Muller scored 68 goals in 62 games for West Germany, coming into the fringes of the
team during the World Cup in 1966 and retiring from international in July 1974 after
scoring the winning goal in the World Cup final at his home stadium in Munich.
During his peak years in the late sixties to mid seventies, he was top scorer
in West Germany seven times and held the title twice for all or Europe.Yet the
domestic stage was not the only place that Muller would devastate the opposition with his
head down, go for goal, no frills approach. The records shows that his 66 goals
in his 74 appearances in European cup competitions is also a record, bearing in mind
that in those days all the competitions were on a knock out basis only. Germany
lost to Italy in the semi finals by won 4-3 after extra time, tn with -
Muller scoring a further two goals.Muller's four goals in 1974 added to the ten that
he scored at the 1970 finals made for a record that stood for 32 years
when it was eventually broken by Ronaldo of Brazil. Muller joined Bayern Munich as an
18-year old in 1964 along with two other bastions of the side and his career,
Kaiser Franz Beckenbauer and legendary goalkeeper Sepp Maier. Muller was a rare phenomenon of a
player, very short and very strong with a low center of gravity yet capable of
leaping like a salmon to head balls into the net with amazing power. Muller was
also in 1972 European Championship winning team scoring two typical poacher's goals against Russia in
the final.After Bayern Munich won their third successive European Cup in 1976, Muller began to
wind down his career in West Germany and like a few chaussures puma other soccer legends went
off to ply his trade in North America, where he finally hung up his small
but powerful boots. What better way to end the international career of a soccer legend
His best World Cup was probably in Mexico 1970. This trio was to form the
backbone of Bayern Munich and the West German national team that were to go to
great things in the early to mid seventies.At that time, Bayern were in the German
equivalent of the second division, however Muller's scoring prowess soon lead them to first division
and four German Championship four times as well as taking the German Cup four times.
His 10 goals in 6 matches included successive hat-tricks against Bulgaria and Peru, earning him
the Golden Boot award as top scorer, in the same season that he was voted
European Player of the Year. During Bayern's golden era Beckenbauer the perennial captain lifted the
European Champions' Cup three times, the Intercontinental Cup once, and the European Cup Winners' Cup
once.Unlike many other star players of now and then, Muller's goal scoring efforts did not
dry up when he donned the black and white soccer uniform of the West German
National team. His goal scoring record in the Bundesliga is never likely to be beaten-
365 goals in 427 Bundesliga matches for Bayern Munich, more than 90 goals more than
the nearest contender. Some of Gerd Muller 's scoring statistics at domestic club level simply
defy the imagination, such as 40 goals in season 1971-72 which is still a record
as well as scoring 68 goals in just 62 German Cup games. The impact of
this supreme goal poacher on the World soccer stage, in these golden years will never
be forgotten.Browse through Soccer Uniforms extensive collection of soccer kits..
