This month, we start with the heavy, even the very, very heavy with the King, the King, call him what you want, it is obviously Pelé . June 18, 1975, a few months after his first retirement, the Brazilian was acclaimed by the New York crowd for his first match with his new club, the New York Cosmos . Before leading them to the title a year later . Legend.

We jump forward in time and move on to the next decade. In 1987, more precisely, with a photo that was less mythical than aesthetic . Young people from the football school of the Gerogian club Dinamo Batumi practicing head juggling under the orders of their coach, a certain Levan Verulidze . Needless to say, heading is essential in football. It's not Cristiano Ronaldo who will say the opposite!


We continue with a memorable player, that every football fan must know: Jan Tomaszewski . This name means nothing to you ? And yet. He has a record that many envy. Indeed, the Pole is one of the only goalkeepers with Brad Friedel and Iker Casillas to have two penalties saved in the Football World Cup . As for the photo, it was taken on the pitch at Ruch Chorzow, a year before the 74 World Cup of his exploits, under the colors of LKS Lodz , a club whose jersey he would wear more than 150 times.



Do you know how many goals Liliam Thuram scored during her long career with the Blues? Answer: two ! In the space of 23 minutes. It was July 8, 1998 during the World Cup semi-final against Croatia (yes, them again!). In this photo, he has just scored the winning goal, the 2-1. We are in the 70th minute and he is about to make a celebratory gesture that will go down in history. About which he once declared: “ Some people think I wanted to do James Bond. I didn't say to myself, "Get on your knees." I did that, I don't know why, I did it. I was elsewhere. » You know the rest.


A legendary photo, a legendary atmosphere, a legendary match and legendary players. This is how to summarize this masterpiece. First leg of the 1989 UEFA Cup final between SSC Napoli and VfB Stuttgart. Needless to say in which stadium this scene takes place. And what about the match (2-1 victory for Naples; 3-3 return), punctuated by a goal from Maradona . The story goes that on that day Vesuvius itself shook.


Hope you find your happiness ! And whether this is the case or not, don't hesitate to follow us directly on Instagram where we highlight as often as possible a beautiful photo from the immense collection of our partner: the Icon Sport photographic agency .
All these prints will be available in the SO Boutique
from July 1 at 00:01.
