Ms DD Posted May 2, 2007 This was quite hard. Alessandro Costacurta for AC Milan and Italy in 94 So how many points have i got right so far? Which two countries have met each other the most times in the final stages of the world cup and on how many occasions?. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

N.O.R.F Posted May 6, 2007 ^^are you sure? Cant think of others who have met more than three times in the knockout stages of the WC. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A.J. Posted May 8, 2007 This is a good thread but i think no-one should ask a question unless the previous one has been answered with the confirmation of the person answering the question. Ms D.D. Tough question, but i'll go with France v Brazil i know they met in 98&2006 but other then that its purely a guess. could be Holland V Germany as well. defintely in 74&78 not sure about others though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viking Posted May 8, 2007 Originally posted by Northerner: Who was suspended from the European Cup Final (now the Champions League Final) and the World Cup Final in the same year and what year was it? North, I think it's Micheal Ballack. I remember he missed the WC final of 2002 and the same year his Leverkusen lost the CL finals to Zidane (with a wonder goal). I don't remember him playing. But the fact that you called it European Cup means that I'm most likely off the mark. The person I had in mind was Maldini, when fit he always features in Milan's back line. Costacurta plays very rarely and I think has taken a coaching job at Milan. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms DD Posted May 10, 2007 Which two countries have met each other the most times in the final stages of the world cup and on how many occasions?. Brazil V Sweden They met 7 times. Dont ask me the dates. This was asked at a pub quiz a while back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
N.O.R.F Posted May 13, 2007 ^^I need to see evidence. I'm pretty sure they havnt met 7 times. I know they met in the 58 final and in 1994 but dont know of any others. But what pub quizz are you talking of? Viking, your right Ballack was suspended in 2002 finals. But Mrs D&D got it right with Custercurta in 1994. I thought you would have been the one who got it right. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
