ZICO : The Movie
I saw some footage on a Brazilian Sports show on Globo TV INternational and basicly its a movie that mixes real footage (goals, plays) with some acted scenes, almost a documentary. The soccer footage is awesome showing Zico shine for Flamengo in the 80's with many of his historic and beautiful goals and passes.
I hope it makes its way to the US at least on DVD through Internet purchase. A HUGE MUST if you can see it.
Keep in mind most Brazilian consider Zico a greater player than Maradona, Zico just failed to win a World Cup, but otherwise Zico was extraordinary.
I couldn't agree more.
Zico will always have a place in Japanese fans' hearts. He is a big reason why Japan came from pretty much nothing in 1990 to a pretty decent team in 2002. Not only was he a great player, he also has an amazing eye for talent.
...And he was counselor for Zagallo and Parreira in 94.
Boy, I remember Rivelino playing for Fluminense, and Zico for Flamengo. FlaxFlus at those times were real classics, and the Maracana was always full.
If most Brazilians consider Zico a better player than Maradona than I guess they consider him a better player than Pele. Because in my opinion Maradona was a better player than Pele.
Consider whatever you want. That doesn't mean that it is true. Pele was the greatest player to ever enter the pitch. Zico was indeed better than Maradona, but unfortunately he could not win the cup in 82, and in 86 his knee was too bad to play. Zico was the most amazing player with the ball. Garrincha was better than Maradona too.
Let's not turn this into YET ANOTHER Pele vs.
Maradona thread, shall we? :rolleyes:I couldn't agree more.

I also would love to see the movie.

Actually, many Brazilians consider Garrincha superior to Pele and Maradona...
