I liked the Mexico 86 one. My first WC where I was old enough to understand football properly. It had a huge impression on me, the whole tournament, even though England were cheated.
I learnt that England can lose/draw to/with vastly inferior teams ; I learnt that the England manager's job can be like a living hell, I learnt that incredible comebacks were what football was all about, I learnt that Beardo was a class act , I learnt that sometimes cheats do prosper.
Plus it was the first time I saw the Mexican wave. Class tournament that one.
