    What do you think is the most famous World Cup goal scored in extra time?
  • @ashudhar
    Grosso celebrating his goal is one of the greatest moment of footballing history ❤️
  • @GuiStuff
    Been watching this sport for nearly 30 years now. This was the most beautiful match I've ever seen, period. I never screamed or shouted so much during a game and I'm neither Italian nor German. Pure bliss and exhilaration, a classic match!
  • @Hahaa99
    One of the best matches I have ever seen
  • That Cannavaro interception which lead to Italy's 2nd goal was just 👌🔥
  • @user-tt8vu2tn6f
    One of the best world cup matches i have ever seen. The tension, the quality of both sides, the drama, the goals and the reactions. What a match!
  • We had family friends over to watch this match. After the Fourth of July meal, we all went to our basement to watch. The family friends almost never watched soccer; in retrospect, they probably couldn't have been exposed to a better match. This was quite possibly the greatest World Cup match, ever. Even the heartbreak for the home team seemed appropriate. Looking back on it, this was a German team still on the ascent - two World Cups later, they were champions again. As for Italy, they had such a fabulous roster, it's almost miraculous how it all came together for them. I, for one, will always be grateful I got to see this match live, when it happened, with people whom I cared about. As a soccer fan and to a man, I couldn't ask for more.
  • 1990: West Germany win the World Cup in Italy 2006: Italy win the World Cup in Germany

    The best part of this win was how sure the Germans were to win this game. How arrogant they were (fans, players, journalists, EVERYONE). Then came Italy... super humble, deserved the game, got two goals in less then two minutes and won the World Cup with 0 goals conceded except for an own goal and a non-existing penalty given to France. What a team that was!

    That girl crying after Del Piero goal. One of iconic heartbreaking moment
  • @romanista9776
    Back when Pirlo was the king of international football.
  • @abrarabir7244
    That’s why I love Italy❤️🥰 Italy is always mesmerising 🥰
  • @luckydey4582
    Buffon was simply brilliant not only in that match, but the whole tournament 🔥❤️.
  • My mom will tell you there were 2 times in her life that she was hugged harder than ever.... one was when Baggio scored in 94 against Nigeria to save them from early elimination and the other was when Grosso scored vs Germany! Both times I was hugging her lol.
  • That grosso celebration is legendary one of the most beautiful moments in football❣
  • @AgungRPribadie
    The best world cup ever,, i remember that 2006 i was junior high school
  • @lightning116
    Even though Germany won a 4th World Cup, this loss to Italy hurt. So much. Looking back, there was no shame to lose to that Italian team.
  • @professor5281
    This match I'll never forget. This kind of matches makes a world cup memorable. It was warrrrr
