[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)
[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.
