Ademir da Guia

Ademir da Guia is a genuine legend, and I don't use that word loosely. As Palmeiras' playmaker through the 1960s and 70s, he is still ranked among the club's greatest ever, prized for sublime close control and the kind of passing that bends a match to your will. I gravitate toward conductors like him over pure goal-scorers; there's an art in making teammates better. That he later became a politician only deepens the picture: a man who moved players on the pitch, then tried to move people in public life. His name still carries the gold-tinted memory of Brazilian football, and I tip my hat.
