Not just any old 'legend'. Watched this match live in TV aged 10. Watch from 5 mins in. "oh my word.... Have you ever seen anything like that" (David Coleman) just about sums up Eusebio.
I think it has to be Ronaldo. Portugal won their only major international trophy with ronaldo captaining their team. Sadly he couldn't play in the final but without ronaldo, Portugal would've lost in the group stages. Ronaldo's hard earned draws and patricio is what got them to the final.
@@bruv4934 It's a team game though. Sometimes great players that deserve to win big trophies don't manage to because of the bad luck of the day. Cruyff for Holland in 74, Zico for Brazil in 82 and Puskas for Hungary in 54 are examples.
@@Bill-Butcher Yeah the only difference is Holland and brazil were the best nations in the world in their time. Portugal were lucky to make through the group stages. They drew every single game, there wasn't any worldclass players except for ronaldo and pepe.
Yes I agree all these dumb people try to say the fraud Pele is the best ever. But alot of his official goals were against non pro players in exhibition matches. They even had a match against the Brazilian coast guard and these games counted towards his official goal to game ratio. Eusebio is 10 times better than Pele fraud.
@@sylasmalone6126 even eusebio said hinself that pele was better than him,pele was injured in this match because a player tackle him with the intent to injure,eusebio was angry and yelled after that player,pele scored more than 150 of his official goals against european team,77 goals with brazil,the goal that you are talking about would make him scored more than 1100 goals but without them he scored a bit more than 760 goals,expert put pelé first,so if you think its kurupt they would have never put a black man greatest of all time
Idiot, when eusébio won a world cup at 17? Pele not only scored a lot of goals, but managed to stand out as a complete player. Pele created dribbles that are made today, Pele with 1.71 cm in height, jumped headfirst the height that Cristiano Ronaldo jumps today. Pele kicked with both legs, scored goals in every way. Just search to find out what he innovated in football. Pelé received 7 Ballons d'Or, including one from Eusébio, in a historic review by France Football magazine. If you research, you can stop talking shit, you will stop saying that all his games were friendly against the Brazilian coast guard team. You are crazy and idiotic to say that Pele only played and scored more than a thousand goals against the Brazilian Coast Guard soccer team. You asshole.
Nope he is the best. It is shameful in 60's thre was no group stages in Champions LEague. This is why modern football is statisticaly overrate but by his ratio goals per game there will never be another Poortogese player like him. He has more goals in one World Cup than Figo and Cristiano in all put together.
@@David20092 Yes. Eusebio has 9 Goals in 1 World Cup. Ronaldo has 7 Goals in 4 World Cup. But still Ronaldo is the Best Portuguese Footballer of all time. Many of people today didn't see Football back in 60's, 70's and 80's.
This is the bit I was looking for - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uxzxG9xI0xI.html - my friend and I have started saying this whenever we see anything brilliant, any form of art...
he created so many chances.. portugal was a "one man team", in this video you can see him running all over the pitch. in 2014 Di Stefano says that for him Eusebio will always be the greatest of all time. benfica played 5 champions leagues finals in the 60s, do you know any other footballer capable of doing that with benfica?
@@musicanaocomercial2618 let him talk,he is one of those who wanna says that player back then didn't have any skills,like pele,eusebio cruyff,puskas or di stefano shouldn't be greatest,he is a dumb fuck
