West Germany that is. Interesting game for you younger folks to watch:

I had the highlights taped and I watched the dribble leading to the cross for Uruguay's 2nd goal (minute 5:20) about 20 times in slow motion until I mastered it and even to this day often times use it.

Thanks. I always take up my dads recommendations regarding classic games, and I always enjoy watching them. This one was pretty entertaining as well.

Nice, I also did similar except my influence was Zidane for this move.

I also tried Ronaldinhos elastico, thats a pretty hard one, I have yet to completely master it.

I did this things in the own penalty box 2 meters away from our goal and when ever I lost the ball (and got scored) everybody looked mad at me and I played cool as if I dont give a shit ... lol

great game

I believe that was a preperational match for the wc?

germany had one hell of a team back then. every single player a real character and a legend for the years to come; a real golden generation.

and uruguay is the most incredible team in world football. how such a small country, not being quite wealthy, always managed to place itself in the world elite is way beyond me. massive respect to them

^ Yes this was a friendly match just before the World Cup '90.
I get a kick out of Voeller's goal in that clip....
Clearly their team after the unification hasn't been as strong (no world cups won since then.)
By the way PB, I actually like W. Germany's away green jersies!
Below I post for you one of their other good friendlies wearing the green kits:
