However, VI World Championship has an official finish. For joy! Against one another are the most decent. So far – no loss, with only one draw. Deserved! Something curious: Sweden and Brazil are the only ones in this World Cup, playing with golden-yellow shirts. One of them will have to come up with a backup team. “Short stick” falls on the Brazilians. They will play in blue. Is it a bad omen? Swedes have already secured the silver – previously unknown success, unique and never thereafter. But the appetite comes with eating and more in the 4th marks Lihodolm minutes – 1:0 for Sweden. Will the miracle? … No! Against Tre Kronur are stood not only 11 excellent, great players (Brazil has always kidded inimitable masters of the leather ball), but also a superb team. Improvisation are subject to a lean organization in the game of the composition, skillfully led by coach Feola outside and “playmaker” Diddy inside. Dual attacks are not an end in itself, a path to successful implementation of total superiority. Soon the result was equalized by Vava, then again he displayed his first. After the break came the turn of Pele. His performance in celebration of the third goal (goalkeeper transferred to an external shock folded by air – fantastic “drop sheet”) and now appears as cinema textbooks in football, but so far no one has repeated. Mario “Lobo” ( “Ant”) Zagata increased to 4:1. Swedes do what they can, to defend with honor, even counter-attacked, occasionally – Simonson reduces the difference, but shortly before the end Pele again no mistake – 5:2. Brazil is the champion of the world. After 5 ‘attempts to fly “at last the greatest in football is in the highest float freely, gently, beautifully, naturally! Brazilian-born is a legend. She parades around the world with clarions already 50 years for great joy and pleasure of all. Ideraldo master Bellini takes the Cup. After him and others. First kiss with Golden Nike “is not never forget. A nation falls into euphoria, no! a nation falls into insanity, a nation crying with happiness. Date of 29 June is declared a national holiday. Fighters accompanied the presidential plane, which is harvested characters. In Rio millions of them welcome. Chanted the names of their favorites to fit. These names will remain forever inscribed in golden letters in the folk memory. Brazil celebrates its first big victory. There will be more … A player who is “in the most? Brilliant dribbler, with lightning fints, folded master stroke (his patent was called. “Incident” or “drop sheet” of a direct free kick – remember Stoichkov and his goal v Germany in the World ‘94) measured at mm feed, the author of goals to remember for years – that’s Valdir Pereira, known to the world as Didi. He was elected player of the VI N 1 World Championship. And why? Because the most prominent representative of those first to figure out that the ideal individual technique of the player is worth nothing unless it is subordinated to the collective. And with a sense of strategy, immediate assessment of the situation on the ground and making the right decision, Didi became a “director” of success in the operator of the one ahead of its time, Brazilian football computer. A Pele? He even arrived in Sweden as anyone unknown to Edson Arantes Nasimento and leaves with World Cup glory. Until 17 years! Will become the greatest footballer on the planet Earth. Should it some time. Garrincha And yet his time had come. Wait only 4 years. We will mention two names: Nils Lindholm – one of the legendary Swedish trio – “Gre-No-Li and Raymond Kopa – one of the major French players of all time. A teammate Zhust Fountain is incredible ‘58 Cvetovnoto top scorer with 13 goals unique. Another record unsurpassed before, and now and probably forever. Far behind with 6 goals and finish the tournament Pele man brought the world title for Germany 4 years ago – Helmut Rahn.

The overall conclusion after playing in the finals is that the teams played extra games, obviously not recovered his power, but the mere turn of the championship obviously shows that those who go the semifinals, are the most dignified “square” in world football in 1950. But what happened in the 4 game, which was “cut head” of the other 4? Swedes are definitely better than the players of the USSR – 2:0, Germany is “sweating and struggling, but many will score the winning goal – 1:0 against Yugoslavia. The French more than firm against Red-haired North Ireland – 4:0. And the Brazilians? Tough match against Wales. Sammy makes his case. Terrible play somehow, even frivolous. You can tell that they are much better, but .. However, and this match will go down in history. The first goal for Brazil’s Pele! Will take years. King (only 17 years in Sweden ‘58) will play over 1300 games, will score over 1200 goals, but in hundreds of interviews will argue that he has never scored a more important and more beautiful goal from the one which beat Brazil Wales 1:0. And indeed: Pele is the boundary of the box with his back toward the door. Took the ball to chest, and take it with her right leg above the transfer head, rotates 180 degrees to the left leg and crashing it into the network. All this – without the ball to touch the ground. Virtuoso! Turn matches the truth. The most spectacular semi-finals and finals in World Cup history. Some say that in football there are no records, but what they say about it: In the last 4 games of the World Cup, when distributing the medals have scored 27 goals (6.75 per match). One of the teams will score 10 (just under 5 per game), two players will have 5, only the finale viewers will enjoy a whole 7 goals. So this is a real world records. Unique and incredible! In the first semifinal of the Swedes give everything and your goals Skoglund, Gren and Hamrin deposed world champion Germany with 3:1. Years after the World ‘58, however, speak of the other semifinal. Many believe this is the best match of the 20th century. Both teams excellent export performance, in which Stacy (will receive a “Golden Ball” at the end of the 1958.) Company and also the supreme masters for the first time in this World Cup and Zhilmar (Brazilian goalkeeper) it is necessary to bear balls from his net after firing jewel “of Fontaine and Roger Piantoni. But Brazilians are infallible. It turns out that they have “driymtim”. Carioca delightful way to outplay “Rooster” in a match with 7 goals and future king of football is irresistible – a hat-trick, plus goals of Didi and Vava – 5:2. “The real final” in this World Cup has been played. As evidence, the match for 3rd place the French “tell the game” to the Germans. Fontaine is in his element and their “crashes” 4 “rag” and Kopagi Duis complete. But the German is not German, if not move even when it is “dead” – in 2 goals flowing – 6:3. So you know to this day when Germany meet France at a major tournament, still wants to take revenge? And it does!

What else? Pele? Long, probably forever, will sit on the royal throne. The king of sports, football, I found his King. The only elected by the people, the only truly loved by all! But not only Pele and Garrincha. In Brazil’s team are still magical “Manager” Didi, Vava incredible scorer, tireless Zito and happy ant Zagata, exclusive backs Nilton and Jhalma, the best goalkeeper in the history of Brazilian Zhilmar (ah, how their patina Brazilians lack of good goalies, but what to do – those with virtuosos like to attack the ball to score goals, to juggling, collecting applause, and not to stay and keep the door). Do not miss them and coach Vincent Feola, the creator of the most beautiful and impressive, and effective tactical scheme: 4-2-4. In conclusion – the appearance is famed, “extraterrestrial” team, which will fascinate all with beautiful and elegant football and will conquer the world! In other matches in this group: the USSR beat Austria at 2:0, and England made “only” 2:2 with the same rival. A further match between the USSR and Britain in. .. England extend beyond 0:1. The albinoses will wait for more. Winged goddess of victory Nike continues to take revenge on them that have long been ignored it. In the second group (Sweden, Mexico, Hungary and Wales), the hosts calmly and confidently reach? finals, beating Mexico by Hungary with 3:0 and 2:1. Their goalless draw with Wales is a formality. The Regulation, which disregards the goal difference, most Hungarians are harmed. They won against the “sombrero” in 4:0, but lost in the Supplementary Wales match of 1:2. “The Celts” so far without a victory, but without loss – with Hungary 1:1 in their first match 0:0 and twice in the other two. It is important to win just when you need and only victory Wales discards “bled” Hungary from further participation in this World Cup. In the third group (Germany, Argentina, Czechoslovakia, Northern Ireland) world champion Germans, elbows and nail “their way forward – against Argentina 3:1, 2:2 against Czechoslovakia, and v Northern Ireland. Argentines balanced “balance” after 3:1 v Irish, but become a pratfall after frontal collision “in the” Tatra “th Czechoslovak – 1:6. Shame and disgrace! For general astonishment, however, teams of Czechoslovakia began “to clamp suitcases, losing confused from the lead by Danny Blanchflaur team of Northern Ireland, and then 2 times – 0:1 with the” regular “and in the additional 1:2 match . Abe is quite opletoha strings here. In the fourth group (France, Yugoslavia, Paraguay, Scotland) attackers seem to have declared his race – 31 goals in 6 games. Only here do not have extra game. They say that merit is mostly of Gallic cock “against which” near “in Yugoslavia at a time to forget which way the opponent’s neck and was lost with 2:3. So hard! Especially South American “Guarani” in Paraguay, who defeated the same time with the same result obviously too much of a jump Scots. However, in defense of the French would say that, provided that they have already secured first ranking with a convincing game by defeating those same “Guarani” with 7:3 and bagpipers with 2:1, perhaps the loss of their Yugoslavia has scheduled. (Only 2 years after the first EP, the semi-finals, “Rooster” is already going to lose as host of that rival the more spectacular of 4:5). Anyway, the Jugoslavs will accompany to France? finals, having not been admitted “failure” nor against Scotland (1:1), or v Paraguay (3:3).

Sweden 1958 – The Introduction

Viliyana Filipova — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 06:03:42 +0000

Turn of South America to organize the World Cup, but time passes and no candidate and no. Running aid of good old Europe again in the face of Sweden. Nobody is opposing, and contrary to the elite hitting Scandinavia. Subsequently, it appears that the choice of FIFA has hit in dozens. Green fields and forests, crystal lakes, tranquility and comfort of Sweden as finalists make the stay pleasant and quiet. To add to all this wonderful conditions for football, which offers this time of year (June) short Swedish summer. For summer, these latitudes, I asked one Swede: “You know here you have a real summer – hot, muggy?” And he slightly offended, replied: “What do we have to, it was people? On June 22 from 7 am, and all the way to 19:30 in the evening!” Just between these 2-championships (1954-1958) died Jules Rimet (24.10.1873-15.10.1956). International football movement lost its great shape. Rarely, cultural and civilized, extremely loyal to the game, he is the president of FIFA from 1921. and will remain in history as the man with lots of love, and twice more tenacity, overcoming enormous difficulties of any kind, creating a true miracle – World Cup. As a token of appreciation and respect for him, still alive in 1946. delegates at the FIFA congress unanimously decided to name the World Cup, better known as the Golden Nike “in its name. Sounds a bit authoritarian, but a fact – until 1970. official name of the World Cup is “Jules Rimet Cup”. And something interesting – from 1960. and a European Cup. Bowl, which received European champions, called “Henri Delaunay Cup”, ie named after the faithful follower of Jules Rimet and long gene. FIFA secretary Henri Delaunay. And: “Father” leaves her baby (alas, no one is immortal), but it is not helpless, poor and hungry orphan. On the contrary! Turned in young, healthy body, vibrant force of boiling energy. Following the legacy of “Daddy, will continue forward with confidence and become very vibrant, rich and successful. Baton of Jules Rimet took Dryuri Englishman Arthur and his first job is to split the British teams in different qualification groups. Four Nations football seize it for the first time (and only appears) appear en bloc to the finals in Sweden. England debutants Scotland and Wales and Northern Ireland and the World Cup itself is allocated in the 4 preliminary groups, but their movements “anblok” will be there (the finals will be squeezed, and that “needle in the ear” only debutants) . VI debut this World Cup will make another team – not any, and the Olympic shampion of Olympic Games in Melbourne ‘56 – Soviet Union (USSR-finals of Yugoslavia – 1:0). From now on, though not built on the peak itself (but will be the first European champion in 2 years), The Team of “Sbornaya” will be a tangible factor among the very elite to its dissolution in 1990. And we? Bronze medalists are of that Olympics (in 1 / 2 finals losing to eventual champion USSR only 1:2 in overtime, but the 3rd place fight with India 3:0), but failed again to get to the World Cup. One of the great “black cat” for our football Hungary again crossed our path – 1:4 and 1:2. Still achieve its first victory in the World Cup qualification – 2:1 against Norway in Oslo. A Grom Norwegians in Sofia with 7:0 and this is our biggest victory of all time. What else happened in those turbulent years of football at nearby BETWEEN sound, but had nothing Switzerland Sweden ‘58 and ‘54? Disintegration is a great team of Hungary! After the attempted revolution of the Hungarian people in 1956., Colossi like Puskas, Kochi, etc. Tsibor. And all youth team en bloc is as wasted chicks, emigrated across (and “white”) Europe. Naturally were condemned as traitors of the socialist elite in their home country (Thank God those times have remained in history). This is the end of a glorious and a great team. Will appear different, even great, but there is Hungary, which remained uncrowned. Meanwhile, a real tragedy struck English football. At the airport in Munich plane crash in which the team travels to Manchester United. The greater part of the “Busby babies” as they called the youngest team at the time, killing and depriving the world of bright talents such as Byrne, Taylor, Duncan, Edwards … Survive, however, coach Matt Busby and Bobby Chartan youngster, who has been destined to become the greatest English player to emerge and new “babies” and “Manchester United will rise like a phoenix from the ashes … As the favorite for the title seems to be France. Kopa, Fontaine, and other Piatoni win victories and played in a way that impresses. Not seen any decent competition: sensational lapsed Italy and Spain – brilliant individuals have failed to organize a good team. World Champions – the Germans are not convincing in our events. The hosts are also quiet. Only Brazilians come Atlantic talus threatened, but nobody believes them. They talk about some kind Garrincha, Pele, Vava … but these are unknown players. Some experts put the account and the USSR, and England, but are skeptical about the capacity … What else between it and V-VI-Does it? What was born is the most popular club tournament in the world – the European Champions Cup (Champions League) today – “Champions League” (first final: Real Madrid – Paris Reims – 4:3). It has been established and most prestigious individual award for player of the year N 1 in Europe – the “Golden Ball” in the newspaper “France Football” (First winner: Englishman Stanley Matthews, later honored by the UK with the title “Sir”). You receive a trophy and club ‘Cup panaitnite cities, now the UEFA Cup “(first final in 2 matches: Barcelona, London – 2:2 and 6:0 in the spring of 1958.). And as for the cover: borning is a white world and myself (18.04.56). VI-th World Championship has already begun. The first group (UK, USSR, Austria, Brazil) was “Iron”, as connoisseurs. Somewhat surprisingly, however, one of the times it is too easy. After a smooth victory against Austria with a 3:0 to the Brazilians ahead of their match against England (in his first game England have made a rather challenging and effectively draw against the USSR – 2:2). Before the match, the famous journalist Joao Saldaña (it will be the coach of Brazil in the 1968-69g.) Goes to England coach Walter Winterbottom, and tells him: “Sir, today we will debut Mane Garrincha. It is right wing. Bet that if within 10 minutes after the start of the match does not send someone to help you back Wilson left, he asked himself will help. Then, when Garrincha Joao goes: “Listen, Mane! In England there is a Wilson, who said that we can not give you to touch the ball. He is such a tall, blond …” The simple Garrincha going on the pitch, saw that all Englishmen are just as high, blond … and takes them with intoxication “technique” and together and separately, and so throughout the game. English as a miracle without a goal in get door (0:0). After the match, Sir Winterbottom 2 crates of champagne sent to the Brazilian journalist. In the game against the USSR, “Carioca” available on the world football at fantastic first 3 minutes in the history of football. 1st min break in the wing Garrincha, and overcoming their own, and foreign, brought on by a thread rushing Vava, who fired heavily, but in the beam. 3 min exercise ends with a goal – 1:0 for Brazil. Angry, Soviet goalkeeper Lev Yashin (it is believed that this is the greatest goalie of all time, the only goalkeeper, who won the Golden Ball for N 1 player – 1963.) Hitting their cap into the ground. At this point, one thin, 17-year pickaninny running by the Brazilian team and kisses big Lev “on the cheek … to soothe him. Pathetic, right? And this is pickaninny Pele! And so the world stage appear the two most genius – Garrincha and Pele. Mane Garrincha – The joy of the people The first will be “Joy to the people.” He appeared in professional football quite old – 20 years and only then – in a very curious way. “Selected” and “got” to the stadium from one of the scouts of “Botafogo” straight from a beach. Entering it on the pitch during the training of famous team, accompanied by loud laughter and ridicule. And indeed: Garrincha like everything else, but not the player – his right leg with goals 7 centimeters shorter than the left, which in turn apologized to half-rainbow to stand upright and moving. Forcing is a scout that he has led this guy, the coach still shouting: “Hey, Nilton, her account of him see this” Swan ” (coming speech on the left defender Nilton Santos, who was so popular at the time, that without his word can not be assigned even cleaner at the club). What happened at that time surpassed all expectation and not only decide the fate of Garrincha in his favor, but also long been telling himself pleased with Nilton. Let’s hear it: “My coach Silva said one ugly drake, which walking in the right area of the playground, I cried:” give him see this “and he threw one ball. I went quietly to him it takes, but then man slipped it between my legs and running by me. I could not keep standing and fell on his back with legs up. It must have been very funny side. While we face, thinking: “What makes legged with others? God knows! “When I looked”. Much longer can you say about Garrincha, but this is not the purpose of this book, so it will be limited to one episode. In one match Garrincha overcome “guard” and still face to face with the goalkeeper. At the last minute, with peripheral vision, Manne noted that defender writhing in pain, and instead of scoring a goal, turned and sent the ball in. .. touch. In the implementation of wove, in a moment doubt his opponent and the ball was returned into the feet of our hero in the applauses of the audience. Now this is normal and happens often, but this gesture was born then, from the nobility of crude, uneducated and stupid would Manol Francisco dos Santos, known as Garrincha.
