Oh gosh, I did not know that - thank you, very interesting stuff. The documentary I saw was years ago and maybe I misremembered it.
Sorry Pele!
It is particularly interesting because I have often thought that most top-club sides would beat most top international sides in a decent friendly match (mainly because of the time they have training and playing together) but this would contradict that theory.
I doubt we will ever see such games though these days - no time in the calendar plus insurance issues. Things were different back in the day: I still remember Kevin Keegan falling off a racing bike on 'Superstars' imagine City letting Haaland do something like that (we can but dream!).
