That foul was so brutal the defender lost his shoe!
Would have been an aggravated assault charge in today's game.
It's really amazing how violent the game used to be. There's compilation vids of fouls on Maradona and Pele that just leave your mouth open.
Pele was already a famous, global superstar but defenders pretty much injured him out of the 1966 and part of the 1962 World Cups. No way is anyone allowed to do that to a prime Ronnie or Messi.
