1978 sees Argentina lift the World Cup.

The 1978 World Cup was very much a blue and white affair.

Argentina, 48 years after appearing in the tournament’s first Final, became hosts and made a clean sweep of honours; lifting the cup for the first time, producing the tournament’s top scorer in Mario Kempes, with six goals, and even managing to pick up the FIFA Fair Play Award.

Some fervent home support saw a talented squad of players, including Kempes, Ossie Ardilles and Daniel Passarella, break Dutch hearts in the Final as they ran out 3-1 winners, leaving the Netherlands to rue their second consecutive Final defeat.
