		But even the 'Battle of Berne' could not match the violence of the Chile - Italy clash in 1962.

		It was so bad that it brought back memories of the Brazil versus Hungary shoot-out in Berne in 1954 and the England/ Argentina clash in London in 1966.
		After the match, Brazil's Pinheiro was struck in the face as he entered the dressing room by a bottle reportedly thrown by Hungary's ace forward Ferenc Puskas and all hell broke loose as the Brazilian team attacked the Hungarian team in their own dressing room.

		Unfortunately for the English it was one of their own that was to do the damage, as Jimmy Dickinson added his name to the Belgian scorers misplacing a header past Merrick in the English goal for their opponent's fourth and the last goal of the game, with the scores regaining parity at four-all.
		With the scalps of the two South American giants also under their scalp, not a single person in the Wankdorf Stadium in Berne was in the least surprised when within the first eight minutes of the match Hungary had stormed to a two-nil lead with goals from Puskás and Czibor.
		Prior to the start of the game it had looked unlikely that Puskás would be able to play following an injury to his ankle, but he had insisted upon playing, mindful that in all probability he would be the player to eventually lift the trophy.
