1930 World Cup Final Replay In The Clouds Now Complete Posted: 31 Aug 2010 01:20 PM PDT Though it may seem an occasion long since gone, yesterday brought forth a significant obit: the only player still remaining from the first World Cup final in 1930. Argentine Francisco Varallo passed away at the ripe young age of 100. That first World Cup final was more than 80 years ago, and 75 or so before the advent of YouTube. But through the miracle of technology and someone falling asleep in FIFA’s intellectual copyright division, we can get a grainy glimpse at the game, long before most of us were alive. And we’re only a few years away from the replay in heaven being broadcast on YouTube as well. |
