England's biggest football rivals
England has a number of enemies on the pitch, sharing rivalries with Argentina, Germany and Scotland. The 1986 World Cup game between England and Argentina is perhaps the most famous of their matches, it involved Diego Maradona’s infamous “Hand of God” incident in which the player punched the ball into the net. England went on to lose the game and ultimately were knocked out of the tournament. Then, in 1998, England's young star David Beckham was given a red card after provocation from Diego Simeone. The game also saw England centre-back Sol Campbell having a last-minute goal disallowed.
Despite England's defeat of Germany in the 1966 Football World Cup Final, the rivalry in major competitions has been fairly one-sided. There have been famous matches in the Football World Cups of 1970, 1990 and 2010 all resulting in German victories. England fans will struggle to forget Germany's penalty win against England in the 1996 Euros when current English manager Gareth Southgate missed a penalty to send the Germans to the final.
