    Scotland v Holland 1978. For a few tantalising minutes it looked like we might achieve the impossible and qualify for the next stage. And there was THAT goal.

    Of the world cup games I have watched:

    Germany v Boliva -1994 - 1st ever world cup game
    Italy v Nigeria - L16 194 - Baggio turning the game on its head
    Brazil v Holland - QF 1994
    Scotland v Brazil - 1st Scotland game and great build up, getting home from school to watch build up, Collins scoring...
    Argentina v Serbia - 2006 - fantastic football from Argentina including that Cambiasso goal.

    Games that have only seen the highlights off.... too many to choose from

    1982 and 1970 world cups looked the greatest/most entertaining though.

    1954 Hungray team looked pretty leathal too.

    Brazil v Czechs June 17 - 1962. The game got me interested in football. I liked the goal celebrations!

    Would agree, Brazil were brilliant.

    Was at the Scotland Brazil game in 82 and although we lost 4-1 the atmosphere was superb, especially following Narey's "toe poke", so that's one of my favourite world cup games.

    What was it? 2-1?

    Still remember the goals tho.

    The hand of god and the individual brilliance from Maradonna.

    Like you got the South Korea score wrong?

    I seem to recall enjoying Bulgaria 2-1 Germany in 1994. Classic upset

    Brazil v Scotland in 1998 wasnt bad either, mostly.

    Was there a Romania v Sweden in 94 that was 4-3 or something like that too?

    Best game outside the WC would be Spain 4 -3 Yugoslavia in Euro 2000 - 2 injury time goals, amazing finish. That was a good tournament- maybe the last good one.

    Narey tried to out-Brazil, Brazil and simply served to annoy them and they decided to start playing. Did we touch the ball after that?

    Scotland has only ever won 4 games in the World Cup finals:

    2-0 v. Zaire in 1974
    3-2 v. Holland in 1978
    5-2 v. New Zeland in 1982
    2-1 v. Sweden in 1990

    I was at the Zaire and New Zealand games, so they stand out for me for purely patriotic reasons.

    The win against Holland was our best ever performance, but it is also one of the best
    games I've seen in the World Cup.

    Scotland qualified for 5 consecutive finals between 1974 and 1990 and were the first team to achieve
    this. Others had obviously played in 5 consecutive finals, but none of them had had to come through
    5 qualifying tournaments to do it.

    Overall, the best game I've seen on TV would be the 1970 final between Italy and Brazil.
