England met Germany in the semi-final of the World Cup (Italia 90) 1990. The game ended 1-1 after Gary Lineker had equalised for England. Extra time brought no goals and so the game was decided on a penalty shoot out. Unfortunately Chris Waddle and Stuart Pearce both missed so West Germany went through. England had started the tournament quietly yet seemed to grow more confident as they progressed through to the semis. Despite the agony of defeat it was Englands best performance in the World Cup since winning the tournament in 1966.

Chris Waddle's Missed Penalty: A Heartbreaking Moment in World Cup History". In this iconic photo print, we are transported back to the intense semi-final clash between England and Germany during the 1990 World Cup. The tension is palpable as Chris Waddle steps up to take a crucial penalty kick that could have secured victory for his team. With emotions running high, hopes were pinned on Waddle's shoulders. However, fate had other plans. As the ball sails agonizingly over the crossbar, capturing this frozen moment of despair and disbelief on Waddle's face, it symbolizes not only an individual miss but also a collective heartbreak felt by an entire nation. The match itself was a rollercoaster ride of emotions for England fans. After Gary Lineker's equalizer brought hope in their hearts, extra time failed to produce any more goals. And so it came down to penalties – a cruel lottery that can make or break dreams. Ultimately, both Chris Waddle and Stuart Pearce missed their spot-kicks, sealing England's fate and allowing West Germany to progress further in the tournament. Despite this devastating loss, it marked a turning point for English football since their triumph in 1966. This print from Memory Lane Prints encapsulates not just the agony of defeat but also serves as a reminder of the passion and dedication displayed by these athletes on one unforgettable day in football history.
