Goal! The World Cup (U)
Goal! is the legendary official FIFA documentary film of the 1966 World Cup in England. It documents England's historic victory over West Germany, featuring atmospheric, non-stop football footage and behind-the-scenes moments from the tournament, a must-see for all football fans.
Be transported back in time to 1966, the year England won the world cup. Shot in a documentary style, it provides all the atmosphere and excitement of the event and shows all the great moments, Charlton's great goal against Mexico and the brutal tackles on Pele. Particularly good is the build up to the day of the final and of course the final itself. The celebrations after the match are superb as well. It's a remarkable document of a time that seems so long ago but is only 60 years ago.
Screened as part of TV Gems and 1966: The Year England Won the World Cup.
