RIP Eusebio


Recommended Posts

RIP and farewell to one of the greatest footballers of all time. A true giant and ambassador of the game and a good person. 733 goals in 745 matches and changed the nature of the game with his attacking style of play. My father met him after a friendly game in Cyprus in '63. At the time the pitch was clay. After they introduced Eusebio at half-time to chants from the stands he wore his boots for about five minutes then took them off and played barefooted.....and went on to score four goals.
