The setting is the 1969 European Cup final AC Milan vs Ajax. Milan won 4-1, after consistently overrunning the 2 man midfield from Ajax. Gianni Rivera was given all the time and space to demonstrate both his elegant dribbling skills and his excellent passing abilites. Cruyff got less space from the Milan defense. But at 22, he's a daring solist who embarks on adventurous runs regardless of what he'll find on his path. So who played better? Cast your vote.
Visit 4Dfoot.com - The Home of Classic Football A long standing secret finally burst out in the open during the 2010 World Cup Final. Holland, the country of Cruyff, Bergkamp and Total Football, has another, more darker, side. It's no coincidence that Holland holds the record for the team with the most yellow cards in a World Cup (24 in 2010) and was part of the World Cup match with the most cards (16, Portugal vs Holland 2006). But it's not just a recent phenomenon. Van Bommel and De Jong are merely the last in long line of dirty, physical and mean Dutch players. Even the great sides of the 70s, 80's and 90's could turn a game into a nasty war, whenever needed. When the Dutch can outclass the opponent with technique and fancy passing patterns, that's what they'll do. But when they're faced with a stronger opponent, Holland's dark side appears.

That's how the clash between Brazil and Holland in the 1974 World Cup is often portrayed. But Holland's famous victory left a legacy greater than any pretty metaphor can capture. It proved, decisively, that cohesive, collective movement in both attack and defense is an essential part of modern football. Brazil 1970 may have triumphed on sheer talent alone, they would be the last side to ever do so. Sebastiaan van de Water

But there was something else about him that caught the attention. He never seemed to look down at the ball. Read the full story on Mario Sergio here www.4dfoot.com
