World Cup Quarter Final Clash - A Historic Moment at Wembley Stadium
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the intense World Cup Quarter Final match between England and Argentina on July 23rd, 1966. The scoreline reads England 1 v Argentina 0, with Geoff Hurst being the hero who found the back of the net. However, it was not just the goal that made this match unforgettable. The image captures a bitter scene as tensions rise after Antonio Rattin, captain of Argentina, is controversially sent off by West German referee Rudolf Kreitlin. Refusing to leave the field for ten minutes, Rattin defiantly sits down on the red carpet amidst protests from English players Bobby Charlton and Bobby Moore. Post-match emotions run high as well when England manager Alf Ramsey expresses his disdain for Argentina's style of play by labeling them "animals". This leads him to forbid his players from swapping shirts with their opponents - a gesture usually seen as a sign of respect in international football. This photograph encapsulates both the thrilling action on the pitch and the heated controversies surrounding this historic encounter. It serves as a powerful reminder of how sport can ignite intense rivalries and evoke strong emotions among players and fans alike.
