Already 5 years ago (25-11-2020) that #DiegoMaradona left us. One of the all time greats.
When he saw #Netherlands playing #totalfootball at #WorldCup74 he was glued to the screen and loved players like #JohanCruyff, #WillemvanHanegem, #JohnnyRep. Just watch it.

#Netherlands beat #Uruguay 2-0 in the first group match at #WorldCup74, but that result doesn't express the dominance of the #Oranje #totalfootball.
See these 3 examples of fluid attacks that easily could have ended in more #goals.

Youngster #WimRijsbergen was a brave and fearless centre defender.
See this miraculous save in the #WorldCup74 Second Round vs #Brazil.
A defender from #Feyenoord #Rotterdam (aged 22) who kept a.o. #RinusIsrael (aged 32) out of the starting team.

No chance for #Argentina, in the #WorldCup74 Second Round vs #Netherlands.
Immediate #Oranje #totalfootball pressing pushed the Argentines backward and created chance after chance.
Watch the first, with 'midfielders' #WillemvanHanegem and #WimJansen close to scoring.

#WorldCup74 will be remembered because of #JohanCruyff (#14), the captain of vice-worldchampions #Netherlands.
Unstoppable, only by violations as here by #Argentina, #Sweden, #Brazil.

#Totalfootball was based on #skills, #movement and position play. But #Netherlands at #WorldCup74 and earlier #Ajax and #Feyenoord were also seen as teams that played it hard.
#WillemvanHanegem explains why.

#Totalfootball with all players on the opponent's half was strong but also risky.
One mistake, one lost ball and and in the #WorldCup74 First Round #Sweden could quickly break out.
Then the attackers became defenders too, see this example with #JohnnyRep.

Until the 86th minute, #Netherlands leads only 1-0 vs #Uruguay, while dominating the game and creating many chances.
But then, once more a fluid #totalfootball attack and #JohnnyRep scores the liberating 2-0.

A brilliant #totalfootball #goal, the 2-0 from #JohanCruyff in the #WorldCup74 Second Round match vs #Brazil after a clever run and pass by #RuudKrol.
