The captain of Brazil’s 1970 World Cup-winning side, Carlos Alberto has died aged 72.

The Brazil legend died in Rio de Janeiro following a heart attack.

Alberto scored one of the greatest goals in World Cup history in the 1970 final against Italy, rounding off a sublime team move with a powerful low finish.

Right-back Alberto was capped 53 times by Brazil and won domestic titles with Fluminense and Santos, for whom he made more than 400 appearances.
