England vs Germany history

The root of the England vs Germany rivalry can be traced way back to the 1966 World Cup, where the Three Lions achieved success over their counterparts. The game was a highly controversial affair, with Ian Hurst scoring a controversial lead, eventually helping England seal the tie and the World Cup. However, what followed was a German dominance at the world stage, and as the Die Mannschaft have lifted four World Cups and three European Championships, compared to England's sole 1966 success. Over the years England and Germany have played some eventful knockout games, especially in the 1996 Euro, the 2002 World Cup and the 2010 World Cup.
