What a gift! 757 01:15:58,792 --> 01:16:01,999 Will this be the 4th goal? 758 01:16:02,417 --> 01:16:04,333 Fritz Walter kicks the corner again 759 01:16:04,750 --> 01:16:07,666 with his right foot. The ball is deflected. Goal! 760 01:16:08,084 --> 01:16:11,291 Goal for Germany! Goal! Otmar Walter, 761 01:16:12,000 --> 01:16:13,041 Otmar Walter... 762 01:16:14,084 --> 01:16:15,624 Germany 4, Austria 1 ! 763 01:16:16,042 --> 01:16:17,916 I'm speechless. 764 01:16:20,084 --> 01:16:22,833 You can clearly see that it's almost as if... 765 01:16:23,250 --> 01:16:26,499 When you see their expressions, even from this distance, 766 01:16:26,917 --> 01:16:29,749 our players already seem to be resigned. It seems as if... 767 01:16:30,167 --> 01:16:32,833 I'd like... let's forget it. 768 01:16:33,250 --> 01:16:36,583 Happel has passed directly to the Germans again. 769 01:16:37,000 --> 01:16:40,208 What's wrong today? Wagner to Probst, Probst to Körner 2. 770 01:16:40,625 --> 01:16:43,249 Körner 2 tries a trick, but it doesn't work. 771 01:16:43,667 --> 01:16:46,874 Körner 2 passes to Stojaspal who passes back to Körner 2, 772 01:16:47,292 --> 01:16:51,874 who passes back to Probst. Probst kicks and misses the ball. 773 01:16:52,292 --> 01:16:55,124 Körner 2 should have taken a shot by now. 774 01:16:55,542 --> 01:16:58,041 Stojaspal should have taken a shot by now. 775 01:16:58,459 --> 01:17:01,708 But the speed the Germans are showing today is no magic spell. 776 01:17:02,125 --> 01:17:03,874 We're just too slow. 777 01:17:04,292 --> 01:17:09,499 Stojaspal wants to pass to Probst, but he is covered by Liebrich. 778 01:17:09,917 --> 01:17:14,916 It's almost as if Probst were the baby and Liebrich his mother. 779 01:17:20,500 --> 01:17:23,333 So who are we playing in the final game? 780 01:17:23,750 --> 01:17:28,124 You're interested? I thought it was just "24 men chasing a ball"? 781 01:17:28,542 --> 01:17:33,291 You mean recently? I was just an ignorant child. Well? 782 01:17:35,292 --> 01:17:36,499 Hungary! 783 01:17:38,959 --> 01:17:43,291 They beat Uruguay 4-2 in overtime. - What a mess! 784 01:17:43,709 --> 01:17:46,458 Those wild and woolly strikers again! 785 01:17:46,875 --> 01:17:48,666 Let's hope we don't lose big time. 786 01:17:50,167 --> 01:17:51,458 What are you saying? 787 01:17:51,875 --> 01:17:55,541 We aren't going to lose again! That wouldn't be fair! 788 01:17:55,959 --> 01:17:59,291 Oh yeah! Good idea! Let's apply to the FIFA for a fair outcome 789 01:17:59,709 --> 01:18:03,083 of the championship! - Okay, wise guy. I tell you this. 790 01:18:03,500 --> 01:18:06,708 We'll win and make shashlik of the Hungarians! 791 01:18:07,125 --> 01:18:11,083 You mean goulash, dear. - When I say shashlik, I mean shashlik. 792 01:18:11,625 --> 01:18:14,208 Okay. What do you bet? 793 01:18:16,250 --> 01:18:19,541 If we have kids, I get to choose the names. 794 01:18:20,750 --> 01:18:22,374 If Germany wins. 795 01:18:23,459 --> 01:18:24,708 Otherwise I do. 796 01:18:26,542 --> 01:18:29,749 "As far as I'm concerned, you are the natural successor to Fritz Walter. 797 01:18:30,167 --> 01:18:32,624 Good luck. Yours, Carmen Ballmann." 798 01:18:33,042 --> 01:18:34,083 Well? 799 01:18:34,500 --> 01:18:38,541 Carmen Ballmann! Admit it, Horst. You wrote that yourself! 800 01:18:38,959 --> 01:18:44,041 Hey, she's an absolute soccer expert. There's no doubt about it. 801 01:18:45,000 --> 01:18:49,374 Look at that, Fritz. The kids. I bet we interrupted their prayers. 802 01:18:49,792 --> 01:18:52,583 What good little boys. - Hey, isn't that the guy 803 01:18:53,000 --> 01:18:56,041 who crossed the pitch with a guide dog? - Exactly! 804 01:18:56,459 --> 01:19:01,374 Hey, guys. I know you rarely use your brains, so I'll say this slowly: 805 01:19:01,792 --> 01:19:04,208 We are in the final! 806 01:19:05,000 --> 01:19:09,416 The game where they drape you with gold and carry you off the pitch. 807 01:19:09,834 --> 01:19:12,958 And they make statues of men like me. - Or hamburger... 808 01:19:13,375 --> 01:19:15,791 if you don't find the goal soon. - Right. 809 01:19:16,209 --> 01:19:17,749 What about your goals? 6-1 ! 810 01:19:18,167 --> 01:19:21,541 Everybody got to try today, but you just picked your nose. 811 01:19:21,959 --> 01:19:26,583 Come on, let's go where real guys like us are respected. To Toni's. 812 01:19:27,000 --> 01:19:29,541 I gotta give him a talking to for letting 'em score. 813 01:19:31,459 --> 01:19:33,124 Sleep tight, guys. 814 01:19:33,542 --> 01:19:35,166 But not 8 goals again. 815 01:19:35,584 --> 01:19:39,958 Or they'll say, the Turks were weak, the Yugoslavians were unlucky... 816 01:19:40,375 --> 01:19:43,166 Right. 4-3... We could live with that. 817 01:19:43,584 --> 01:19:46,416 The best thing would be if they beat us in overtime. 818 01:19:46,834 --> 01:19:49,999 I'm fed up with this! Why are you talking about losing? 819 01:19:50,417 --> 01:19:53,458 Why would we lose? - Of course I want to win, but... 820 01:19:53,875 --> 01:19:54,874 But what? 821 01:19:55,584 --> 01:19:59,874 I never thought I'd say this, but take the Boss, for example. 822 01:20:00,292 --> 01:20:03,541 All he talks about is stuffing Grosics's goal. 823 01:20:03,959 --> 01:20:06,249 You know what? He's right. 824 01:20:09,917 --> 01:20:16,208 I'd like to thank you for this unscheduled talk, Mr. Herberger. 825 01:20:16,625 --> 01:20:19,124 Wasn't our participation in the final unscheduled? 826 01:20:19,917 --> 01:20:23,166 Is there some kind of secret about this German team? 827 01:20:23,584 --> 01:20:26,458 It has one brain, the thinker and leader, Fritz Walter. 828 01:20:27,209 --> 01:20:29,749 Our success is unthinkable without that key figure. 829 01:20:30,167 --> 01:20:33,749 If he'd been injured we wouldn't be sitting here now. 830 01:20:34,167 --> 01:20:36,416 Herberger! Herberger! 831 01:20:41,459 --> 01:20:42,458 Strange, huh? 832 01:20:42,917 --> 01:20:47,083 Those are the same people who were hostile to you, 833 01:20:47,500 --> 01:20:51,083 because you gave up the first game for lost. 834 01:20:52,042 --> 01:20:56,374 You're wrong. I had a strategy that was supposed to win the game. 835 01:20:56,792 --> 01:20:59,708 Unfortunately, it was a big failure. 836 01:21:01,250 --> 01:21:05,083 I don't want to be presumptuous, but 837 01:21:05,667 --> 01:21:09,749 do you really think you stand a chance against Hungary? 838 01:21:12,709 --> 01:21:17,291 If it's sunny, the Hungarians will win. We won't be able to stop them. 839 01:21:17,709 --> 01:21:19,624 Our way of playing's inferior to theirs. 840 01:21:20,042 --> 01:21:24,249 But what if it rains? That's Fritz Walter weather. 841 01:21:25,542 --> 01:21:26,874 The turf gets soggy. 842 01:21:28,375 --> 01:21:30,958 Then we stand a chance. 843 01:21:50,750 --> 01:21:51,833 Matthias! 844 01:21:53,750 --> 01:21:56,374 Matthias, wake up! Come on, wake up! 845 01:21:58,250 --> 01:21:59,708 What's up? 846 01:22:00,375 --> 01:22:02,999 Get up. We're going on a little trip. 847 01:22:12,542 --> 01:22:14,874 Whose car is this? 848 01:22:15,292 --> 01:22:17,708 I borrowed it from the pastor. 849 01:22:18,125 --> 01:22:19,166 Nice. 850 01:22:25,500 --> 01:22:27,083 Where are we going? 851 01:22:27,500 --> 01:22:30,374 To Bern, to see the final. - What? 852 01:22:30,792 --> 01:22:34,083 You said the Boss only wins the big games when you're there. 853 01:22:44,667 --> 01:22:47,666 The Final Game 854 01:23:04,875 --> 01:23:06,208 Damn it! 855 01:23:09,209 --> 01:23:11,958 Gentlemen, we lost the first game to Hungary 8-3. 856 01:23:12,375 --> 01:23:14,166 That was painful. 857 01:23:17,000 --> 01:23:19,083 But as you all know, 858 01:23:19,500 --> 01:23:23,499 every good thing has its bad sides... 859 01:23:24,375 --> 01:23:26,583 and vice versa. 860 01:23:27,459 --> 01:23:29,541 So what do 8 goals teach us? 861 01:23:32,000 --> 01:23:37,208 Hungary is an exceptional team. Unbeaten for 4 years. 862 01:23:37,917 --> 01:23:39,999 Besides Lorant, Kocsis, Bozsik 863 01:23:40,417 --> 01:23:45,333 and Puskas, they only have players who have never lost 864 01:23:45,750 --> 01:23:48,249 with the national team. 865 01:23:49,417 --> 01:23:53,166 But that doesn't mean it isn't possible. 866 01:23:54,375 --> 01:23:55,666 Because... 867 01:23:56,625 --> 01:23:59,416 we also scored three goals. 868 01:24:00,834 --> 01:24:04,874 That means they're vulnerable. Here... 869 01:24:06,959 --> 01:24:08,041 on the left. 870 01:24:08,459 --> 01:24:11,999 Bozsik is so offensive that he leaves gaping holes behind him. 871 01:24:12,667 --> 01:24:15,374 We have to use that space. Hans... 872 01:24:16,667 --> 01:24:19,624 that goes especially for you. 873 01:24:20,042 --> 01:24:23,041 Puskas has recovered. He'll be playing. 874 01:24:23,459 --> 01:24:28,958 He might be weak, but let's assume that he's dying to go after us. 875 01:24:30,042 --> 01:24:32,874 Werner Liebrich is going to cover him. Now men, 876 01:24:33,292 --> 01:24:39,166 if we want to win today, we have to get Hungary where it hurts. 877 01:24:39,584 --> 01:24:41,541 And that isn't Puskas. 878 01:24:45,500 --> 01:24:47,083 It's Hidegkuti! 879 01:24:47,500 --> 01:24:52,916 He's just a center-forward, but he pulls the strings in midfield. 880 01:24:53,334 --> 01:24:57,374 He runs their game. We have to go for him. 881 01:24:58,792 --> 01:25:03,583 That's your job, Horst. Get on his tail and stay there. 882 01:25:04,000 --> 01:25:06,208 I want him to dream about you tonight. 883 01:25:10,417 --> 01:25:15,749 We have a big tactical advantage. We know Hungary's strengths. 884 01:25:16,792 --> 01:25:21,624 But they don't know ours. They don't know how strong we are. 885 01:25:23,625 --> 01:25:26,999 They don't know that we're strong enough to beat them. 886 01:26:28,459 --> 01:26:33,249 Adi, get those cleats ready. - Nothing I'd rather do, Sepp. 887 01:26:39,500 --> 01:26:42,666 It's okay, Wilhelm. We do our best. 888 01:26:46,959 --> 01:26:50,999 Hey guys, it's time. Those guys gotta show that they're real men. 889 01:26:51,417 --> 01:26:55,249 We lost the war. We'll lose the final, too. 890 01:26:55,667 --> 01:26:57,583 Oh, Pastor, you're here, too? 891 01:27:06,792 --> 01:27:09,541 No idea what's wrong with this crate. 892 01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:13,374 I think it's just running on two cylinders. 893 01:28:48,667 --> 01:28:51,166 Germany in the World Cup final, 894 01:28:51,584 --> 01:28:52,958 a huge sensation, 895 01:28:53,375 --> 01:28:55,749 a real soccer miracle. A miracle 896 01:28:56,167 --> 01:28:58,458 that actually came true. 897 01:28:58,875 --> 01:29:00,958 We owe it to our players' sense of the game 898 01:29:01,375 --> 01:29:06,291 and the perfection of their style. The match is about to begin. 899 01:29:06,709 --> 01:29:10,624 So, no long introductions, just the starting lineup. 900 01:29:12,250 --> 01:29:15,666 ...that beat Austria 6-1 in the opening round. 901 01:29:16,084 --> 01:29:18,166 The goalie is Düsseldorf's Turek. 902 01:29:18,584 --> 01:29:20,624 Hamburg's Posipal and Kohlmeyer 903 01:29:21,042 --> 01:29:22,874 from Kaiserslautern in defense. 904 01:29:23,292 --> 01:29:26,624 In midfield, Eckel and Liebrich from Kaiserslautern 905 01:29:27,042 --> 01:29:28,749 and Mai from Fürth. 906 01:29:29,167 --> 01:29:32,249 Rahn is the right winger. He comes from Essen. 907 01:29:32,667 --> 01:29:34,499 Then Morlock from Nuremberg, 908 01:29:34,917 --> 01:29:39,291 the Walter brothers from Kaiserslautern and Cologne's Schäfer. 909 01:29:40,792 --> 01:29:44,541 Referee Link from England has just blown the whistle to start the game. 910 01:29:44,959 --> 01:29:51,166 He's the same official who refereed the first game against Hungary. 911 01:30:39,209 --> 01:30:42,333 Oh shit! This early in the game! 912 01:30:42,750 --> 01:30:46,166 Now we don't stand a chance. - Why can't they watch out? 913 01:30:46,584 --> 01:30:49,666 If this continues, I'm leaving. Jesus! 914 01:30:50,084 --> 01:30:53,499 Our fears have come true. 915 01:30:53,917 --> 01:30:57,374 The Hungarians' lightning start had given them the lead. 916 01:31:36,709 --> 01:31:42,124 It'll be 1 2-0. And we Germans will be the fools. Come on, I've had it. 917 01:31:43,167 --> 01:31:46,374 A stupid mistake. Just bad luck. 918 01:31:46,792 --> 01:31:49,708 But it's still 2-0 for Hungary. 919 01:31:50,292 --> 01:31:54,374 If we have a boy, he'll be Rüdiger. If it's a girl, she'll be Roswitha. 920 01:31:56,667 --> 01:31:57,833 Roswitha? 921 01:32:04,709 --> 01:32:08,083 Come on, Germany! Come on, Germany! 922 01:32:39,709 --> 01:32:41,333 Come on, guys!
