Stahl Eissenhüttenstadt and BSG Aktivist Schwarze Pumpe were disqualified 
from the championship, because of political reasons. The decision in German:
"...Im Gegensatz zu der sich anbahnenden positiven Entwicklungen haben die 
Funktionäre "..." bewusst das Status des DTSB, die Beschlüsse und Maßnahmen 
des IV. Verbandstages der DDR sowie Satzungen und die Spielordnung des DFV der 
DDR verletzt. Aus örtlichen, egoistischen Gründen wurden ... unter grober 
Verletzung der Prinzipien unserer sozialistischen Gesellschaft und unserer 
sozialistischen Sportorganisation den Spielern und Fünktionären 
ungerechtfertige materielle Vorteile gegenüber den andern Fussballsektionen 
verschafft...
Es wurden finanzielle Mittel verschiedener Fonds der Betriebe unberechtigt
für sportliche Zwecke verausgabt.
Es wurden gesetzliche Arbeitszeitreglungen gröblich mißachtet..."

Holland the Cup

 

Cup: Ajax - Sparta 2-2 (aet)

 rep Ajax                  - Sparta                2-1

Sparta (Rotterdam) tried hard and lost only in the replay by a single goal – considering the strenght of Ajax, it was admirable effort.

Ajax prevailed with great difficulties. Standing from left: Sondergard, Rijnders, Stuy, Suurbier, Krol, Suurendonk. Front row: Keizer, Swart, Vasovic, Cruijff, van Dijk

This is not the team playing at the Cup final, but wonderful photo of Ajax in blue.

Ajax won their 6^th Cup in 1971 and second consecutive one,but it was difficult victory, trailing twice in the first match, and opening the scores with quastionable penalty in the replay. Rinus Mischels was leaving, a few regulars were leaving, but the great squad was already at hand and going to win... everything. No need even to name the players – almost all of them are well known to young and old.
