Cool thread......

i remember that Brazil team well and although it's tailisman Romario was an outstanding player, it used to be funny how some of them didn't play for the TOP TOP teams - for example:

Taffarel played for Reggiana
Mauro Silva played for Deportivo......he is a legend there - i lived near there and they still love him there........Bebeto also played for Depor.........
Branco played for Gremio.....and later turned up at Boro!!!
Dunga played for Stuttgart..........

Even Leonardo didn't play for PSG / Milan till around 96/97..............

It was definately a proper "TEAM"

I remember Branco playing for Torino and scoring from about 45 yards against Aberdeen. **** he had some shot on him.

Bebeto, legend!

I remember that the ref ****ed us Swedes over when he sent off Jonas Thern in the semifinals against Brazil.

The former UEFA Presídent Lennart Johansson said that FIFA suddenly changed referee for the game. Brazil didn't like the one that should have got the game so they changed it to one Brazil wanted.

Havelange is of course from Brazil.

You have a conspiracy theory for every occasion

Lovely team, lovely kit, lovely memories of watching this in my teens, but a crap final.
What I will say is that you should try and read last month's 442 magazine which contains a romario interview-its hilarious, he loves himself, then contradicts himself saying how humble he wants to be but then when asked who the top 5 brazilian players ever are, he replies 'make it a top 4' and takes two players out and includes himself haha!
He then says he's down to earth but then says only pele compares to him

i remember being at a hockey tournament in stone staffs when usa 94 was on. To watch Ireland v Holland a few of us went to watch the match on tv. one bloke who was a lawyer drove us in his jag. pulled up to this hotel walked in ordered drinks and complained we couldnt watch the match anywhere in the hotel. the receptionist asked if we were residents he said of course.

we got given a small function room with a projector and a few free rounds of drinks.

Romario goal was a popular shout that year. also liked that brazil shirt

I remember watching Ireland v Italy at my dealers house, every time there was a corner we had to have a massive hit from his massive bong
