Former Portuguese footballer Eusebio has passed away, aged 71.
The Benfica legend was the top scorer in the 1966 World Cup and netted against eventual winners England in the semi-finals.
He won 10 league championships, five Portuguese cups and the European Cup in a 15-year spell with the club from 1960 to 1975, during which he was named the 1965 European Footballer of the Year.
The forward, widely considered one of the greatest players of all time, also played in America, Mexico and Mozambique - where he was born in 1942 when it was still a Portuguese colony - in a career in which he scored 733 times in 745 professional matches.
Eusebio retired in 1979, with his last game for Benfica coming four years earlier, and passed away at around 4.30am Sunday morning following a cardiac arrest.
