Brazil Star Wows Them At Garforth

30th July, 2006

It really is like watching Brazil at Garforth Town these days, according to World Cup-winning legend Carlos Alberto.

The victorious 1970 captain, who scored one of the all-time great goals in the Mexico final, has followed compatriots Socrates and Careca in throwing his support behind the NCEL club owned by Brazilian Soccer Schools guru Simon Clifford.

Alberto, 62, coached the Miners on Tuesday and was in the dugout for yesterday's 3-1 defeat to Ossett Albion.

He told The Non-League Paper: "I've spent a beautiful week here, working with the Brazilian Soccer School kids and the Garforth players.

"I should have flown home on Friday, but wanted to stay and see that they have taken what I have coached into the match.

"There are differences between the English and Brazilian players, but I like the level I have seen over here.

"I have tried to pass on the experiences I have had in football, and they have impressed me greatly."
