Dive For The Cameras (1990)

What would only be recorded as the worst FIFA World Cup final, was the dry 1-0 win over Argentina by Germany. The game was sent downhill when Jürgen Klinsmann dived in the penalty box with finesse and precision, winning the German side a penalty that would win them the game. The dive also caused Argentine defender Pedro Monzon to be sent off with a red card, becoming the first player to receive a red in the final.
