Jupp Heinkes (sp) was Borussia Monchengladbach Manager in the 80's I think he managed both times we played them*
Ulie Steilike was a player for Neucatel Xamax, who played v us, not sure if he won the world cup with West Germany.
*I only know this, because we were in Munich in March and I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking back on european games.

We played Bayern Munich in a friendly after winning the cup in 1994, Trapatoni was their manager, not sure if he's ever won the world cup.

Jupp Heynckes is a good shout Mr B.👏🏻
Uli Stielike never managed against us, and never won the World Cup with Germany anyway (runner-up).
Did have one hell of a career though.

Trapattoni won absolutely everything you can win in football.
Apart from the World Cup .

Tannadice friendly in the Summer of 1980.
Chelsea managed by Geoff Hurst.
Two future Utd players in the Chelsea side and one former Chelsea player in ours.
