Hungary x Portugal 1966 WC (1.) - Eusébio vs. Flórián Albert

The Portugal national team with football legend Eusébio, "The Black Panther" -- comparable to the Brazilian Ronaldo in skills and style -- in a World Cup group stage match against Hungary with another Ballon d'Or-winner, Flórián Albert - A Beckenbauer-esque player but with a vein of a first-class center-forward. Nicknamed the "Császár", which means the same as "Kaiser". This fact, however, was not due to a reference to Beckenbauer but mere coincidence: Albert showcased a similar "out of your league gentleman" kind of attitude on field, similar to that of the well-known German legend's.
