I remember first coming to Germany in 1988, going out for a stroll in a suburb of Frankfurt on a Saturday afternoon and finding it a near-deserted ghost town, not even any traffic on the streets.

Then I ducked into a bar and found that the big Germany-Holland World Cup match was underway (Which the Dutch won)

You sure it was a World Cup game? World Cup is played every four years: 1982, 1986, 1990 …
