A few World Cup matches are bigger than their result — they changed how the game was remembered.
The 1950 final round decider, the "Maracanazo", saw Uruguay silence a packed Maracanã by beating hosts Brazil. The 1954 "Miracle of Bern" gave West Germany an unlikely title. The 1970 semi-final between Italy and West Germany, a 4-3 thriller in extra time, is still nicknamed the Game of the Century. And the 1986 quarter-final between Argentina and England gave us two of the most replayed goals in history.
Watching old footage of these games is the fastest way to understand why certain rivalries and reputations run so deep. The modern game stands on top of these matches.
