goals. Jairzinho has claimed that FIFA awarded him a "best body on the planet" prize for his athleticism; however, FIFA has no record of this award. Jairzinho scored two goals in the 1974 FIFA World Cup, which would prove to be his last World Cup for Brazil. The third-place final was his last match for Brazil until he was given a one-off farewell cap against Czechoslovakia on March 3, 1982 in a game which Brazil drew 1–1. He scored 33 goals in 81 games during his international career. Style of play Throughout his whole career, Jairzinho was seen as a versatile forward who could cause damage and impose a severe goal threat from anywhere on the pitch. He possessed lightning speed and a quick burst of acceleration, an excellent first touch and dribbling skills, but his most feared attribute, his strength. Many have claimed it takes minimum 3 men to push him off the ball. And Jairzinho was a hard working team player who would constantly track back and use his body structure to hold off counter attacks and block runs. His runs off the ball were one of the main reasons he collected so many goals for his Botafogo record. In the 1970 FIFA World Cup he displayed to the world his attacking instincts especially with his goal vs England which earned Brazil the victory and broke the 0-0 deadlock. The secondary run off Pelé for him to tuck away a powerful top left corner finish displayed his threat in front of goal as well as his movement. His finishing ability was second to none. The timing, accuracy and power Jairzinho would develop behind his shots were almost perfect and unsavable. He also possessed powerful and accurate shots with his left foot making him a nightmare for opposition defenders to close down. As well as his effective simple play Jairzinho possessed many talents on the ball and phenomenal technical ability. One of his signature moves included flicking the ball up from a pass in open play inside the box and cushioning it perfectly for an open shot. In terms of technical ability he also possesses smart creativity, which is shown from the ball Jairzinho put in for Pelé vs England following the famous Gordon Banks save. Some may say Jairzinho is one of the most complete forwards of all time. Managerial career After retiring as a footballer, Jairzinho became
