ANDREAS BREHME, WHO scored the winning goal for West Germany in the 1990 World Cup final, has died aged 63.
The defender scored from the penalty spot late on to give his country a 1-0 win over Argentina in Rome.
He played for Bayern Munich and Kaiserslautern, winning the Bundesliga with both and also lifted the Serie A title with Inter Milan.
Bayern said the former left-back will be remembered as a “very special person”.
