Unforgettable World Cup Moments: Carlos Alberto’s wondergoal vs Italy at Mexico 70

Posted on

There are some moments that defy understanding and societal expectations. During these moments, time stills. The impossible becomes possible. Ronaldinho, in his prime was given a standing ovation at the Bernabeu. That moment was proof that the tribalism that comes with one of the biggest derbies in the world could be overcome. Carlos Alberto’s goal in the World Cup final is one of the greatest goals to grace the World Cup. In that moment, football became poetry.

Pace + Power + Skill + Great hold up play + Bombing full backs + Vision

So much for the oldies not being any good.
