Hvala Mirko❤️ How unfair would have been the world champion at the time, Germany to had beaten Bulgaria through fake penalty and the exuberant acting skills of Jurgen Klinsman?! Thanks for sharing your joyous moment❤️
Possibly but Bulgaria got hammered 3-0 by African champions Nigeria in the group stages. Not a fluke win because Nigeria was only overcome after extra time in the round of 16 by eventual runnerup Italy.
I remember watching this match late at night in South Africa as a 12 year old, supported Bulgaria after watching them defeating Argentina and I liked their surnames ending with V, I jumped very high when Letchkov scored that header.
Spent some time in SA. Englishman here. Used to go there for up to three months a year between 1995 and 1999 for work purposes. Was there for the Rugby World Cup in 1995 when Madiba wielded his magic. Respect from England

@@velezaris3345 Thanks! We wish you get again your famous football and not only football. History is too dynamic sometimes, that`s way people forgot the very strong medieval Bulgaria! And not only medieval!

Your team smashed Argentina like we beat them also and you lost from Sweeden very very difficult and they were very lucky to beat you. So I think the best final would be Bulgaria Romania :))))) or someone between Romania or Bulgaria against Brazil...
England weren’t in this World Cup so we followed the games (at like 2 AM!!) with no stress. Romania and Bulgaria became our heroes in this tournament. Great football from them and great team spirit. Letchkovs goal will always be in the memories.

That’s why we (about 90% of the Anglosphere) still say ‘soccer’
One of the most epic WC football match ever. I was in Argentina watching it and I screamed alfter Letchkov's goal as it was scored by my national team.
Ese Hristo Stoichkov , un jugador con temperamento y carácter increible, todo un guerrero en la cancha, Balavok, Letchkov, Ivanov, Borimirov y compañía todos muy buenos jugadores, fue la gran sorpresa en ese mundial, eliminando al campeón del mundo , a la espectacular máquina alemana, grandes los búlgaros, Saludos desde Lima Perú.
Without a doubt one of the greatest teams to ever played the beautiful game. Bulgaria was a formidable force and they had a perfect chemistry. Cheers from Colombia

Letchkov's header was an unforgettable moment. Revisiting it now, Stoichkov's FK was also wonderful, there is no way any keeper would have stopped that. I was 10 when I watched this epic game, everyone were expecting Germany to win but Bulgaria played better and deserved it.
I watched this match when I was in 7th Grade in school. I remember that I used to watch '94 World cup at about 3:00 a.m Pakistan Standard Time midnight. I was so excited when Bulgaria upset Germany. Hristo Stoichkov was one of my favorite player at that time.
I'm from Brazil and I was 18 years old in that 94 World Cup, I really enjoyed seeing this Bulgaria with efficient and beautiful football, it had many quality players, far beyond the star Stoichkov, I also liked Balakov, Lechkov, Kostadinov among others.
I remember that match. I watched with my father. We cheered on Bulgaria. Dad made a bet with a friend about Whsiky that Bulgaria to win. We cried with joy after the second goal. I was 10 years then. Great moments with my father- I remember this euphoria to this day. How football can connect
I was luckily enough to be at this game. Working in the USA in the summer of '94 on a BUNAC student exchange. Somehow managed to get a hold of some tickets for this game (can't remember how!) and went along, expecting to enjoy the experience but firmly of the belief that Germany would win. Of course Bulgaria had other ideas and it was brilliant to be present at such a stunning performance and massive world cup upset. Great day!
I watched this game live on TV in an early morning at home with my father. If I am not mistaken, this is the first time World Cup games are broadcast live in China. I remember vividly the free kick from No.8 and the header from the bold guy. It was a good game and it was a good summer.
Even if Bulgaria shooted out France in 1993, I was really glad of them after this super game. After goal of Hristo I felt that something crazy could happen in the few minutes just after. It was the moment to do the miracle. And came quickly Letshkov with his head of victory. Bravo Bulgarie. dowijzdane
Damn yeah last second goal by kostadinov in Paris. I remember that well...but it gave the french a super incentive to renew their team and come back much stronger

One of the great shocks in World Cup history. They deserved it Bulgaria 🇧🇬 and little did we know how far they would get in the tournament. Had a great side. The golden generation in Bulgarian football.

Bulgaria was in WC qualifying group with huge favourite France and beat them. France was top3 team in world at 94-96 (later in 96-00 No1) but finish on 3rd place and didn't qualified. Bulgaria qualified from that group with Sweden. That was big surprise... ... Story didn't finish. Golden cherry on this cake is fact both countries played in semifinal - almost played against each other in final. Bulgaria - Sweden in final??? Probably penalties as well but score after 90min 4-4 or 5-5.
This German team was so arrogant and the penalty on Klinsmann was a joke, they deserved so much to lose. I remember I started jumping so frenetically after Letchkov's legendary header that I almost fell out of the window of my 16st floor apartment in São Paulo, Brazil. Unforgetable world cup moment
Bulgaria has beaten France to qualify for WC 94. Some people predicted that Germany would have struggled and they did struggled against brave Bulgaroans. In the game, Klinsman dived to get penalty!!!!!
I started watching Cricket in 1992 and Football in 1994. I remember it was a Sunday and the matches were shown on DD. I was travelling in train and came to know about Germany's loss next morning through news on DD.
For us, Bulgarians, this was more than a football World Cup. Back at the time we were a bankrupted post-coomunist state, overlooked by most of Europe. The populace was depressed and hardly saw much perspective for their own country. And then World Cup USA 94 happened! We saw and the world saw that we still have spirit to overcome seemingly impossible obstacles! Heck, even many of our neighbours in the war-torn Balkans cheered for us! I was small then but still remember the euphoria!
The referees are always giving penalties against the underdogs but Bulgaria showed spirit and managed to come back and win the match against Germany who were currently the World Cup champions. Glorious moments for the people in Bulgaria !
I was 8 years old at the time and I remember the hole country going nuts at that period of time. My family we, we are not big on football at all but I remember my mother jumping out of happiness in front of the TV in our living room. One night outside the street everybody was going full mode CRAAAZZZYYYYYY. I have never seen my country that united and happy ever since.
Pinche Partidazo. Yo tenia 12, recuerdo que era Sabado por alguna razon fui a la escuela ese dia y estaba escuchando la narracion del partido por Radio. Letchkov, Stoickov, Balakov, Ivanov me caian gordos los Bulgaros por que dias antes habian eliminado a Mexico en penales, pero que bien jugaban, le ponian chingo de ganas y nunca bajaban los brazos, esos son los juegos de Mundial.
What a great match...two great teams and I was with full heart with our neigbours Bulgarians.Even today I know that team by name.Greating from Serbia.🇷🇸
Like I said many times Stoichkov could turn almost all situations to his favour. It's not easy to defeat Germany; a walled-drilled defence (one of the best) led by Kahn, determined and star-studded with Voeller, Klinsman, you name it. But this Bulgarian squad (probably the best ever by Bulgaria) turned the table against the FIFA favourite Germany. Bulgaria was a real shocker in this tournament and was very unfortunate to make it to the final. This squad with a little bit spirit, motivations and determinations could have won in 1998. It will be a long and winding road for Bulgaria to repeat such amazing performances; skills, creativity and determination. This has been one of the most happiest moment of football I have ever had in my entire World Cup viewings.
The greatest surprise of this world cup! I still remember the happiness of Bulgarians when the referee blew the final whistle, and later that day or the next day, their celebration in their hotel.
As an 11 years old Dane, it was a dissapointment that Denmark werent playing World cup 1994. By some reason I supported Bulgaria instead. I will soon forget this match and the great play from the Bulgarians here :)
I shall say a big respect to that old team of Bulgaria as they defeated Germany with (2-1) in USA 94.,,I had many goodfriends from Bulgaria ,,they are nice people and friendly too..
@@klausbrinck2137 No, I remember it vividly, it was right after THAT 90th min. winner vs. France. Here's the link, the commentary is in Bulgarian, so you have to take my word for it, I'm afraid, it's at 0:11 ruclips.net/video/iXEub2eyABc/видео.html

Letchkov, Stoickov, Balakov, Ivanov me caian gordos los Bulgaros por que dias antes habian eliminado a Mexico en penales, pero que bien jugaban, le ponian chingo de ganas y nunca bajaban los brazos, esos son los juegos de Mundial.
Классная была команда. А комбинация в первом тайме, с ударом в штангу- супер!
What a great match...two great teams and I was with full heart with our neigbours Bulgarians.Even today I know that team by name.Greating from Serbia.🇷🇸
Like I said many times Stoichkov could turn almost all situations to his favour. It's not easy to defeat Germany; a walled-drilled defence (one of the best) led by Kahn, determined and star-studded with Voeller, Klinsman, you name it. But this Bulgarian squad (probably the best ever by Bulgaria) turned the table against the FIFA favourite Germany. Bulgaria was a real shocker in this tournament and was very unfortunate to make it to the final. This squad with a little bit spirit, motivations and determinations could have won in 1998. It will be a long and winding road for Bulgaria to repeat such amazing performances; skills, creativity and determination. This has been one of the most happiest moment of football I have ever had in my entire World Cup viewings.
The greatest surprise of this world cup! I still remember the happiness of Bulgarians when the referee blew the final whistle, and later that day or the next day, their celebration in their hotel.
4:11 what a goal!! saw it live and i'll never forget it...
Dublin Reggae Wow, that must've been quite a thrilling moment.
My First World Cup and feels wonderful to see the videos again
What a great team had Bulgaria at that time!
This where a best Bolgarian team played ever... Lechkov and Stoechkov - they are a legend...
And it beat one of the best German teams. There are many who consider the German team of 94 better than the one which won in 90
@@condelevante4 yes. They were good but not so good they thought
Romania and Bulgaria @ 94 are two teams I adore
The Most Beautiful Goal On This WC........ Jordaaaaaaan Letchkooooooooooov
Hagi with Columbia
Ballerina Klinsman fiel künstlerisch. verdient einen Oscar für Theaterkunst!
World Class football IQ and off the ball movement by Letchkov on second goal that I didn't know about until years later.
Trifon Ivanov is a warrior.@1:30 he totally got his balls rocked .
RIP Ivanov, a tough streetwise footballer
Zlatko Yankov is criminally underrated especially for giving that cross, but also for his world cup performance generally.
he was an amazing player. very quiet as well so he never really got much coverage
Най великия мач на България, невероятна красота и емоции
I was 12 and still remember the way that day felt in Sofia ! Unreal !
I remember this game being live on BBC1. Great Game.
Watched the match at "Giant stadium" New Jersey and supported Bulgaria ❤️
watched this when I was 12 years.
I still remember when Letchkov scored the 2nd, first time I was really shocked watching football.
When men plays football..... Miss diz era of players.... Passion n guts... Sportsmanship..... Pure man's football
I remember Bulgarian squad in 94’, as a kid I was terrified by Letchkov! Great team
Благодаря , че го публикувахте този клип !
Златни времена !
tova beshe otbora sazdaden ot zlatnoto vrfe me na sotzialima
Bulgaria’s golden generation... 🇧🇬
Золотая Сборная Болгарии. Как мы болели за Болгар и Румын на том Чемпионате. Выиграть и совершить Кам Бек против Германии дорогого стоит. Молодцы!!!!!
One of the best games of tournament.
As an 11 years old Dane, it was a dissapointment that Denmark werent playing World cup 1994. By some reason I supported Bulgaria instead. I will soon forget this match and the great play from the Bulgarians here :)
i remembered newspaper header pointed at letchkovs head "THIS HEAD DESTROYS GERMANY"
I shall say a big respect to that old team of Bulgaria as they defeated Germany with (2-1) in USA 94.,,I had many goodfriends from Bulgaria ,,they are nice people and friendly too..
Bulgarian-TV game-speaker by 2nd bulgarian goal: "God is a Bulgarian !!!!"
That legendary line was actually uttered after Kostadinov's winner at Parc des Princes in 1993 :)
@@chelsblue7370 Sorry, but it was against Germany, wasn´t it?
@@klausbrinck2137 No, I remember it vividly, it was right after THAT 90th min. winner vs. France. Here's the link, the commentary is in Bulgarian, so you have to take my word for it, I'm afraid, it's at 0:11 ruclips.net/video/iXEub2eyABc/видео.html
@@chelsblue7370 Great, Thanks!
@@klausbrinck2137 you're welcome, mein freund :)
The clash of titans, back then Bulgaria was the greatest surprise team in world cup 1994
I was there a crazy experience I will never forget
I loved this, my first ever World Cup as a 10 year old, and I had Bulgaria in a sweepstake!
Fantastic world cup for the Balkan teams.
