Paul Breitner has said that the best team of the 1974 WC was neither Germany nor Clockwork Orange Holland, but Poland.

Lato, Szarmach, Deyna mejor Polonia de todos los tiempos ❤

[Lukasz_G]

It was our greatest chance to win the World Cup and our the biggest "what if". What if it wasn't much of rain?

[MrHoojaszczyk]

German Goalie top notch. Poland should've won.

[paulbradshaw]

As often the case Muller the difference between two pretty well matched teams. Lethal striker and the battle hardened West Germany team wins again....

[alioniltonsantana]

A Polonia tinha um grande time, e enfrentou a poderosa Alemanha que seria a Campeã

[frankhardy]

Was 2 fine teams and cruyff and his Dutch team .. the best 3.

[viniciusfranca]

The Best Poland of all time beat Brazil, Italy, Argentina and made big game against the Host and future World Champions West Germany!

I was never a big fan of Sepp Maier, he was at times error-prone. But in this game he was absolutely majestic.

[mathieuamg]

Sepp Maier. Definetly hero if the match.

[wbugaj]

Whhat a beautiful conditions to play a game.

[peterpak]

This match almost became a water polo game. The pitch ruined these 2 great teams performance.

A very tense match. But - in contrast to all urban-myth followers on here - I daresay although it was a match on the highest level and although the Polish team were world class the German move to the final was a deserved one.
First of all: a draw would have been sufficient to win the group anyway (the German difference in goals was better, remember?); secondly, the Germans played quite well actually and Müller's goal was great (Hoeness even missed a penalty). Sepp Maier had a great day with lots of saves, agreed, but that's also part of being a great team.
Come on, my Polish friends: there was no conspiration on the part of the weather gods, and speculations on whether the Polish side would have beaten the Germans on a sunny day are rubbish. Noone will know that, they might have lost on a hot summer day as well.
What we DO know, though, is that the Germans won the final match against one of the very finest teams of the tournament, the Dutch. On a dry day and with perfect pitch conditions. And they had beaten both the Swedish and Yugoslav teams (who were also excellent and hadn't lost any match in round one).
So do stop this unsubstantiated constant nonsense about "the Germans only won because it rained". It is an urban myth.

[maurocipelli]

Deyna, un grandissimo centrocampista, completo, con grande classe.

[simonberger]

Is it just me, or do the matches of the '74 world cup have more speed, than most matches of the' 94 world cup?

[theguyinthemiddle]

Poland was one of the best in 1974 and 1982. They beat every other team and probably could have beaten Germany if the great Sepp Maier was not there.

[manueldiaz]

De no haber llovido como llovio. Esa tarde la historia ubiera sido distinta para polonia

[agoodchow]

There were East Germany and West Germany, two different teams in World Cup 1974.
Please be clear.

Poland have consistently been one of the more underrated nations in international football despite the Eastern European nation being a perennial source of quality talent. With The Orly having finished 3rd in both the 1974 and 1982 World Cups and reaching as high as fifth place in the 1978 FIFA World Cup Standngs – it’s fair to say that Poland has a strong footballing pedigree. Here's some top talents produced by Poland during the golden era of Polish football in the 70's and 80's :  Zbigniew Boniek, Antoni Szymanowski, Kazimierz Deyna, Janusz Kupcewicz, Grzegorz Lato, Andrzej Szarmach, Władysław, Żmuda and many more others ....

Sí, Polonia, Polonia, como ya he dicho, encarna el mejor fútbol de hoy. Para mí era Polonia uno de los grandes favoritos al cetro del mundo mucho antes de que empezaran los partidos decisivos. Polonia tiene jugadores magníficos, una condición física fantástica, una mentalidad más libre y abierta que los demás equipos del Este, y una compenetración asombrosa. Pienso que para nosotros, los de la selección “Orange” fue una suerte no jugar contra los polacos. Me parecía el equipo más fuerte, más temible. La base de su estilo es la fuerza, la forma atlética, la condición física. Ya en los últimos Juegos Olímpicos de Munich presentaron este mismo equipo poderoso, que mueve continuamente el balón, que busca los espacios libres, que se vuelca una y otra vez en el asalto de la portería contraria. Un equipo que juega de manera arrolladora y generosa, que tiene un gran motor incapaz de un solo desmayo, que se esfuerza de manera continua y titánica, que hace un fútbol veloz, cambiante y moderno.
Para mí, Polonia es un conjunto que resume las excelencias y virtudes del mejor fútbol de hoy. La cátedra. Creo que es el mejor, o uno de los mejores equipos del mundo. (Johan Cruyff - 1974)
