Together with Klinsmann, they played for Inter Milan ... for the record, Klinsmann dun take penalties.

i knew mattaeus was the designated penalty taker then. but judging from brehme's perfect (in my view lah) penalty kick, i felt that the german coach wanted to throw argie's goalie (cant spell his name right and third choice somemore) off cos he was damn adept at saving penalties. argentina must have studied mattaeus and knew that he always blast the spot kick... so in my view, i felt that brehme was actually the internal penalty taker.
and i did see brehme taking penalties for inter, again if i didnt remember wrongly. u see, i depend on memory, unlike bro rahl who keeps a record.
