That pic is Zico mate? Zico was my first hero.

Eder must be his double then?

Thought it was Eder myself, might be wrong though, will have to check.

Same age as you Tolmie, loved that World Cup, loved Brazil in the group stages. And then because of my early love for the underdog, loved Italy beating them - which is something as the years have gone on I've come to regret, as that Brazil team deserved the title in so many ways.

Wanna bet? ;)

Eder's doppelganger!!
 
No. The Edelweiss flower was, and to some extent, still is important in Germany. The song was written by two Americans.

I didn't know if your father merely liked the song or had an affinity for the flower and the meaning the German people attach to it and therefore enjoyed the song also.
Ah right, I had assumed Austrian because of the film.

But no he wasn’t German just liked the song.
 
Is there anyone else who is interested in Gvaridol because I just don’t see chelsea going for him when they have a upcoming left footed cb in colwill who is doing well at Brighton and I don’t think Liverpool will spend close to £100 m on a defender when their midfield is where they should put all of their money

Eder is bottom right, with the ball at his feet and Zico is next to him. Similar they look, but the earlier picture is definitely Eder.
That is the ultimate national football team kit of all time, just perfection. That was my first world cup in 82 and fell in love with that Brazil side. Zico to this day is one of my all time greats and remember rushing home from primary school to watch the Italy game they lost 3-2 and being so upset.
 
For Zico I give you Sócrates, my word what a magnificent player, he made the game look so easy.

I have never seen such a big guy (6'4" ) look so elegant.

Wonderful player and a doctor as well?

Brazil only needed the draw against Italy but just kept piling forward and letting that match-fixer steal the headlines.

Same reason I supported Germany in the final!
