Brilliant Cruyff vs Sweden, incl. the Cruyffturn #WorldCup74

Remember this moment so well….nearly 50 years ago … I reckon Olsson is still going the wrong way..⚽️😀

Tako izgleda jednostavno i lako,a zašto? Johan je INGENIOZNI fudbalski umetnik i znalac.VRH!

Cruyff is the only player from the 70s that doesn't look out of place in today's football. Grew up watching this guy and he was simply beautiful to watch.

0-0 that's a crime some of those were sitters

It's true that Cruyff's skill level was spectacular and he was a pleasure to watch. But notice how this Swedish team was robust and they wouldn't give them an inch. I remember how on every cross the Swedes often had two players on the Dutch player going for the header. The Swedes did not have the skill level this Dutch team had, but defensively they did not give them remotely as much space as these other teams did they played on their way to the final.

The best playmaker I've ever seen. He knitted everything together from every area of the pitch. Easily up there with Di Stéfano, Pelé, Maradona, Messi, as the best ever.

"Cryff turn" never heard that before - but it was my own #1 move, and it caught even much better players out again and again. Great player - and fair, a huge quality in itself.

The more I grow older the more I think Cruyff was probably the best football player ever. Messi, Maradona and Pele world class but Cruyff..o lala

Cruyff was amazing in that tournament. The amount of chances he created for his teammates was crazy.

We have great players🇳🇱🇳🇱❤💯
