A brilliant game by Baggio and Futre (next in line). A young Figo had the worst hairstyle imaginable
and was playing as a CM.Just as promised
Not too often that you see a player run rings around a defense of Maldini-Vierchowod-Costacurta-Tassotti
.Lost count of the number of fouls he suffered and 3 Italians got booked thanks to him - Tassotti should probably have been sent off and Vierchowod should have gotten a yellow for hacking him down from a dangerous position too. It was more or less an one man crusade as he barely got much support - Couto was decent and a young Figo showed flashes of promise from midfield. The most remarkable thing was how he didn't falter or fade away after being hacked down repeatedly, and just kept running at the Italians.
Think @Šjor Bepo is a fan
Cant say im a fan, barely watched the guy but was one of the rare ones that used him in drafts.
34 years old but a proverbial rock at the back nonetheless. You could just see he had that something extra, which made him special. Remarkable reflexes for someone of that stature. Maradona was ridiculous despite being a tender 19 years though.
Next up - Figueroa vs Brazil

Must have mistaken you for someone else then. Barely features in drafts but he didn't realize his full potential so there's that. Was unstoppable on his day though.
Actually watched this before the Baggio one which is highly unusual for me. Impressive display particularly given that I think he was already more or less ravaged by injuries at that stage.Just as promised

Nice!
His performance against West Germany got repeatedly blocked on YouTube though, such a shame.
The commentator made a great point — Wilson marked Garrincha as well as anyone he had ever seen… Garrincha still steamrolled over England, scoring 2 & assisting Vava for third.

Heh, a header of all...
God i love this guy, pure class
Just a masterclass in defensive positioning and it took two long range goals to best the Chilean defense with Figueroa in impeccable form.
That clearance from the free kick around the one minute mark isn't something you see every day! Some magnificent defensive actions in there, and he tends to somehow look so composed even when it's proper last-ditch stuff.
Feck me - every bit as immaculate as his reputation suggests. That clearance is just in a different decision-making and execution ballpark, and no Carlos-style hashes made of the technically challenging clearances.
Yeah was quite an unbelievable bit of play that.
He wasn't flashy on the ball but ridiculously composed on it as he was off it.
That bit of defensive play at 3.35 was impressive enough but the composure to pick out that pass, which led to Chile almost scoring the goal was impressive. And that tackle too, had to slow it down to actual see if he actually nicked the ball or not.
If he had a cup of tea in his hand he wouldn't spill a drop.
Finally something worth watching.
Did they agree or is it only up until they review the appeal?
Anyway, nice!
review
screw you and screw Gazza for making me watch this friendly shit
The two of them always seemed to have a special understanding on the field with Baresi always looking for Baggio on the ball. Their chemistry in this match was off the charts though.
Cracking performance from Keane. Scoreline flattered to deceive Leeds, as we had the upper hand throughout the game, and despite Blanc having a good game on that day, the defense was a bit leaky.
finally something worth watching!
@Joga Bonito Great vid. Btw did Giggs actually play as an SS like the formation pic implied?
Just insane.
Another player that gets underrated in drafts is Aldair, very rare gets picked and its often R1 and then see ya later.
