Andreas Brehme, the scorer of the winning goal in the 1990 World Cup Final, has passed away at the age of 63. Brehme died “suddenly and unexpectedly” in the night from a heart attack, his widow Susanne confirmed.
Brehme rose to prominence with Kaiserslautern in the early 1980s, before representing Bayern Munich and Inter Milan. He earned 86 caps for West Germany and captained a reunified Germany at Euro 92. After hanging up his boots, he coached Kaiserslautern from 2000-06.
