5.0 out of 5 stars Football "came home" for the first and last time., 8 Jul 2000

By A Customer

Due to the consistent failure of England teams to recapture that glory, the World Cup Final of 1966 remains the only day on which England regained the game it had given to the rest of the world. Let us not forget, though, that it was a great game of football. Geoff Hurst became the first and only player to date to score a hat-trick in a World Cup Final ( remarkable, really, from a player who many believed should have been dropped in favour of Jimmy Greaves ). Hurst's second goal may not have clearly crossed the line ( the Germans certainly didn't think it should have counted ) but that could take nothing away from an England team that kept battling and, overall, were the better team on the day. Sadly, the late Bobby Moore remains the only England captain in history to hold the premier trophy of the game his country gave to the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's happening again!, 6 Sep 2001

By	D. Stackhouse "Doug Stackhouse" (WINSLOW, ME USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

In the past few months, since the appointment of Sven-Goran Eriksson as England coach, I have seen England rapidly become a team to be reckoned with. I was six years old back when we won it all and have suffered with the rest of the nation ever since. It was a great victory to be sure, but it was on our home soil and a couple of major teams (Brazil and Italy to be precise) were rebuilding for the future. I believe our nation has been living under the shadow of 1966 for far too long, and a fresh triumph is long overdue. If David Beckham lifts the cup in Asia 2002 it will be even sweeter than 1966 because it will be unexpected. England are a young, powerful team who have just begun to find themselves. It's been a long time since we could say that. Roll on Korea/Japan 2002.
