Take for instance 1974 World Cup. Which side is remembered more the winners or the Dutch side of Rep, Cruyff and Neeskens and their commitment to "total football".

Same with West Germany's other World Cup, 1954 it was all about the Hungarians and in 1990 the whole tournament was written off as a turgid bore fest with only Cameroon remembered with any fondness
Sorry but that's rubbish, 1990 was a great tournament, IMO one of my favourite World Cups. Italy and West Germany were outstanding and there were some real classic matches.
