Great moments in World Cup history #1

In just a few months, we will all be watching the World Cup finals from South Africa. In preparation for this important event, Ape Canyon News Service will be featuring some of the most exciting moments from past World Cups.

Our first installment is from the group stage of the 1990 World Cup held in Italy. Germany were already through to the next round, but Colombia needed a win or tie to advance. Germany were leading late in the match when Freddy Rincon scored one of my all-time favorite goals in stoppage time. Later that day, I created a fish stew in his honor and called it Guisado para Freddy Rincon. I seem to recall sending the recipe to him care of the Colombian Embassy in Washington, DC. I am not sure, however, if he ever received it.
