[edit] Requested move
Football World Cup 1954 → 1954 FIFA World Cup – following the consensus of naming the World Cup articles as FIFA World Cup in Wikipedia, and consistency of naming the major international football tournaments.
Discuss here: Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football/Competitions#Requested move of Football World Cup articles. --Pkchan 10:42, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Uncited section
This world cup has been subject to controversy when Hungarian superstar Puskás claimed that after entering the German lockerroom after the match he found many of them vomiting. The proceeding months saw many of them also develop jaundice. In 2004 a lockerroom attendant uncoverred that he found syringes in the German room after the match, aiding the doping allegations.
How does a 2004 locker room attendant contribute to the controversy 50 years after the fact? Furthermore, do we have any sources for this? I've removed the statement until we can get some sources. Ian Manka Talk to me! 06:38, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

- That paragraph you eliminated seems to be bad English from a native Hungarian speaker. He must have meant: "In 2004 a[ onetime] lockerroom attendant revealed...". The source is certainly the 2004 documentary on German public channel ZDF, which I mention with link in the edit inserted today.

- I leave it to someone else to re-insert these three sentences after correction. Rontombontom (talk) 12:36, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Play-offs
This article doesn't mention play-offs between equally ranked teams, as they just used points and didn't factor in goal difference. Turkey was 2nd and West Germany was 3rd in the group stage, and West Germany progressed after a play-off.
- Germany had beaten Turkey in the first game, and after German coach Herberger had sent in the backups to collect the expected loss against Hungary while Turkey outscored the helpless Koreans, they were tied for 2nd by points. That's why a playoff was needed, which the Germans won again with ease. -- Matthead discuß! O 06:25, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
