The transmission of the Chilean campaign in the 1962 World Cup through CDF brought to mind the epic of Fernando Riera’s team, to the surprise of many who saw the Golden Generation as the only historical bastion of the Red.
Men like Leonel Sánchez, Jorge Toro and Jaime Ramírez emerged as figures of a team that stamped the best campaign in the world for the Chilean team, with a third place of heroic value achieved against Yugoslavia.
Did you see the games? We want to know your opinion and that you choose who was the best Red player in the ’62 World Cup. A legend of almost 60 years that lasts over time.
one
Raúl Sánchez
The defender of Santiago Wanderers was the mirror of Elías Figueroa, a clean starting defender and great speed at the crossing. A quarterback.
2
Carlos Contreras
A modern defender, able to break lines, join the midfield and also deal with canceling tanks like Uwe Seeler.
3
Eladio Rojas
Robust performance by the Everton player, author of two goals – among them the one that gave Chile third place – and a real lung in the core area in the assembly, containment and balance.
4
Jaime Ramírez
A kind of Alexis Sánchez in its beginnings. He scored two goals and it was the imbalance on the right wing, where he ravaged speed and technique.
5
Jorge Toro
He jumped from La Roja to European football thanks to his extraordinary vision of the game. He scored two goals, broke lines, finished on goal, collaborated on the mark and had a heroic farewell against Yugoslavia.
6
Leonel Sánchez
The left-hander was the leader of the Chilean attack, scorer of the cup with four touchdowns, and permanent headache for the rival defenses. He handled all the profiles to finish off and maneuver.
