Interesting to note the quality of the pitch. Nowadays they play on a carpet every week, but back then playing on a surtace that good must have been a rare treat for the players.
Well before my time but fascinating to watch. The Yugoslavs look like they had the more skillful, tricky, technical players and stroked it around beautifully. They look weak defensively and England did their best work on the counter. Nice to see a bit of wizardry from Rodney Marsh as I've wondered what he was like.
It's sad seeing this from Serbia. NT 50y ago played way better and entertaining football than now. Dzajic had such control of his body with fakes putting opponent out of position...very few players in today's era of industrial football have that kind of skill. Now it's all repetition, strength, speed and just running. What cost Yugoslavia in this game was stupid undisciplined short passes in its penalty area by CBs and just bad lost possessions by DCM. Fullbacks and wingers top class, defense trash. I think manager of NT at this time was young Vujadin Boskov, who later had a lot of success in Netherlands and Italy. Also, LB who the commentator praises is Dragoslav Stepanovic who had success as a coach in Bundesliga in the 90s. Not having a disciplined defense and world class finisher (I have no clue why Skoblar never played for NT at that time, he was golden boot one year in the early 70s) cost this generation not winning something.
love watching these
Brilliant channel ,great era for soccer, no overpaid prima donnas
I never thought Channon was International standard - Dzajic what a player and what a place for him to top the Yugoslavia caps record .
Mike scored 21 goals in 46 games which was a pretty good return, considering he played a lot of that time in the second division.
Thanks for posting. Wow: what a match. The sheer quality from both sides and the excitement. Really good to watch.
yugoslavia played the pressing game which was alien then, plus Gordon Banks no longer played for England due to his right eye loss.
@@mohdazmi10Banksy left the game that year a winner though as Stoke City beat Chelsea 2-1 in the League Cup Final. Happy days!
