The 1966 FIFA World Cup final was a historic football (soccer) match that took place on July 30, 1966, at Wembley Stadium in London, England. The final match of the 1966 World Cup is particularly famous for several reasons, including a controversial goal and England's triumph as the host nation.

Teams: The final was contested between England and West Germany. England was hosting the tournament for the first time.

Controversial Goal: One of the most iconic moments of the match occurred in the 101st minute of extra time when England's Geoff Hurst scored a goal to put his team ahead 2-1. The goal was controversial because it hit the crossbar and bounced down, with uncertainty about whether it had fully crossed the goal line. After consulting with the Soviet linesman Tofik Bakhramov, the Swiss referee Gottfried Dienst awarded the goal, which became known as the "Wembley Goal." This decision remains the subject of debate and controversy to this day.

Extra Time: The match went into extra time after the regulation 90 minutes ended in a 2-2 draw. Hurst's controversial goal in extra time was followed by another goal by Hurst, completing his hat-trick and making him the first and only player to score a hat-trick in a World Cup final.

Final Score: England won the 1966 World Cup final with a score of 4-2 after extra time. Hurst's three goals and one additional goal from Martin Peters secured England's victory. Helmut Haller and Wolfgang Weber scored the goals for West Germany.

Trophy Presentation: The captain of the England national team, Bobby Moore, received the Jules Rimet Trophy from Queen Elizabeth II. This marked England's first and, to date, only World Cup victory. England's victory was met with jubilation by the home crowd, and it remains a cherished moment in the country's football history.

The 1966 World Cup final is remembered not only for the footballing drama on the pitch but also for its cultural significance in England. The event played a significant role in popularizing football in the country and contributed to the sport's lasting importance in English culture. The debate over Geoff Hurst's controversial goal in the final continues to be a topic of discussion among football fans and historians.
