This time around, West Germany were victorious. Led by Matthäus, they beat Argentina with a 1-0 victory to become world cup winners for the third time in history. Not only a great player but a great captain, Matthäus was invaluable 🥇
After beating England on penalties in the semi-finals with Matthäus scoring in the shootout, West Germany made the final where they were to face Argentina in a rematch of the 1986 final ⭐️
Thanks to a 2-0 victory, Brazil became five-time world champions, the most by any country in competition history. Though many of Brazil’s players shone along the way, Rivaldo’s impact was key to the feat ⭐️
Ronaldo went on to score the second and Rivaldo was key in the goal again. Kléberson charged forwards and passed in the direction of Rivaldo. Rivaldo cleverly let the ball run through his legs and the ball reached Ronaldo. From there, Ronaldo controlled before finding the net 😆
