Obviously we have to allow for improvements in fitness but I think it might be a toss-up between 1986 and 1990, weighting Argentina's decline between the two tournaments against West Germany's improvements. Italy and France in 2006 could be very dull but were undoubtedly solid, as were Brazil and Italy in 1994.
If it's down to which teams supplied the lowest entertainment, as in no great matches in either team's run, I'm not sure; maybe 1998 was a bit dull in that respect because France and Brazil were destined for the final from quite early on. No real suspense until Ronaldo's meltdown.
