Book Description
Wembley 1972 (… and other big feats)' is the official translation of Günter Netzer’s autobiography, 'Aus der Tiefe des Raumes' (Rowohlt, 2004). Described by The Sunday Times as ‘a rich memoir’, its publication is intended to mark the fiftieth anniversary of a classic encounter between England and West Germany. The trilogy begun at Wembley in 1966 and continued in Mexico in 1970 was to have a happier conclusion for Günter Netzer and his teammates than the one he predicted to Franz Beckenbauer before the match: “If we concede less than five, we can count it as a success.” Netzer’s dazzling performance, ‘ably assisted by Beckenbauer,’ as another English newspaper put it, marked the end of the Alf Ramsey era. The ‘Kaiser’s’ record is well known. This is Netzer’s ‘account of my lifetime of outstanding achievement’ with Borussia Mönchengladbach, Real Madrid and as general manager of Hamburg SV. Told with candour and humour by the ‘Rebell am Ball’, it offers a chance for those who missed his brief explosion onto the international football scene to know what all the fuss was about. Once he retired from active involvement in football, more prizes would follow for the cool analyses Netzer provided as co-presenter of German television’s most popular soccer broadcast, the ARD-Sportschau. They left no doubt that he is one of the finest heads in German football – besides being a man with unusually big feet.
