Yes, that’s right. Everyone knows how the Japanese love Zico. The guy is God over there (even though he sucked as Japan’s coach in World Cup 2006). And so, Japan’s champions Kashima Antlers have made a move to “secretly” honor Zico: their new uniform is extremely similar to Flamengo’s, Zico’s heart team. Now that is [...]
