Germany's Comeback
One year after the fall of the Berlin Wall, Germany got back at Argentina and earned its third World Cup trophy. In the most defensive World Cup in history the highlights were Cameroon and Colombia - considered serious contenders for the title - and German coach Franz Beckenbauer, the second man after Zagalo to have won World Cups both as a player (1974) and as a coach.
