The footballing legacy of Mario Zagallo

Newshour

Available for over a year

Mario Zagallo won four World Cups as a player and coach for Brazil. He may not have the global name recognition of the late Pele, but the Brazilian footballing legend - who has died at the age of 92 - was actually part of one more Brazil World Cup victory than him. London-based Brazilian football journalist Marina Izidro told Newshour's James Coomarasamy more about the impact of Zagallo, on and off the field.
