Argie Bargie - Iconic print, signed by George Cohen



England's quarter-final victory over Argentina in the 1966 World Cup finals was one of the most brutal and ill-tempered in the long history of the tournament and prompted an outraged Sir Alf Ramsey to label the South Americans as 'animals' after the final whistle.

The match was eventually settled by a Geoff Hurst header from Martin Peters' pinpoint cross but the clash will forever be remembered for the bad blood between the two sides at Wembley and the sending-off of Argentinean captain Antonio Rattin.

German referee Rudolf Kreitlein was subjected to constant abuse from the Argentineans, and Rattin in particular, and after one foul too many in the second-half, the visitors' captain was shown a red card. Rattin refused to leave the field for a full 10 minutes as he remonstrated with Kreitlein and when the game finally restarted, the atmosphere was on a knife edge.

Although England won the game to progress to the semi-finals, Ramsey was so disgusted by what he perceived as Argentina's lack of sportsmanship that he refused to allow his players to swap shirts after the final whistle and described how some of "the behaviour of some players in this competition reminds me of animals.

Own a piece of sporting history

England's 1-0 win over Argentina in the quarter-final of the 1966 World Cup has become infamous for its bad blood and this iconic print shows manager Alf Ramsey refusing to let George Cohen swap shirts with one of the Argentinean players.

The image shows Cohen being hauled away by Ramsey and is a stunning piece of World Cup memorabilia, personally signed Cohen.

Each print is issued with a certificate of authenticity signed by our managing director.
