This is a sad day for world football...Eusébio da Silva Ferreira has passed away this very day. (01/05/2014)

He was an example for every aspiring footballer and professional player. His skills as a player were unmatched during his time, his presence on the pitch was immediately noticeable and the impact he had in the history of S.L.B football clup, and the sport in general, is undeniable. His stamina was through the roof, his positioning and free playing style was second to none and he had, quite possibly, the greatest shot power and accuracy this sport has ever seen.

I remember when I was a kid and loved playing football with my friends, my dad had a barely functional VCR and me and a couple of friends used to watch taped Eusébio games my dad had, to try and imitate his play to kick everyone's ass at school. I will never forget my first memories of watching and learning from Eusébio games at S.L.B and our national team. He was my biggest inspiration when I was a kid, and when I loved to play as a 9/9.5.

A true legend of world football, and a great person. It's tough to even say this, but rest in peace Eusébio da Silva Ferreira. The greatest portuguese player in history!
