Italy 1970 World Cup. The semi-final of the 1970 FIFA World Cup between Italy and West Germany is known in those countries as the "Game of the Century" (Italian: Partita del Secolo; German: Jahrhundertspiel; Spanish: Partido Del Siglo). It was played on 17 June 1970 at the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City. Italy won 4:3 after five goals were scored in extra time, the only FIFA World Cup game in which this has happened.

Growing up in the 70's you were forced to pick a football team very early on and schooldays were made up of ribbing your mates if your team beat theirs so you always picked the top teams and not necessarily the local team (Leyton Orient weren't noted for their first division presence) to avoid the abuse if your team lost.
It's with regard to these memories that I'm exceptionally pleased to tell you that we've teamed up with the UK's leading online retro football shirt merchant to bring you all the old retro football shirts our heroes used to wear whilst we watched them on the terraces or on "The Big Match"
