NEITHER CRISTIANO NOR RONALDO NOR ZIDANE NOR ROBERTO CARLOS: Cafu chose the most complicated rival of his entire career

With a career of more than a decade in the elite at both club and national level, the legendary Cafu faced some of the greatest players of all time. However, there are a couple that have stood out in a special way above the rest.

First, a few months ago in a talk with the official FIFA media, he identified Ronaldinho as the most unpredictable opponent he faced: “Harder rival to score? Ronaldinho Gaucho. It was very unpredictable. He could do things that you couldn’t even imagine. It was almost unremarkable. ”

And now, in its passage through Libero from TyC Sports, the two-time world champion recalled and highlighted another legend. When asked to mention the rival that cost him the most to score, he spoke of Diego Armando Maradona: “What was the rival that cost me the most to score? Maradona… I played that friendly between Sao Paulo and Sevilla at Morumbi and Maradona was on my side. Maradona was the most difficult ”.

You have to be really different to make suffer what, for many, is the best right-back in history. What about Ronaldinho and The Diego it was always special. And Cafu, after competing with them, confirmed it.


Undefeated data. Diego Armando Maradona registered 5 goals and 5 assists in the 7 games he played in the 1986 World Cup. It was his Cup with Argentina.


Did you know..? Napoli has won 2 Serie A titles in its entire history. On both occasions they had Diego Maradona being the team leader.
