Jairzinho

Jairzinho is a former Brazilian striker known for his speed, strength and penetration from the right wing. He stood out at Botafogo and the Brazil national team, with whom he won the 1970 World Cup. He scored in every match for Brazil at that tournament. He combined dribbling with off-the-ball runs towards goal, being dangerous both in direct duels and when finishing team moves.
