I remember the Brazilian team dedicated their world cup win to Ayrton Senna and seem to remember them waving a huge flag of him also saying they were inspired by his death to push on.
So maybe if the unfortunate inevitably happens they might have the same mentality.
When Maradona died the Napoli team went on to say his death pushed them to up their game.
When you’re still seen as a hugely relevant figure 52 years after your greatest hour then you know you’ve left a legacy that will last many generations.
Probably the most famous football player of all time.
