Eusebio: a red Benfica No.9 jersey worn in the European Cup quarter-final (1st leg) v Manchester United at Old Trafford 2nd February 1966, Long-sleeved, cloth club badge, plus additional cloth badge bearing the Portuguese national crest on the left sleeve, gained as a swap by Denis Law at the end of the game Manchester United won the first leg 3-2 with Denis Law scoring once, whilst the legendary Eusebio set up both the Benfica goals. The return leg in Portugal was the famous George Best 'El Beatle' match and arguably one of Manchester United's finest ever performances when they sensationally beat Benfica 5-1. Later in 1966 Eusebio was to return to England and became one of the shining lights of the 1966 World Cup finals, winning the 'golden boot' after scoring nine goals.
