Talk:Italy v West Germany (1970 FIFA World Cup)

message: The article's name is impossible to be remembered for a English-speaking guy, so why don't we move this article to a more fitting title, such as Italy v Germany (1970), Game of the Century (football), Italy-Germany 4-3, or whatever else? By the way, this is the English Wikipedia, not the German one. --Angelo 01:18, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: The current title of this article is a peacock term.  Sure, some people will say that this is the game of the century - but (especially bearing in mind that this is the English Wikipedia) other people would say that it was Puskas' Hungary beating England 6-3, or indeed a certain match in 1966...  There's no unambiguous answer, and for that reason I'm moving it to Italy  4 – 3 West Germany (1970). FlagSteward (talk) 11:42, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  As far as I know there is no other soccer game, that is literally mentioned on a commorative plaque as the "Game of the century". I do not want to move the article, but I feel there is a strong indication of the former name of the article as being just. --Goodgirl - talk to me 20:15, 2 November 2008 (UTC)

message: I have changed the translation of the Ernst Huberty quote "Ausgerechnet Schnellinger!" from "It had to be Schnellinger!" to "Schnellinger, of all people!", which is a more literal translation and, in my opinion, better captures the surprise and incredulity in Huberty's words.

replies: text: I had thought of doing the same earlier, I totally agree with the latter being the better translation. --Goodgirl - talk to me 20:05, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Translation of "Ausgerechnet Schnellinger!" 

message: The article is biased where it says "The stress and effort profused in winning the hard-fought match proved to be the undoing of the Italian team in the subsequent final game, where the azzurri were roundly defeated by Brazil 4 goals to one." This sentence basically says, they would've won if that game hadn't been so hard-fought. Can anyone think of a better alternative?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.86.151.84 (talk) 22:47, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Bias in the Article 

message: The page shows that two men from each side were red-carded, does that mean the final minutes were played with nine on each side?
Also, shouldn't short mention be made of Franz Beckenbauer's continuing to play with a broken clavicle (his arm was taped to his body)?Historian932 (talk) 00:58, 29 June 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  How many were on the field, and mention of Beckenbauer's injury 

message: Why this template about lacking sources. I think if anything is lacking, a : should be added where any problem is found. This game was played even before "my time" (I'm born in 1964, and only have some minor recollections of this Wold Cup) - but summaries have been aired at many occasions also in later years. It's really one of the most memorable World Cup games ever. OK an opinion, but I think it's shared by very many neutral watchers. Boeing720 (talk) 15:20, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

replies: text: Italy v West Germany (1970 FIFA World Cup) →  – In 2008, this page was moved to the current title but I disagree with the move (there may have been different rules concerning the pages' titles). Lots of pages have as title the name they're remember as for example "Battle of Santiago" or "Disgrace of Gijon". Why don't we call this page with the title I've I've suggested above?
