Re: Best Ever Commentary
England v West Germany in the early mid 70s, probably the European Championship. Beckenbauer had been his usual imperious self and Coleman had spent the game becoming increasingly florid in his appreciation of his abilities. About ten minutes from the end of the game "Der Kaiser" played a dreadful pass out wide that sailed about 10 ft over the head of the German player it was aimed at and into touch . Coleman without a hint of irony said "That pass was just too good for the player".
