The Brazilian team, featuring the likes of Pelé (who was in his fourth and final World Cup), Carlos Alberto, Clodoaldo, Gérson, Jairzinho, Rivelino, and Tostão, is usually regarded as the greatest attacking World Cup team ever.

Summary
First Round
The 1970 World Cup is now remembered as a classic - but, as usual, the tournament was preceded by disputes over the organisation of the event. This World Cup was the first one to be televised in colour. However, to fit into the European viewing schedules, some matches kicked off at noon. This was an unpopular decision with many players and managers because of the intense heat in Mexico at that time of day.

The format of the competition stayed the same as 1966: 16 teams qualified, divided into four groups of four playing each other once in a round-robin format. The 1966 FIFA World Cup, the eighth staging of the World Cup was held in England from 11 July to 30 July There were no seeds, instead the organizers formed geographical ‘sections’ from which the four groups were drawn in Mexico City, on January 10, 1970. Mexico City (in Spanish: Ciudad de México, México DF, México or simply Méjico) is the Capital city of Mexico Events 49 BC - Julius Caesar crosses the Rubicon, signaling the start of civil war. Year 1970 ( MCMLXX) was a Common year starting on Thursday (link shows full calendar of the Gregorian calendar. [1] The top two teams in each group advanced to the quarter-finals. However, for the first time in the World Cup finals, teams level on points at the end of the group stage were separated by goal difference (replacing play-offs and goal average) and where two or more teams had equal goal difference, by the drawing of lots. In Sports such as Ice hockey and football (soccer, goal difference (that is goals scored minus goals conceded is often the first Tiebreaker If a quarter-final or semi-final match resulted in a draw after extra time the referee would have drawn the name of the team to progress to the next round out of a hat.
For the first time, substitutions were allowed in World Cup play. Each team were allowed to make two substitutions during a match. The Soviet Union were the first team to make a substitution in World Cup history against Mexico in the opening match. The USSR national football team was the national football team of the Soviet Union. The Mexican national football team is controlled by the Federación Mexicana de Fútbol and represents Mexico in international football competition Viktor Serebryanikov was the first player to be replaced, by Anatoly Puzach after 45 minutes.

This World Cup also featured the first ever use of yellow and red cards for cautions and expulsions respectively. Misconduct in association football is any conduct by a player which is deemed by the referee to warrant a disciplinary sanction (caution or dismissal in accordance (Note that cautions and expulsions already existed prior to 1970. ) Five yellow cards were shown in the opening Mexico vs USSR match, while no red cards were given throughout the whole tournament.
Controversy surrounded the world cup before a ball was even kicked. For England, the build-up to the tournament took a bizarre turn when their captain was accused of theft. While England were in Colombia for a pre-tournament friendly, Bobby Moore was arrested for allegedly stealing a bracelet from a jeweller's shop. He was released on bail to allow him to appear in the World Cup finals, and the charges were later quietly dropped.
In Group 1, hosts Mexico lived up to the expectations of an entire nation by advancing along with the Soviet Union, though there was controversy over the home side's 1-0 victory over Belgium and their 4-0 win over El Salvador. The Belgium national football team is the national football team of Belgium and is controlled by the Belgian Football Association. The El Salvador national football team is the national team of El Salvador and is controlled by the Federación Salvadoreña de Fútbol.
Group 2 of the opening round produced just six goals in six games as Uruguay, reigning South America champions, and the reigning European champions, Italy, prevail over Sweden and surprise qualifier Israel after a series of dull, uninspired games. The Uruguay national football team is controlled by the Asociación Uruguaya de Fútbol. The Italian national football team is controlled by the Federazione Italiana Giuoco Calcio (FIGC and represents Italy in international football competition The Swedish national football team is the national football team of Sweden and is controlled by the Swedish Football Association.

The first great moments of this memorable World Cup happened in Group 3, where two-time former World champion Brazil were pooled with the current world champions England and solid European sides Czechoslovakia and Romania. The Brazil national football team is the national team of Brazil and is managed by the Brazilian Football Confederation (CBF that represents Brazil in international The English national football team represents England in international football and is controlled by The Football Association, the governing body for football The Czechoslovakia national football team was the national football team of Czechoslovakia, before the country was split into the Czech Republic The Romania national football team is the national football team of Romania and is controlled by the Romanian Football Federation. In the rematch of the 1962 World Cup final, they fell behind early in their opening game against Czechoslovakia, but fought back strongly and eventually won 4-1. Pelé scored one of their goals, but a goal attempt that in which Pele audaciously attempted to lob a shot over Czechoslovak goalkeeper Ivo Viktor from the halfway line, missed the goal by a whisker. Ivo Viktor (born 21 May, 1942 in Křelov) was a Czech football goalkeeper The "Clash of the Champions" between Brazil and England lived up to all expectations. The match is best remembered for a Pelé near-miss. His powerful close-range downward header was kept out by an amazing save from Gordon Banks, who somehow managed to get down to the ball and flick it upwards and over the bar. Gordon Banks, OBE (born 30 December, 1937 in Sheffield, South Yorkshire, England) is a former English footballer In the end, a single Jairzinho goal was enough to win the game for Brazil. Romania ran Brazil close in their third game, but were finally beaten 3-2. England joined Brazil with two 1-0 victories over Romania and Czechoslovakia.

Morocco also got off to a bright start, taking the lead against West Germany in their first match, but the Germans came back to win 2-1. West Germany also went behind against Bulgaria in their second match, but a Gerd Muller hat-trick helped them fight back to win 5-2. Muller hit another hat-trick in the Germans' last group game, scoring all their goals in a 3-1 win over Peru. In the end, Peru eventually advanced along with West Germany after scoring three times in 11 second-half minutes to beat Morocco 3-0.

Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and third-place match
The quarter-finals saw a transformed Italy prevail 4-1 over Mexico after trailing 0-1. The host took the lead against Italy with a Jose Gonzales goal, but his team-mate Gustavo Pena equalised with an own goal before half-time. Italy then took over, and dominated the second half. Two goals from Luigi Riva and one from Gianni Rivera saw them go through 4-1. In Guadalajara, Peru's World Cup adventure ended in the quarter-finals, where they lost 4-2 to Brazil after an entertaining match between two equally attacking teams.
The game between Uruguay and the Soviet Union was goalless until five minutes from the end of extra time, when Victor Esparrago struck to send the South Americans through. The last quarter-final, a rematch of the 1966 World Cup final between England and West Germany, produced one of the great matches of World Cup history. England suffered a serious blow before the game, when their great goalkeeper Gordon Banks was taken ill with food poisoning. His deputy Peter Bonetti stepped into the breach, and early in the second half England had a 2-0 lead and seemed to have West Germany firmly in its grasp. However, West Germany pulled one back with a goal from Beckenbauer in the 68th minute. In a panic, England coach Alf Ramsey decided then to substitute the tiring Bobby Charlton. Sir Alfred Ernest 'Alf' Ramsey (22 January 1920 &ndash 28 April 1999 was a footballer and manager of the English national football team from 1963 to 1974 Sir Robert "Bobby" Charlton, CBE (born 11 October 1937 in Ashington, Northumberland) is a former English Professional Without Charlton, England lost its ability to set its own pace on the game and could not contain the relentless German attacks which eventually resulted in West Germany equalizing eight minutes from time with an Uwe Seeler header. Uwe Seeler (born November 5 1936 in Hamburg) is a former German football official and retired football player Momentum had irrevocably shifted and West Germany avenged the 1966 final loss with Gerd Müller's winning goal in extra time after another Bonetti error, thus, ending England's reign as world champions. Gerhard "Gerd" Müller (German ˈgɛʀt ˈmʏlɐ born November 3, 1945 in Nördlingen) is a former (West German football
The semi-finals featured an exciting final four, all four having won the World Cup in the past: Brazil vs Uruguay, in a rematch of the 1950 World Cup final, and Italy vs West Germany. In the all-South American match, Brazil managed to defeat Uruguay 3-1 despite falling behind 20 minutes into the match. The game was evenly matched for 70 minutes but the Uruguayans found Brazil's attack too much to overcome. This match also featured another bright moment by Pelé: upon holding possession near the box, he managed to rush all alone up to Uruguayan goalkeeper Ladislao Mazurkiewicz and, tipping the ball through his left side, the Brazilian ran through the right side, catching the ball on the run and then taking a shot to the empty goal. Ladislao Mazurkiewicz (born February 14, 1945 in Piriápolis) is an Uruguayan former football goalkeeper of the 1960s Unfortunately, Pelé missed by a sliver again. The other, all-European semi-final was regarded by many as the greatest World Cup game ever. Italy took a 1-0 lead through Roberto Boninsegna on 8 minutes after an excellent "one-two" combination with Luigi Riva. Roberto Boninsegna (born November 13, 1943 in Mantua) is an Italian former football player Luigi Riva (born November 7, 1944) best known as Gigi Riva or by his nickname Rombo di Tuono (Thunder is a former Italian West Germany pressed to equalize for the rest of the game, until the very end when sweeper Karl-Heinz Schnellinger, then with Italy's AC Milan, scored in injury time.

On 104 minutes, Riva made it 3-2 past goalkeeper Sepp Maier, only for Müller to equalize six minutes later. Josef Dieter "Sepp" Maier (born 28 February 1944) is a German former professional football Goalkeeper. Television cameras were still replaying this goal when Italy midfielder Gianni Rivera, left unmarked near the penalty spot, volleyed a fine Boninsegna cross past Maier for the winning goal in the 111th minute.

Final
In the final, Brazil struck first, with Pelé heading in a cross by Revelino at the 18th minute. Roberto Boninsegna equalized for Italy after a blunder in the Brazilian defence. In the second half, Brazil's firepower and creativity was too much for an Italian side that clung to their cautious defensive system. Gérson fired in a powerful shot for the second goal, and then helped provide the third, with a long free kick to Pelé who headed down into the path of the onrushing Jairzinho. Gérson, full name Gérson de Oliveira Nunes, (born January 11, 1941 in Niterói) nickname Canhotinha de ouro (literally Golden Jairzinho, birth name Jair Ventura Filho, (born December 25 1944) is a former Brazilian footballer. Pele capped his superb performance by drawing the Italian defence in the center and feeding captain Carlos Alberto on the right flank for the final score. See Carlos Alberto for other football players. Carlos Alberto Torres (born July 17, 1944, Rio de Janeiro Carlos Alberto's goal, after a series of moves by the Brazilian team from the left to the center, is considered one of the greatest goals ever scored in the history of the tournament.
A total of 8 outfield players from Brazil passed the ball until Captain Carlos Alberto hammered the ball into the corner of the Italian goal following an inch perfect pass across the Italian 18 yard box from Pelé, prompted by the intelligent Tostão, who, with his back to the goal, told Pelé that Alberto was steaming in on the right flank. Tostão started the move 5 yards from the left of the Brazilian 18 yard box, then ran the length of the field to the Italian box without touching the ball again to tell Pelé to lay it off for Alberto. The players involved in the passes in order were Tostão, Brito, Clodoaldo, Pelé, Gérson, defender Clodoaldo beat 4 Italian players in his own half before passing to Rivelino who hit a perfect pass down the wing to Jairzinho. Jairzinho crossed from the wing to the centre of the box to Pelé who held the ball up to play a pass for Alberto to smash it home. The only outfield players not involved in the move were Antonio and Piazza. The full team was Carlos Alberto, Felix, Piazza, Brito, Clodoaldo, Marco Antonio, Jairzinho, Gérson, Tostão, Pelé and Rivelino. Brazil won the World Cup with 19 goals scored by 7 players, all of whom featured in the Carlos Alberto goal. Before the finals in Mexico, Brazil had to play the qualifying rounds against Colombia, Venezuela and Paraguay. Brazil was far superior winning all 6 games, scoring 23 goals and conceding only 2. In the last match of the qualifying rounds Brazil beat Paraguay 1 - 0 and had the largest official audience ever recorded for a football match, with 183,341 spectators in Brazil's Maracanã Stadium. In total the Brazilian team won all 12 games , scoring 42 goals and conceding only 8.
This victory consecrated the first tri-campeão (three-time champions) in football history.
With this third win after 1958 and 1962, Brazil earned the right to retain the Jules Rimet Trophy permanently. The 1958 FIFA World Cup, the sixth staging of the World Cup was hosted by Sweden from June 8 to June 29. The 1962 FIFA World Cup, the seventh staging of the World Cup was held in Chile from May 30 to June 17. (Ironically, it was stolen in 1983 while on display in Rio de Janeiro and never recovered.

Brazilian right winger Jairzinho scored at least one goal in each of the six games that Brazil played (in the first game, against Czechoslovakia, he scored two), a feat which has never been repeated. However, the top scorer of the tournament was West Germany's Gerd Müller, with an impressive 10 goals in the competition. Müller incredibly scored hat-tricks in two consecutive games, against Bulgaria and Peru in the group stage. A hat-trick in Sports is associated with succeeding at anything three times in three consecutive attempts
