Garrincha

Garrincha, 'The Joy of the People', is considered the greatest dribbler in football history. Born in Pau Grande, Rio de Janeiro, with twisted legs due to a congenital disease, Garrincha turned his disability into an advantage, creating dribbles impossible to anticipate. Two-time World Champion with Brazil in 1958 and 1962, he was the great hero of the 1962 World Cup, when Pelé was injured. He played practically his entire career at Botafogo and is considered one of the greatest natural talents football has ever seen.
