Mexico ’70: the tournament of superlatives

The best of all time

The best team of all time, starring the greatest player of all time, contesting the best ever World Cup final, sealing a (then) record third title with the best goal ever scored in a final, in a tournament widely considered as the best World Cup of all time.

Mexico 1970 is a synonym for superlatives. Five decades on it represents an enduring benchmark. What made that tournament so great? It had a beautiful story to tell.
