| The Jules Rimet Cup, named after the founder of the FIFA World Cup competition, became Brazilian property outright when the team's victory in Mexico saw the cup pass into their hands for the third time in twelve years. That, however, was not the end of the saga of the "Golden Goddess". The trophy was stolen in Brazil and, unlike in England in 1966, was never seen again. The CBF was given a replica for their trophy cabinet. |
| At 65 years, 10 months and 25 days Otto Rehhagel became the oldest coach to win a European Championship, breaking Dutchman Rinus Michels's record set in 1988. |
| Both of Robert Earnshaw's parents were keen footballers. His mum Rita was also a boxer! |
