George Best

    Tento severoirský fotbalista byl legendou Manchesteru United, proslulý svou rychlostí, rovnováhou a schopností obejít obránce. Jeho herní styl kombinoval akceleraci a dvounohost s gólovými schopnostmi. Stal se symbolem éry, kdy fotbal začal přitahovat masovou pozornost, ale jeho extravagantní životní styl a boj s alkoholismem zkrátily jeho kariéru a ovlivnily jeho zdraví. Jeho odkaz přetrvává díky mimořádnému talentu, který z něj učinil jednu z nejvíce obdivovaných postav fotbalové historie, ztělesňující jak genialitu na hřišti, tak tragédii mimo něj.
