    Franz Beckenbauer: Der Kaiser
  • fce784a19d20a00376af6db624374483.jpg


    Franz Beckenbauer (1965-1977, 1984-90)
    Player

    Franz Beckenbauer startred his long international career at the age of 20 for the side of West Germany, in a qualifying game against Sweden. It didn't take long for him to earn a spot in the Nations League lineup, starting with a victory over Spain 1-0 in Munich during the 1965-66 edition. However, it is likely that Beckenbauer would want to forget his second game. Indeed, it is he who was partly responsible for Spain advancing in the return leg, provoking a penalty with an irregular tackle on Suarez which Gento would score to make it 2-0. Despite this, Beckenbauer would keep his starting spot thanks to an incredible World Cup, which would cement him as one of the key pieces of the Mannschaft during the next years.
    And with good reason. During his second edition, the Round of 16 matches against Scotland would prove that Beckenbauer had what it took to be a world-class defender, shutting down Denis Law and enabling his squad to make it to Quarters, where he'd take his revenge against Spain, putting on a decent performance, despite the real heroes being on the offensive side. Once more though, he would fall short in the Semi-Finals against a team in the Iberian Peninsula, being unable to defend against Eusebio despite his and his defensive line's efforts. After a 4-1 loss, West Germany didn't have much to play for during the return leg, where Beckenbauer scored the second goal for the Mannschaft, after 88 minutes, too late to make a difference.
    During the next edition, Beckenbauer would only play a single game, against Czechoslovakia, as a substitute, recovering from an injury he'd previously had, and with coach Helmut Schon fixed on the World Cup qualifiers later in Summer, no risks were taken to preserve his health. He would however, be part of the squad facing off against East Germany, in the first confrontation between the two countries, of which West Germany would end up winners. Beckenbauer would go on to score his second goal during the next game, a home game against the Soviet Union, which would end up being the only goal of the game. He would also be a key player during the Mannschaft's triumph over England in Wembley, successfully shutting down Francis Lee, safe for a late goal which would not have any incidence on the game. Overshadowed by Gordon Banks and Gerd Muller's performances, Beckenbauer would have his great Nations League performance in the final against Brazil as he successfully shut down the Selecao's offensives, notably Jairzinho and Pele's, after an epic game where the Mannschaft were considered heavy underdogs.

    Contrarily to the World Cup where Beckenbauer played a central role, the 1970 edition would see Beckenbauer glide through without making too many waves. The West German press would qualify his overall performance as "average" despite the Mannschaft reaching the final. A forgettable performance, yes, but not a catastrophic one, as the defender didn't make any game-ending mistakes.
    After a 1970 World Cup full of promises though, the Mannschaft would sink against Romania less than six months later. The West German press would completely annihilate the players, which forced Schon to rearrange the squad. This would end up benefitting Beckenbauer, who took up the role of captain of the Mannschaft, which he would keep until his last cap.
    His first game would be a 3-0 win over Belgium in the Round of 16, where West Germany wouldn't tremble whatsoever. The next game would prove Beckenbauer's leadership skills, though. After an initial defeat to Argentina, the defender would rally the troops to force a victory in the Quarter-Finals over the Albiceleste, showing an incredible performance the West German press would dub "Die Nacht der Kaiser" ("The Emperor's Night"), allowing his squad to make it to the next stage, where they'd force another bad situation, defeating Sweden, where the captain would score two goals, including a penalty, the only one he'd take in the Nations League. From there, the Mannschaft would go on to win the tournament, defeating England after extra time, giving Beckenbauer a second international title, with a third coming his way in Summer with the European Championship win, as well as that year's Ballon d'Or.

    The next year, the Mannschaft wouldn't be able to defend its title. After an initial win over Portugal, they would go on to face the Netherlands, in full swing as they entered their golden age, with the epic return leg seeing the Dutch winning and advancing to the Semi-finals. With the 1974 final taking place in Munich, the pressure was on him and the Mannschaft to perform. This would culminate in the Mannschaft getting their revenge over the Netherlands, with Beckenbauer scoring the first of the two German goals of the return leg, allowing his team to make it to the next round, where they would defeat Brazil in a quite forgettable game. This would be Beckenbauer's third title, with the World Cup following suit that Summer.

    Der Kaiser in action against the Netherlands

    "Der Kaiser" is at the height of his career, and even a forgettable 1975 run that culminated in another defeat to Romania, wouldn't be able to stain his career path. Beckenbauer continued to be the Mannschaft's captain after this new debacle, scoring the first German goal of their new Nations League run, starting against the Soviet Union. The next confrontations, against Poland, would once more prove how precious Beckenbauer was to the Mannschaft, as he single-handedly shut down most Polish offensives to make it to the next round against Argentina. This obstacle wouldn't be as resilient as in 1972, as the Germans made it to the final easily. There, Beckenbauer would come close to scoring in the final but saw his header fly off the right post and into the stands of the Crvena Zvezda Stadium, although this wouldn't matter as the Mannschaft would win this title as well.
    Franz Beckenbauer considered retiring on this title and his subsequent Ballon d'Or, but ended up agreeing to sign for one more season, with his transfer to the New York Cosmos only coming into effect in May of 1977. He would score his 7th and final goal in the Nations League against Portugal in the Round of 16. Led by Beckenbauer, the new German generation would make the run to the final, where Lato and Deyna would get their revenge, scoring their second Nations League victory. This would be Beckenbauer's last game under German colours, having born them 156 times, and having scored 21 times during the course of his long international career.

    Coach

    After the previous coach, Jupp Derwall, completely failed at his task during the 1984 European Championship, Beckenbauer was called to take control of the Mannschaft as a Coach, only a year after the end of his professional career. Things wouldn't start off that well for him, as the Mannschaft would get rinced in the Round of 16 of the Nations League by Argentina, with a 6-1 loss in Buenos Aires. This nearly sent Beckenbauer packing as soon as he arrived, but with the 1986 World Cup coming, the DFB didn't sack him just yet. And the next Nations League would prove them right. Beckenbauer completely rebranded the Mannschaft, putting in back on track, as they swept Mexico, Spain, France and finally Denmark to win the title, his first as a coach. With a finals performance during the World Cup, this would set Beckenbauer in good standing with the German public, even with their early exit the following year against Argentina, or their defeat to the Soviet Union, in 1988.
    Franz Beckenbauer continued to work towards the 1990 World Cup, using the Nations League as a means to test out new compositions for the big event, which came closer and closer. In 1989, Beckenbauer would lead his team to a Semi-Final finish where he would be knocked out by a Thijs Libregts-led Netherlands. The following year, Beckenbauer would fall to Italy, but he would end his national career on a World Cup victory later that year, before leaving for Marseille, having won a Nations League title as both player and coach.
