i'll give you that one richie :y
Brazil were awarded it "for keeps" after they won it 3 times, the original trophy was kept at the Brazilian FA headquarters and placed in a cabinet with missile proof glass at the front.....unfortunately the wooden back was prised off by thieves and stolen in 1982.......it's never been recovered (probably melted down for the gold), Brazil were given a replica :o :o

The best world cup team of all time .......in my view. They destroyed Italy 4-1 in the final if memory serves. A lesson in how attacking flair (Brazil)...is always better to watch than defensive strength (Italy)
I was only ten at the time......but what a great game....... :y :y :y :y
