  Helmut Haller - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Helmut Haller (born July 21, 1939 in Augsburg, Germany) was a footballer who represented West Germany at three World Cups.
Haller was a playmaker and striker who made his international debut at age 19 in 1958.
Along with his second place medal, Haller also got the match ball from the game, though more than 30 years later he returned to England to present it to Geoff Hurst, who had scored a hat-trick in the game and was therefore by tradition considered to be entitled to own the ball.
