Comments

Switzerland 1954 was a goal festival, with an average of 5,38 per game..

Hungary arrived to the final match as the top candidate guided by the 11 goals of Kocsis and with two victory 4-2 in the quarterfinals and semifinals against Brazil and the defending champion Uruguay.

Only 8 minutes into the game, Hungary was defeating Germany 2-0 and everything was ready for a high score but Germany recovered, tied the game in the minute 18 and with just 6 minutes to go in the second half, Helmuth Rahn made the miracle: 3-2 and Germany was the World Champion.
