The Legacy

Ernst Happel managed the Netherlands for the 1978 World Cup in Argentina. This Adidas kit accompanied a squad that reached a second consecutive tournament final despite the absence of Johan Cruyff. Ruud Krol anchored the defence, while Rob Rensenbrink and Johnny Rep provided the primary attacking threat. Arie Haan famously scored from distance against Italy to secure the team's passage to the final. Although they lost to the hosts, the team maintained their technical reputation on the world stage.
