I was 10 at the time & that was football at its best...... well apart from us this last few years :-)

That was 'Samba' football.
With Southgate it's line dancing football......

A beautiful, beautiful goal, to be sure.. and just to show how beautiful the art of defending can also be in contributing to this mesmerising game we all love, here is Gordon Banks against Brazil at the same World Cup in 1970 with the greatest save I've ever seen..
