UCLA Soccer- David Estrada

Posted under soccer stats

I uploaded this video in the summer of 07, mid-August just before returning for UCLA’s Pre-Season training. I was still healing from my fractured foot, I will be fine though… I did this video for my friends, family, and anyone who enjoys soccer tricks. I would say its an ok vid, nothing compared to the freestylers… Hope you enjoy it.

Football’s Greatest – Zico [Brazil]

Posted under current soccer

Arthur Antunes Coimbra, better known as Zico, is a Brazilian coach and former footballer. He is the current head coach of the Iraq national football team. Often called the “White Pelé”, he is commonly considered one of the most skilled finishers and one of the best passers ever and possibly the world’s best player of the early 80’s. He was also known as one of history’s greatest free kick specialists, able to bend the ball with pace. The gifted midfielder was named by Pelé as one of the top 125 greatest living footballers in March 2004. Also according to Pelé, generally considered the best footballer ever, “throughout the years, the one player that came closest to me was Zico”

Zico scored 52 goals in 72 international matches for Brazil, and represented them in the 1978, 1982 and 1986 World Cups. They did not win any of those tournaments, even though the 1982 squad is considered one of the greatest Brazilian national squads ever. Zico is often considered one of the best players in football history not to have been on a World Cup winning squad. He was chosen 1981 and 1983 Player of the Year.
