Garrincha's 1962 World Cup final shirt, a match-worn Brazil No.7 jersey, damages Manoel Francisco dos Santos (1933-1983), known by his nickname “Garrincha” (Little Bird), was an outstanding Brazilian right winger and influential member of the 1958 and 1962 World Cup winning teams. Garrincha was the outstanding player of the 1962 World Cup, excelling particularly in the matches against England and the hosts Chile scoring four goals in these two games, including a stunning ‘banana shot’ against England. Memorably in the Brazil v Spain match, and without the injured Pele, Brazil found themselves a goal down at half-time. After Amarildo had scored the equalizer, and with five minutes remaining, Garrincha took the ball on the right flank, dribbled past a defender and paused. Then he dribbled the same man and another defender before crossing the ball for Amarildo’s second goal to win the match. After Brazil’s 3-1 win in the 1962 World Cup final against Czechoslovakia Garrincha was voted Player of the Tournament. Garrincha was born in Pau Grande, a district of Mage, in the state of Rio de Janeiro. He had several birth defects including a deformed spin, a right leg that bent inwards and his left leg six centimetres shorter and curved outwards. Amazingly, this did not impede his powers to play football at the very highest level and he has been described as the best dribbler in football history. Sadly the great successes he enjoyed on the football pitch were in marked contrast to his turbulent personal life. Garrincha died aged 49 of cirrhosis of the liver, following a series of financial and marital problems.
