being ctiticised by the England fans (all of whom would have had to make sacrifices of one type or other, to be in South Africa) What made me turn away? During the tournament i realised that the vast majotity of the England players saw the tournament, as an inconvenience they had to tolerate, rather than a career highlight. I thought back to the likes of Stuart Pearce, Terry Butcher, Paul Gascoigne, Tony Adams, David Beckham even and it made me realise, it wasn't the same game. I stopped singing "player worship" songs, sticking only to club based songs. A year or so later, i stopped attending games after it dawned on me i was giving up my time and handing over £25 to be made miserable or furious. What happened to joy? I didn't watch England again until 2018 I would like to think the current squad WANT to be at the tournaments and Southgate has got them playing for each other as a unit rather than relying on one or two stars. Its ridiculous that we have a World Cup in December to distract me from moaning about Christmas. It just leaves me aghast that prior to the fortnight before the tournament began, nobody in the mainstream media or the world of football has stopped and said "Hang on.... It's WHERE?" I've said enough.
@@themanfromvolantis "Last of the Old World Cups" or beginning of the New World Cups? I thought 1990 marked the beginning of the new polished looking world cups. Even the commentator's line was as clear as if he were speaking to you in the same room. In terms of a spectator sport it was possibly the worst world cup in FIFA's history. Other than England v Cameroon, I can't remember a good game. The final was appalling. Incidentally, I'm in Ireland and it was our first ever World Cup; but the games we played were dire. The brand of football we played was dire. I guess it put the country on the map though. 1990 was the beginning of a terminal decline in World Cups. The standard was never achieved the heights that were reached in the 70s and early 80s. Just my opinion of course. There are 32 teams currently participating in the world cup, which is far too many IMO. I won't be watching it.
I was 12 years old and my parents are Northern Irish.I remember their sheer joy when Gerry Armstrong scored the winner v Spain.Also watching the most gifted team of my lifetime Brazil.Happy days.
Looking at this again, credit to Gerry Armstrong. In an unfamiliar wide role he worked like a horse with no little skill and took players on and beat them for pace, scoring three goals.
I mainly remember this tournament for Socrates, he was just a Rolls Royce of a player and years later I was fortunate eniugh to shake this legend's hand - on Portobello beach in my hometown of Edinburgh (he was promoting some footballing camp/academy !) of all places!. RIP - a true world-class player !
This World Cup is one of the best ever; largely because there were so many memorable elements about it and there was so much to talk about. There were so many shock results, so much drama, a few really good matches and off-pitch drama (The Disgrace of Gijon). That WC had everything.

No. A misconception. England needed a 2-0 win against Spain. When the goal difference is the same, the team that scored the most goals should go in to the next round. In the first phase, both Italy and Cameroon had 3 points. Both had a goal difference of zero. But Italy went through. Why? Because Italy scored more goals (2, as opposed to Cameroon's 1). If England had won 1-0 against Spain, it would've had the same points as Germany (3 points), and the same goal difference (+1), but Germany would've gone through because of their higher scoring (2 goals, as opposed to 1).
Excellent documentary, please upload the full version if you can, Brazil should have won that World Cup without a doubt, they delivered the most beautiful style of football as it should be...that Brazilian team was "the dream team"
the UDSSR was cheated, the deserved two penaltys against Brasil, watch the full match, the same against Scotland!! Brasil was as good as many thinks they was
Mundial 82 without Poland. Only 5 second. Please remind Poland-Italy 0-0 in group match, Poland - Belgium 3-0. Belgium vice master of Euro 80. Poland - Italy 0-2 without Boniek, and Poland - France 3-2 . Finaly Poland 3rd place. Sorry for my english.
3rd place in 1974 as well. Poland had a good team between 1972 and 1982. They knocked us English out qualifying for 74 WC. They knocked Italy out in 74 as well in the WC. Might have been different for them if Boniek had played against Italy in 82. The 1982 WC was a decent competition.
Poland had an excellent Team and great Players such as Smuda, Buncol and of course Zibi Boniek...however Italy after having beaten Argentina and Brasil were unstoppable
Hermoso y raro mundial. Italia no fue el mejor equipo pero le ganó a Brasil y Alemania. Después que Dino Zoff levantara la copa nació José Mourinho y el 95% de técnicos de fútbol actual que han destruído la estética en este deporte.
Italia fue, con diferencia, el mejor equipo, en términos de calidad, táctica y determinación, y no ganó por casualidad a todos sus rivales, Argentina, Brasil y Alemania.
Only England could get knocked out of the World Cup despite being unbeaten. Typical of our luck in international tournaments. Plus that assault on Battiston by Schumacher was criminal. It wasn’t a foul it was GBH.
England went out of the 1982 finals because English attacks did not know how to penetrate a deep, well organised foreign defence with a good sweeper. If Ron Greenwood had had time, or perhaps insisted that England play his way (with Wilkins as a libero and balls played into feet) then England might have taken 3rd Place or have even won the World Cup. I say that with the benefit of hindsight because as it turned out there was very little to beat in Spain. All the major countries suffered with injuries or other problems and Brazil proved to have, not a team, but only a brilliant midfield. So, England at their best could have done it. But that would have meant playing Keegan and Brooking from the start in the vital game against Spain and there I believe Greenwood allowed himself to follow the old adage…. ‘never change a winning team.’ I don’t blame Greenwood for that - I blame others: those who I think persuaded him, and in my book, Ron went out a success, doing far better than anyone expected at the time.
FOR ME BRUNI CONTI ITALY'S #16 WAS THE BEST But PAOLO ROSSI ITALY'S #20 GOTTED EVERY THING BEST PLAYER AND THE GOAL SCORER'S WITH 6 GOALS IN LAST 3 GAMES
Not a particularly great world cup but two of the best matches ever Brazil v Italy and West Germany v France and possibly the most attractive team of all time Brazil.
You have no idea what you are talking about. It is BY FAR the best world cup EVER. Five teams had the potentials to win the world cup: Brazil, Italy, Germany, France and Poland.
That is without doubt among the most ludicrous comments I have ever read. The 82 WC is the best I've ever seen, a thought echoed by many. What are you going to say? The 1938 tournament was better? 2010? You must have very high standards.
I agree with everyone here, 1982 one of the greatest world cups. Personally it would have been nice if either Brazil or France won it with their stylish foorball.
What a shameful match happened in this world cup Germany had to fix match against Austria one goal each to qualify for next round on the expenses of my country Algeria which we beat them 2/1 first match, since then fifa changed the rules of the tournament, that final matches of the group has to be played on the same time
The german team knew that their chances against Italy were limited since they had an energy absorbing semifinal against France. After this game they had to wait for a delayed flight in Seville to bring them back into their hotel. Plus Italy had 24h more to recover.
@@0020ecapa Braindead comment! It looks like you never tried to analyse a sporting result. Every match has it's background and prehistory. The testimony came from some german players decades! after the match. During a time where non of them had to find excuses. Sorry to do your homework. But I don't charge you nothing. It's ok and free....
For some reason the Germans had a bad team spirit and problems behind the scenes - maybe Paul Breitner had got on people's nerves after he was recalled, as he often did - great player though.
They could have rested for seven more days but Italy was superior in defence, midfield and attack and as a team one of the best ever in quality, tactics and determination. There was no match and Italy, who also missed a penalty, could have easily won by 4-5 goals but at 3-0 they stopped and administered the result.
What a joke. Schumacker said he seen Batiston lying there and knew it was bad. So instead of helping and calling medical staff immediately you turn and walk away? When you look at this video you can clearly see he didn't even look at the ball and was focused on taking Bastiton out. He is no human
My first WC though memories are vague now; I was 11 years old. Mostly I remember: Belgium beating Argentina Italy being awful in group stage England back in tournament football W. Germany v Austria (oh dear!) THAT BRAZIL TEAM Eder’s goal. Zico’s free kick. Northern Ireland beating Spain Maradona’s red card Gentile’s Terminator before Terminator was a thing Spanish fans jeering at England team bus, chanting “Ar-gen-tina!” “Ar-gen-tina!” No way in that dumb format were England going through after that. Harald Schumacher and the guy on the stretcher Boniek and Lato Rossi v Brazil All those perms And Marco Tardelliiiiiiii!!!
Rest in Peace dad. The last day i can honestly say i remember spending with you. 😢😢😢i still despise Italy and Paolo Rossi till this day for beating probably one of the greatest teams to never win a cup.
@@gunternetzer9621 Well not all are so clean like the Germans and the Austrians and thanks to their Honesty all last groups games are played at the same time since 82 or how can we forget the clean and correct German Keeper Schumacher or the clean and honest German Players Völler and Hölzenbein and the best and most successful Simulations with which Penalties Germany robbed the World Cups of 74 & 90.
Talking to myself .. Me : Wait .... WHY did the BBC of all people choose to include a (SUPERB) Brazil goal from 1978 Argentina World Cup 3rd place match v. ITALY in the highlights of the 82 World Cup tho ?? Me : Oh shut up. Did you see what a (SUPERB) goal it was .... it should be included in EVERY World Cup's highlights so long they mention Brazil. Me : Yeah you're right. Me : Good. Now shut up and watch the rest of the damn video, will ya ??
You beat Argentina because they were distracted by the Falklands War. You beat a German team that had been defeated by Algeria and had to cheat with Austria in order to qualify for the second round. Against Brazil, you should never have won: Gentile tore up Zico's shirt inside the 18 yard box, which should've been a penalty for Brazil, , and there should've been a red card for Gentile. The third Italian goal should not have been anything, because the Brazilian goalkeeper's body was on the outside of play, but the ball was on the inside. It should never have been a corner.
Claudio Gentile...never has a name been less appropriate :) A master of The Dark Arts as they used to say, and with a convicted match fixer up front scoring all the goals it was hard to have a favourite in that World Cup final.
@@hugodrax71 He was sent off once for Juventus but only for a deliberate handball. He was good but brutal, like he said 'Football is not for Ballerinas' and 'You have to know how to foul properly'. The treatment he handed out to Maradona and Zico in this tournament would never be allowed today.
@@Veaseify My mistake, you're quite right - for two yellows, the second a deliberate handball. But never sent off for a violent tackle or conduct.

@@hugodrax71 The rules existed in those days to punish players like Gentile but a host of incompetent and bent referees with no character wouldn't do it .
@@gunternetzer9621 Bent and incompetent? There was no fourth official back then, or cameras covering every moment. The referee has only one pair of eyes so if he missed something and the linesmen didn't spot a foul then things got missed. There were plenty of 'hard' players in that era, not just Gentile. There were quite a few playing in the English leagues, believe it or not. Hunter, Harris, Smith, Bremner, Souness...

In the first phase, both Italy and Cameroon had 3 points. Both had a goal difference of zero. But Italy went through. Why? Because Italy scored more goals (2, as opposed to Cameroon's 1). If England had won 1-0 against Spain, it would've had the same points as Germany (3 points), and the same goal difference (+1), but Germany would've gone through because of their higher scoring (2 goals, as opposed to 1).
Excellent documentary, please upload the full version if you can, Brazil should have won that World Cup without a doubt, they delivered the most beautiful style of football as it should be...that Brazilian team was "the dream team"
There is a good documentary about that team and the fall out from them not winning it and how the attuide of pure football was gone for good after it
Keep humming, humming bird. The best team won the world cup in 82 and that was ITALY 🇮🇹
the UDSSR was cheated, the deserved two penaltys against Brasil, watch the full match, the same against Scotland!! Brasil was as good as many thinks they was
@@emadmohamedable Boring team.
@@emadmohamedable your talking nonsense
Mundial 82 without Poland. Only 5 second. Please remind Poland-Italy 0-0 in group match, Poland - Belgium 3-0. Belgium vice master of Euro 80. Poland - Italy 0-2 without Boniek, and Poland - France 3-2 . Finaly Poland 3rd place. Sorry for my english.
3rd place in 1974 as well. Poland had a good team between 1972 and 1982. They knocked us English out qualifying for 74 WC. They knocked Italy out in 74 as well in the WC. Might have been different for them if Boniek had played against Italy in 82. The 1982 WC was a decent competition.
Poland had an excellent Team and great Players such as Smuda, Buncol and of course Zibi Boniek...however Italy after having beaten Argentina and Brasil were unstoppable

Hermoso y raro mundial. Italia no fue el mejor equipo pero le ganó a Brasil y Alemania. Después que Dino Zoff levantara la copa nació José Mourinho y el 95% de técnicos de fútbol actual que han destruído la estética en este deporte.
Italia fue, con diferencia, el mejor equipo, en términos de calidad, táctica y determinación, y no ganó por casualidad a todos sus rivales, Argentina, Brasil y Alemania.
You forget Argentina too😜
Italia si fue el mejor equipo en 82.
Italy were the best team of 1982 , maybe they didn’t start we’ll , but they sure finished well beating the very best teams on the way .
Great tournament but 1970 better!

Only England could get knocked out of the World Cup despite being unbeaten. Typical of our luck in international tournaments. Plus that assault on Battiston by Schumacher was criminal. It wasn’t a foul it was GBH.
England went out of the 1982 finals because English attacks did not know how to penetrate a deep, well organised foreign defence with a good sweeper. If Ron Greenwood had had time, or perhaps insisted that England play his way (with Wilkins as a libero and balls played into feet) then England might have taken 3rd Place or have even won the World Cup. I say that with the benefit of hindsight because as it turned out there was very little to beat in Spain. All the major countries suffered with injuries or other problems and Brazil proved to have, not a team, but only a brilliant midfield. So, England at their best could have done it. But that would have meant playing Keegan and Brooking from the start in the vital game against Spain and there I believe Greenwood allowed himself to follow the old adage…. ‘never change a winning team.’ I don’t blame Greenwood for that - I blame others: those who I think persuaded him, and in my book, Ron went out a success, doing far better than anyone expected at the time.
@@gunternetzer9621 good comment, well said. 👍👍
For ever shame on Schumaker for that
At least one Brazilian made the 1982 World Cup final.
"We've qualified for the second round of the world cup so go and get drunk lads".........And they wonder why they cant win it
Bryan Robson probably had 18 shots just to get warmed up for the France game.
Ron greenwood wasn’t the man they needed in the hot seat, I’m sure if cloughie was in charge he would have done a lot better...!!
Only if he'd been managing England in the Home Championships.
Good Lord, I think Tardelli was the best player at the World Cup.
That was Paulo Roberto Falcao.
FOR ME BRUNI CONTI ITALY'S #16 WAS THE BEST
But PAOLO ROSSI ITALY'S #20 GOTTED EVERY THING BEST PLAYER AND THE GOAL SCORER'S WITH 6 GOALS IN LAST 3 GAMES
@@gunternetzer9621 No it was Paolo Rossi.
Not a particularly great world cup but two of the best matches ever Brazil v Italy and West Germany v France and possibly the most attractive team of all time Brazil.
You have no idea what you are talking about. It is BY FAR the best world cup EVER. Five teams had the potentials to win the world cup: Brazil, Italy, Germany, France and Poland.
That is without doubt among the most ludicrous comments I have ever read. The 82 WC is the best I've ever seen, a thought echoed by many. What are you going to say? The 1938 tournament was better? 2010? You must have very high standards.
The 2 best games in the tournaments history.
+Colin Jennings You joking? '82 one of the best ever.
I agree with everyone here, 1982 one of the greatest world cups. Personally it would have been nice if either Brazil or France won it with their stylish foorball.
Northern Ireland is survived by the Republic of Ireland at the world cup level
This was COLOUR and MAGIC, the old first division was black and white dullness.
Fifa controversy with Sepp Blater! Never....
15:12 is a beautiful goal but it should not be included in this vidri becausr it from the 78 World Cup. the third place match to be exact.
26:22 - Schumacher is an ABBA Fan!
Commentator saying Whiteside's booking was undeserved 😂He'd have broken the guy's legs if he'd made contact!
What a shameful match happened in this world cup
Germany had to fix match against Austria one goal each to qualify for next round on the expenses of my country Algeria which we beat them 2/1 first match, since then fifa changed the rules of the tournament, that final matches of the group has to be played on the same time
Lots of good things to talk about with this clip, but Schumacher offering to pay for Battistons teeth was funny I have to admit
He should have been sent off and banned
not one of the greatest world Cups yet it produced the two classic matches -
It turns out Spain were trash, and the team had major internal issues all over the place. The Real Sociedad block of players failed miserably.
Germany deserved to lose the final,schumacher was a criminal
The german team knew that their chances against Italy were limited since they had an energy absorbing semifinal against France. After this game they had to wait for a delayed flight in Seville to bring them back into their hotel. Plus Italy had 24h more to recover.
Excuses. Just accept it.

Braindead comment!
It looks like you never tried to analyse a sporting result.
Every match has it's background and prehistory.
The testimony came from some german players decades! after the match.
During a time where non of them had to find excuses.
Sorry to do your homework.
But I don't charge you nothing.
It's ok and free....
For some reason the Germans had a bad team spirit and problems behind the scenes - maybe Paul Breitner had got on people's nerves after he was recalled, as he often did - great player though.
They could have rested for seven more days but Italy was superior in defence, midfield and attack and as a team one of the best ever in quality, tactics and determination. There was no match and Italy, who also missed a penalty, could have easily won by 4-5 goals but at 3-0 they stopped and administered the result.
@@EVOZORE If Germany had had their three key players Rummenigge, Schuster and Breitner fit, they would have walked it.
Who is the commentator?
For the show or the games?
What a joke. Schumacker said he seen Batiston lying there and knew it was bad. So instead of helping and calling medical staff immediately you turn and walk away? When you look at this video you can clearly see he didn't even look at the ball and was focused on taking Bastiton out. He is no human
For ever shame on Schumacher. Despreciable act and beaviour
What league do Yugoslavia play in? I've never heard of them?
My first WC though memories are vague now; I was 11 years old.
Mostly I remember: Belgium beating Argentina
Italy being awful in group stage
England back in tournament football
W. Germany v Austria (oh dear!)
THAT BRAZIL TEAM
Eder’s goal. Zico’s free kick.
Northern Ireland beating Spain
Maradona’s red card
Gentile’s Terminator before Terminator was a thing
Spanish fans jeering at England team bus, chanting “Ar-gen-tina!” “Ar-gen-tina!” No way in that dumb format were England going through after that.

All those perms
And

Rest in Peace dad. The last day i can honestly say i remember spending with you. 😢😢😢i still despise Italy and Paolo Rossi till this day for beating probably one of the greatest teams to never win a cup.
How the hell did Schumacher stay on the ground. I Love many things about German culture but their football team to this day is not one of them.
the best italian team ever justice was served
Dirty, cynical, time wasting.
@@gunternetzer9621 Well not all are so clean like the Germans and the Austrians and thanks to their Honesty all last groups games are played at the same time since 82 or how can we forget the clean and correct German Keeper Schumacher or the clean and honest German Players Völler and Hölzenbein and the best and most successful Simulations with which Penalties Germany robbed the World Cups of 74 & 90.

Talking to myself ..
Me : Wait .... WHY did the BBC of all people choose to include a (SUPERB) Brazil goal from 1978 Argentina World Cup 3rd place match v. ITALY in the highlights of the 82 World Cup tho ??

You beat Argentina because they were distracted by the Falklands War. You beat a German team that had been defeated by Algeria and had to cheat with Austria in order to qualify for the second round. Against Brazil, you should never have won: Gentile tore up Zico's shirt inside the 18 yard box, which should've been a penalty for Brazil, , and there should've been a red card for Gentile. The third Italian goal should not have been anything, because the Brazilian goalkeeper's body was on the outside of play, but the ball was on the inside. It should never have been a corner.
Thank you Algeria should qualify if Germany had not cheated with Austria 1/1 it tooks shemagher 35 years to say yes we fixed the match

Claudio Gentile...never has a name been less appropriate :) A master of The Dark Arts as they used to say, and with a convicted match fixer up front scoring all the goals it was hard to have a favourite in that World Cup final.
Well, it was very easy for me. Actually, Gentile was a brilliant defender - and never sent off in his entire career. No shrinking violets in that era.
@@hugodrax71 He was sent off once for Juventus but only for a deliberate handball. He was good but brutal, like he said 'Football is not for Ballerinas' and 'You have to know how to foul properly'. The treatment he handed out to Maradona and Zico in this tournament would never be allowed today.
@@Veaseify My mistake, you're quite right - for two yellows, the second a deliberate handball. But never sent off for a violent tackle or conduct. No, the treatment handed out to Maradona etc wouldn't be allowed today - because the rules have changed and the game has changed. There were 'hard' players from all nations at that time - Passarella, Stielike, Souness, Goiketchea...the Dutch in '78 were no pussycats. Gentile was hardly alone.
@@hugodrax71 The rules existed in those days to punish players like Gentile but a host of incompetent and bent referees with no character wouldn't do it .
@@gunternetzer9621 Bent and incompetent? There was no fourth official back then, or cameras covering every moment. The referee has only one pair of eyes so if he missed something and the linesmen didn't spot a foul then things got missed. There were plenty of 'hard' players in that era, not just Gentile. There were quite a few playing in the English leagues, believe it or not. Hunter, Harris, Smith, Bremner, Souness...
Yet another England World Cup debacle
You just seemed to run out of ideas and goals in the 2nd round.

That is true, Scirea does look off. Even with the commentary and watching that goal loads of times I never picked up on that!

Italy 1982 were half shit, 0.75 lucky.
Betting Brazil was a huge surprize even for the italian themselves. Beating Argentina was normal (Belgium did too).
Beating Ploand without their best player Boniek. Germany should've never been in the final. They were poor both technically and ethically. Plus if you chech out attendance numbers for most matches, you will be very shocked and disappointed
