German football is mourning the loss of one of its greats as Andreas Brehme, the iconic left-back who scored the winning goal for Germany in the 1990 World Cup final, has passed away at the age of 63. Brehme's 85th-minute penalty against Argentina secured the World Cup victory for Germany in Rome, under the leadership of Franz Beckenbauer.
Brehme, who represented Germany 86 times, had a successful club career as well, winning the Bundesliga with Kaiserslautern and Bayern Munich, along with a Serie A title during his time at Inter Milan before retiring in 1998.
