ArabiaWeather - A sad year for German football so far. 40 days after the death of the legend Franz Beckenbauer, the death of German football legend and World Cup champion Andreas Brehme was announced on Tuesday.

The German Football Association announced on Tuesday the death of former German national team star Andreas Brehme, who scored a penalty kick to lead Germany to victory over Argentina in the 1990 World Cup final and its third title in the tournament, at the age of 63.

The attacking left-back, who specializes in set-pieces, became a legend in German football when his successful penalty kick gave Argentina a 1-0 victory over Diego Maradona's Argentina in the World Cup final in Rome, a kick that made Argentina and its legendary leader Maradona cry.

Brehme played for Kaiserslautern, Bayern Munich, Inter Milan and other clubs, before retiring in 1998. He played 86 international matches with the West German national team, scoring 8 goals, including the goal that everyone remembers.

Breimah is considered one of the most prominent players to occupy the left-back position in the world, and he is distinguished by his ability to play with both feet with the same quality.
