Vicente Sánchez

Vicente Sánchez carries the unmistakable stamp of Uruguayan football: a small nation that punches absurdly above its weight. At 170 cm he was never going to overpower anyone, which tells me his game lived in technique, vision and cleverness, the South American virtues. What earns my respect is the clean handoff from player to manager. Plenty of gifted footballers drift away once the legs go; Sánchez stayed in the dugout, choosing to teach the sport rather than merely retire from it. I have a soft spot for these homegrown lifers who treat football as a vocation rather than a phase.
