My guess is... Joel Bats.

Looks like a goalie, and he has the same hair.

Luigi Di Biagio falls to the ground and breaks down into tears as his penalty kick rattled the crossbar and knocked Italy out of World Cup 1998.

2 years later, Di Biagio gets revenge and scores the first penalty-kick in Italy's shootout victory vs. Holland.

This has got to be one of my favorites although I'm not a gunner, look at the face and image the result and it's you in the picture, fantastic Charlie George.

This is how one club, Bolton I think, used to practice their shotting in the 1950s.

West Brom training in the 50s, they were the first club to wear traning gear designed for the purpose.

If there was a better team ever in the history of football I defy you to tell me. Seriously you've got 4 or 5 of the greatest players of ALL time, not just the best AT the time in their starting 11. Pele and Rivelino are in the top 5 players of all time and I'd say Carlos Alberto and Jairzinho are in the top 15 too.

The inventor of that elastico move Ronaldinho so often does. Lmao at the expression on the defenders face as Roberto completely blitzes him.

You would be hard pushed to call them the best ever from their own country.

The 58 vintage.

They were awesome too but not as good in my opinion. The late 70's/early 80's team led by Socrates was out of this world, but never won the world cup due to inexplicable reasons.

[Gregoriak]

The '58 team's defense was superior to the 1970 team. Also, 1970 had one of the worst goalies ever. But the 1970 team was 'awesome' from start to finish, unlike the 1958 team.

Carlos Alberto and Jairzinho hardly rate among the top 15 players of all time. And Rivelino definitely is not among the top 5 players of all time.
