Carlos Alberto: Brazil soccer hero of 1970 World
Cup dies at age 72
(CNN) Carlos Alberto, the man who captained the
Brazil team often described as soccer's greatest ever
to victory at the 1970 World Cup, died Tuesday at
age 72. FIFA, world football's governing body,
confirmed his death on its website. A short statement
said: "It is with tremendous sadness that FIFA has
learned that Carlos Alberto Torres died at the age of
72 on Tuesday 25 October 2016." Alberto scored one
of the most memorable goals in World Cup history in
the final as his side beat Italy 4-1 in Mexico City. He
rampaged forward from right-back to put the seal on
victory, hammering home the most emphatic of
finishes after a stunning move involving eight players
including Tostao and Pele, who rolled the ball to him.
Then aged 25, Alberto became the youngest-ever
World Cup-winning captain having already skippered
Santos, his club at the time. He had been appointed
two years before the tournament and in an interview
with FIFA recalled: "I was elevated to the captaincy of
a team regarded at the time as the best in Brazil, and
by many as the best in the world. "It included world
champions like Pele, Coutinho, Pepe, Gilmar and
Mauro. "There's no doubt that being the Santos
skipper led to me getting the Selecao armband. I'm very proud still to be the youngest captain of a World
Cup-winning team."
Dazzling performance
Alberto won 53 caps for Brazil, scoring eight goals,
but it is for his dazzling 1970 performance that he is
best remembered. He was the last captain to lift the
Jules Rimet trophy, which passed into Brazil's
possession after what was their third World Cup win.
He missed the 1974 tournament with a knee injury
but played for Brazil for a further three years before
quitting international football in 1977. Alberto's
achievements saw him named in the World Team of
the 20th Century in 1998, while FIFA included him on
its list of the greatest 100 living players in 2004.
"Carlos Alberto is an icon of world football," Brazilian
sports journalist Emerson Vicente told CNN. "Besides
being a great technical player, he was one of the first
defensive players to play in attack with the same
efficiency. The fourth goal for Brazil in the 1970 final
shows that. Read: Carlos Alberto on the decline of
Brazilian football "His was a well-respected voice,
and as a commentator he was a critic of the current
state of Brazilian football." Santos will hold three days
of official mourning for Alberto, saying in a statement:
"Santos FC is saddened by the death of Carlos
Alberto, an idol."
Outstanding defender
Alberto started his club career with Fluminese,
establishing himself as an outstanding defender
whose superb tackling, ability to break forward and
instinctive reading of the game quickly attracted
acclaim. In 1966 he joined Pele at Santos, moving
briefly to Botafogo in 1971 but returning to Santos
later that year and staying until 1974. He rejoined
Fluminese the same year at the end of a domestic
career in which he was a Brazilian Championship
winner in both 1965 and 1968. He was to be reunited
with Pele again in 1977 when both starred for New
York Cosmos, becoming a title-winner in 1997 and
1978 before spending a year at California Surf in
1981 and then rejoining Cosmos, where he retired as
a player in 1982. In a tweet, the Cosmos said: "We're
deeply saddened by the loss of Carlos Alberto, a
legendary player and wonderful person. He'll always
remain part of the Cosmos family." Alberto coached
clubs including Flamengo and Corinthians after
calling time on his playing days and also coached in
international football, most recently with Azerbaijan.
