The Miracle of Bern | 1954 World Cup Final | Sweden

Hungary led two goals to nil after eight minutes. They had not lost in thirty-one matches. Their opponents had lost to them eight goals to three three weeks earlier.

We are somebody again; Wir Sind Wieder Wer.Four words. One World Cup final. The birth of modern West Germany.#FootballFiles #FootballHistory #WorldCup #Switzerland1954 #MiracleOfBern #WestGermany #Hungary #Puskas #FIFA #FootballPodcast
