Uwe Seeler, losing captain in the World Cup final against England, dies aged 85
German great Uwe Seeler has died at the age of 85.
Seeler scored 43 goals in 72 games to make him Germany’s seventh greatest goalscorer and played in four World Cups – 1958, 1962, 1966, and 1970.
He became the first player to score in four World Cups, beating Pele by only a few minutes, and spent his entire 19-year club career at Hamburg, where he scored over 404 goals in 476 league games.
Rest in peace, Uwe Seeler
