Johan Cruyff Netherlands vs Argentina | World Cup 1974 Football - 1974 World Cup - Second Round, Group A - Holland 4 Argentina 0 (26 06 1974) Johan Cruyff on the ball in the Parkstadion, Gelsenkirchen, West Germany. The Dutch team had agreed with adidas to wear their shirts with their famous three strips on the arms, but Cruyff had agreed a deal with Puma, and consequently Cruyff only wore two strips on his football shirt. The 1974 World Cup saw the most one-sided clash between the pair with Rinus Michels’ wonderful Netherlands side steamrolling Argentina. Playing at their first World Cup in 36 years, the Dutch coasted through the first group stage while Argentina had to rely on a 4-1 defeat of whipping boys Haiti to advance. That set up a second group phase meeting in which the gulf in class was quickly apparent – Johan Cruyff and Ruud Krol putting the Netherlands 2-0 up by half-time. Second-half goals from Johnny Rep and Cruyff finished the job for Michels’ men. #cruyff #netherlan...
