yes it is but if we win the cup this time I am sure he will be looking down with pride' While I was away coaching in Philippines I lost other friends the same way.

What I'd really be interested in is knowing more about the 4 years before the actual '66 tournament. How Ramsey went about getting England to the point we all know (and I'm Irish btw). What player selections, what matches were played, how the tactics and team dynamics developed, how Ramsey dealt with the F.A./media, etc.
perhaps because there's not much to show and in these short tournaments winners are decided through details such as a ghost goal... then it's only a matter of deitifying the coach as a big brain, master of strategy with a patriotic duty to bring the cup home...
A heart touching documentary, I see good men winning the world cup, i like jack charlton very much. Very sympatic. Long time ago in a world who was different.
Lovely documentary.....sad though that now some of them of them no longer with us...Bobby Moore, Alan Ball, Ray Wilson, and some battling Alzhiemers.......bless them all! Fantastic achievement they did....it'll happen again someday!
Hey Watch "Sharpe", Bean's character is shot numerous times, slashed with a sword, poisoned,hanged and even contracts Malaria, and he survives 5 seasons and a few TV movies.
It was just one of those glorious days where the streets were empty, everyone in someone's front room watching a black and white telly. There perhaps wasn't the euphoria that you get nowadays but rather a quiet, composed, self-satisfaction that we, England, were the best team in the world - and we definitely were!
You have the reason,1966 had to be wonderful for you Here in Argentina nobody at streets December 18 th and at 14.52 the explosion. Thousands of persons at streets and the following day 5 millions to welcome Messi and his boys

Eusebio was called the 'Black Panther" not pearl, as that name was given to Pele. I was lucky enough to see both of them play at Goodison Park in the group match. Pele was injured and spent most of the game hobbling out on the touchline. Eusebio was magnificent; a true sportsman. So sad he's no longer with us. Four years later, and Pele led perhaps the finest team ever to victory in Mexico.
Funny how they forgot to mention the referee in Argentina-England was german and at the same stage the referee in Uruguay-German was english. Strangely enough, both games ended up in controversy, with several south american players sent off.
Beautiful moving film. June 2021 - only 4 of the 11 are still alive. Hurst, Hunt, Bobby Charlton and George Cohen. Nobby Stiles and Bobby Charlton went on to win European Cup with Man Utd 2 years later. 1966 Squad Member Ian Callaghan won European Cup with Liverpool 11 years later. They are still the only English players to have won both.
Sadly no England football team has ever lived up to the fine men that played in the Class of 1966. The England rugby team of 2003 and the England cricket team of 2019 tasted "World Glory" . as an England fan I would love to see a England Football world cup victory in my lifetime

Ball winning is a euphemism for kicking people. If you like your football in a skilled and cultured groove it is possible to win the ball without doing this - the classic example from the past is Jean Tigana from the great French midfield of the 80’s. The wiry man from Mali was never a chopper; more of an interventionist; anticipating passes and cutting them out - always the first attacking player to get back to help in defence and always available just outside his own penalty area if a colleague won the ball in defence. From there with one deft pass he turned defence into attack. He often cut out opposing attacks by intercepting passes in midfield at the precise spot where the ball could be won, without a tackle and certainly not by kicking anyone in the manner of English 'ball winners' from the 60’s and 70’s like Stiles, Storey and Hunter. The art of interception sets the quality defenders and midfield players a big step apart from players who might be quicker, but rarely look and think.

Brilliant stuff,You we're a great player and man Bobby Charlton& thats from a Liverpool fan,great seein those brothers together and the clip of the players today,shame no Jimmy Greaves,-how must he feel as probably the most skillful player we had.
England's men's side greatest hour. Fantastic achievement. One thing was wrong with this accomplishment......the great Duncan Edwards was missing. I honestly believe if he had lived he would have been the one hoisting the cup as captain. What should have been...
In a way winning the World Cup in 1966 was the worst thing that ever happened to English football, as it legitimised a style of play based on physical and moral qualities which stopped any impetus for improvement, especially in skill. This led to England’s continual failure at international level thereafter. If we remove our red, white and blue blinkers we can see that England were fortunate to win the World Cup and like West Germany in 1974 they wouldn’t have done so if they hadn’t had home advantage (Hungary played the best football but unfortunately were let down by their goalkeeper and got steam-rollered as they usually did by the Russian machine), the fact that England had a better team in Mexico 1970 and lost proves it. They played some good football in the semi-final but for the rest of the time were mediocre. In my opinion the only class players were Banks, Peters, Moore, Hurst and Charlton. In the quarter-final Argentina were the better team and would probably have won if Rattin hadn’t been sent off. They deserved to win the final on the balance of play and 2-1 in normal time would have been the correct result as the free-kick that led to West Germany’s equaliser wasn’t a free-kick.
I´m glad the documentary didn´t go into the whole war backstory before the final. I´m sure some people talked about it back in the day of course, and some fans are classless and clueless enough to even chant about it in the present as if it was a game, but as I say. It was only about football and the atmosphere seemed to be noble and respectful considering it was an England vs Germany final. Strange to see England winning something, but it doesn´t feel too bad. I am glad we did it when the world and football were still a serious thing instead of all the current modern shennanigans.
Certainly every ENGLISH football supporter should watch this video before they pass on ,a fantastic documentary,one of the best I’ve ever viewed,I remember doing NOBBIES dance down Plymouth Royal Parade high street with hundreds of other English fans ,GOD BLESS ENGLAND❤️
MoM in that game,theres a clip of him giving a speech about all that on RUclips,only 21 and wondered why Bobby was crying and Jack was on his knees face in hand.
This team was full of winners with a never say die attitude and they didn't get millions of pounds just down to earth people who wanted to make the country proud and they certainly did
may Our Lord Jesus Chirst Bless their souls with passing of Sir Bobby Charlton the last of the 1966 world Cup winners pass into Heavenly entirely grace to them all with love and thanks.
Yea but that was before the war before any of this conterversy like north and west germany one was run by england and one was ran by england and that was the game they won agenst west germany and that country was running England so they practilly won agenst themself
@Reality That's the reason why many people hate English people they bring politics in sports.I hope England will never win Wc again. And you will never win EC
@@e.l.b6435 Use your brain english people dont bring politics into it, it's the media, I've never mentioned politics in sport, and that's why so many people hate english??

I am an Englishman and an England fan, however I am an honest football observer ... So what did we "win" before 1966 Nothing. In 1963, Alf Ramsey said "England will win the World Cup in 1966" ... we have Never Won the European Nations Cup, now known as the European Championships ...we never have done. As the 1966 World Cup Finals were being played in England, the English F. A. intervened as it looked like England would play the World Cup Semi-Final at Goodison Park the home of Everton F.C. in the City of Liverpool ... They changed to teams playing the Semi-Finals so England would play in London at Wembley Stadium. As for the Final, I want to focus on the two "suspect" goals in extra time .... 1, the "so called goal" that was given as over the line, was not fully over the goal line, therefor it should not have been given as a goal. 2, the second "suspect" goal at the end of extra time should not have stood as the BBC TV commentator said "Some people are running on the pitch, they think is all over, it is now!" the game has to stop, when spectators run on the pitch, so that goal should not have stood.
ONLY 8 TEAMS HAVE EVER WON THE WC CHINA RUSSIA DENMARK HOLLAND JAPAN EVERY AFRICAN COUNTRY FINLAND NORWAY CANADA USA PORTUGAL COLOMBIA PERU MEXICO ROMANIA POLAND AND EVERY OTHER COUNTRY HAVE NEVER WON IT !!!! SO WHAT HAVE ENGLAND DONE I WILL TELL YOU WHAT THEY DID THE IMPOSSIBLE !!!!
Times was so easier back then! Not getting asked for change every two minutes walking down the road, living woth so many different immigrants with different views and having to keep your family safe, no work unless its made up work, there is no gender anymore so what am i?? Is it up to me or the media? Music is computers
How can over 100,000 football fans watch this and only 500 take the half second needed to say thank you to the person posting it by giving it a thumbs up?
WHY ENGLAND WOULD STILL HAVE HOME ADVANTAGE ITS IN ENGLAND !!!! TRUTH IS THAT PORTUGAL SIDE WERE PHYSICALLY POOR AGAINST STYLES AND TOUGH TACKLES THEY WERENT HARD ENOUGH. HOME SIDE ALWAYS PLAYS IN THEIR HOME STADIUM. PLUS CHARLTON AND STYLES BEAT EM IN 68 AGAIN
LegacyRelic14 Changing the venue for the semi final made perfectly good logistical sense: The host nation were involved so demand for tickets would have been much higher. Moving it to Wembley which was a bigger stadium seems perfectly reasonable.
21:26 "that team didn't worry us. Eusébio did" With all due respect for the history you've written, we all know that's bullshit xD Most of the guys in "that team" had been in European Champion Clubs' Cup final in 1961, 1962, 1963 and 1965, winning the first two for Benfica. The venue was changed the day before and Portugal had to do a long train trip and change hotel. You were worried mate xD
I love the way Mr.Ramsey says "congratulations" to the players hes picked. Making sure the players know what a privilege that is.
Alan Ball was only 61 years when he died. Dynamo of a player. RIP

Biggest con was changing the venue if the semi final to Wembley, making the Portuguese team travel overnight
The schedule always allowed for England to stay at Wembley if they make the semifinal.

They won by swarming the ref and then the linesman in the final to give them a goal to win the World Cup
Like the cheats that they are. No wonder everyone hates England.
Unlike your mob.
England has been the most unsuccessful World Cup winner
RIP Martin Peters
It's coming home.

1966 & 2018, come on England.
"How England won the 1966 World Cup"
answer: with a goal that never crossed the line
Brilliant stuff,You we're a great player and man Bobby Charlton& thats from a Liverpool fan,great seein those brothers together and the clip of the players today,shame no Jimmy Greaves,-how must he feel as probably the most skillful player we had.
Ned Stark!!! Sean Bean has a great narrating voice.
England's men's side greatest hour. Fantastic achievement. One thing was wrong with this accomplishment......the great Duncan Edwards was missing. I honestly believe if he had lived he would have been the one hoisting the cup as captain. What should have been...
In a way winning the World Cup in 1966 was the worst thing that ever happened to English football, as it legitimised a style of play based on physical and moral qualities which stopped any impetus for improvement, especially in skill. This led to England’s continual failure at international level thereafter.
If we remove our red, white and blue blinkers we can see that England were fortunate to win the World Cup and like West Germany in 1974 they wouldn’t have done so if they hadn’t had home advantage (Hungary played the best football but unfortunately were let down by their goalkeeper and got steam-rollered as they usually did by the Russian machine), the fact that England had a better team in Mexico 1970 and lost proves it. They played some good football in the semi-final but for the rest of the time were mediocre. In my opinion the only class players were Banks, Peters, Moore, Hurst and Charlton.
In the quarter-final Argentina were the better team and would probably have won if Rattin hadn’t been sent off.
They deserved to win the final on the balance of play and 2-1 in normal time would have been the correct result as the free-kick that led to West Germany’s equaliser wasn’t a free-kick.
Well we will be winning it again very soon, come on boys ⚽️ 🏆 you can do it. 1966-2018 star ⭐️ ⭐️
Helmet hair 82 fucking lost to pissing. Croatia
And get rekt by the Croatian.. lol!
You must be french or croatian...
Lol dream on. You never win it again, unless you cheat again.
jajaja seguí participando
RIP Diego Armando!
He knows when to raise his hand!
england has not even come close to winning it again, since then.
And they didn't really win back then. It was two irregular goals. Pathetic losers.
Good old Ned Stark with the excellent narration...
The North remembers!
Winter is coming for the foes of English soccer!
I´m glad the documentary didn´t go into the whole war backstory before the final. I´m sure some people talked about it back in the day of course, and some fans are classless and clueless enough to even chant about it in the present as if it was a game, but as I say. It was only about football and the atmosphere seemed to be noble and respectful considering it was an England vs Germany final.
Strange to see England winning something, but it doesn´t feel too bad. I am glad we did it when the world and football were still a serious thing instead of all the current modern shennanigans.
Two irregular goals in the final, you losers. How does it feel you only even won one little title and it was by CHEATING???
Is this the ned stark guy's voice?
"There are people on the pitch. They think it's all over.
It is now!!"
Certainly every ENGLISH football supporter should watch this video before they pass on ,a fantastic documentary,one of the best I’ve ever viewed,I remember doing NOBBIES dance down Plymouth Royal Parade high street with hundreds of other English fans ,GOD BLESS ENGLAND❤️
England has the opportunity to win something big once every two years; yet, the country remains empty handed since that glorious year 1966.
Something about Alan Ball. He had a great trust and love for his father that im jealous of.
MoM in that game,theres a clip of him giving a speech about all that on RUclips,only 21 and wondered why Bobby was crying and Jack was on his knees face in hand.
They scored more goals
From the tales of Middle Earth,
Gondor vs Mordor, narrated by Boromir.
Name of linesman is Tofiq Bahramov , from Azerbaijan🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿
England were not afraid of anyone back then, they played Argentina, Germany Portugal, all defeated.
I was 1 yrs old when England won the world cup
I know because I was there
This team was full of winners with a never say die attitude and they didn't get millions of pounds just down to earth people who wanted to make the country proud and they certainly did
Losers they didn't win because of 2 irregular goals in the final.

Ah yes, we see the inception of “it’s comin’ home, bruv.” 😂
Notice how few George Crosses in the crowd. It was all Union Jacks. When Britain was Britain.
you mean when Britain was GREAT
is the narrator ned stark !!!
come on England
It’s coming home boys!!!
Come On England!
If the manager alf Ramsey is not England not won the world cup 1966
may Our Lord Jesus Chirst Bless their souls with passing of Sir Bobby Charlton the last of the 1966 world Cup winners pass into Heavenly entirely grace to them all with love and thanks.
Really sad we lost half the team virtually in the last couple of years
Yes.
They were a really likeable group too.
They had a quality of humility so underrated now.
Saturday July 7 - 2018
England beat Sweden in Russia world cup 2018 in qoter final 2-0
Rip Alan ball
NORTH KOREA WAS IN THE WORLD CUP!?!??!!!?
And went up 3-0 on Portugal after 45 minutes in the quarterfinal! Portugal came back and won 5-3.
Yea but that was before the war before any of this conterversy like north and west germany one was run by england and one was ran by england and that was the game they won agenst west germany and that country was running England so they practilly won agenst themself
Bob Riley before the war? Christ British history classes must be non existant.
drunkensailor112 not sure he’s British, you know, seeing as he tries to discredit England’s win
South and North played in South Africa un 2010
Ball never crossed the line
Reality 4:2 should didn‘t count cause viewers were on the field
@Reality That's the reason why many people hate English people they bring politics in sports.I hope England will never win Wc again. And you will never win EC
Kampfpuffi and the final in 1954 didn't count, hungary should have won it
@@e.l.b6435 stop getring upset.
Lets celebrate nazis lost the war they were racists.
@@e.l.b6435 Use your brain english people dont bring politics into it, it's the media, I've never mentioned politics in sport, and that's why so many people hate english?? It's mostly salty European countries, American countries dont hate us, Are you german by any chance? Because how many times have you got lucky against england a shit load of times!
I am an Englishman and an England fan, however I am an honest football observer ... So what did we "win" before 1966 Nothing. In 1963, Alf Ramsey said "England will win the World Cup in 1966" ... we have Never Won the European Nations Cup, now known as the European Championships ...we never have done. As the 1966 World Cup Finals were being played in England, the English F. A. intervened as it looked like England would play the World Cup Semi-Final at Goodison Park the home of Everton F.C. in the City of Liverpool ... They changed to teams playing the Semi-Finals so England would play in London at Wembley Stadium. As for the Final, I want to focus on the two "suspect" goals in extra time .... 1, the "so called goal" that was given as over the line, was not fully over the goal line, therefor it should not have been given as a goal. 2, the second "suspect" goal at the end of extra time should not have stood as the BBC TV commentator said "Some people are running on the pitch, they think is all over, it is now!" the game has to stop, when spectators run on the pitch, so that goal should not have stood.
David Cummings - I think it was fixed?
After all, it's just a sweet memory
David Cummings THE 3rd GOAL NO WAY CROSSED THE LINE
ONLY 8 TEAMS HAVE EVER WON THE WC CHINA RUSSIA DENMARK HOLLAND JAPAN EVERY AFRICAN COUNTRY FINLAND NORWAY CANADA USA PORTUGAL COLOMBIA PERU MEXICO ROMANIA POLAND AND EVERY OTHER COUNTRY HAVE NEVER WON IT !!!! SO WHAT HAVE ENGLAND DONE I WILL TELL YOU WHAT THEY DID THE IMPOSSIBLE !!!!
England were scheduled to play every game at Wembley from the start, no matter what.
Times was so easier back then! Not getting asked for change every two minutes walking down the road, living woth so many different immigrants with different views and having to keep your family safe, no work unless its made up work, there is no gender anymore so what am i?? Is it up to me or the media? Music is computers
I live near Lilleshall the place where the world Cup winning team were picked
How can over 100,000 football fans watch this and only 500 take the half second needed to say thank you to the person posting it by giving it a thumbs up?
We all know what happen in the Portugal game
Portugal would have won that match, if the venue was not changed
WHY ENGLAND WOULD STILL HAVE HOME ADVANTAGE ITS IN ENGLAND !!!! TRUTH IS THAT PORTUGAL SIDE WERE PHYSICALLY POOR AGAINST STYLES AND TOUGH TACKLES THEY WERENT HARD ENOUGH. HOME SIDE ALWAYS PLAYS IN THEIR HOME STADIUM. PLUS CHARLTON AND STYLES BEAT EM IN 68 AGAIN
LegacyRelic14 Changing the venue for the semi final made perfectly good logistical sense: The host nation were involved so demand for tickets would have been much higher. Moving it to Wembley which was a bigger stadium seems perfectly reasonable.
@ LegacyRelic14 - one can't say Portugal would have won the match, but there was clearly an advantage to England as they didn't have to travel.
We all know what happend when Portugal played against Brazil.
They scored more goals than Germany
A Kink they were given**
Thats debatable.
England semi final shoudlve been played at Goodison Park but it was swapped to Wembley, a lot of England fans always felt cheated by that..
21:26 "that team didn't worry us. Eusébio did"
With all due respect for the history you've written, we all know that's bullshit xD
Most of the guys in "that team" had been in European Champion Clubs' Cup final in 1961, 1962, 1963 and 1965, winning the first two for Benfica.
The venue was changed the day before and Portugal had to do a long train trip and change hotel.
You were worried mate xD
I'm just showing facts. I read it on papers from that time. You're very tense. Stress decreases the quality of your life. Peace
@@ktmtxt who is stressed?
