Death of the Last Player from the 1958 World Cup Final

The last player who participated in the final match of the 1958 World Cup, which was won by the Brazilian team, has passed away. The Swedish Football Association announced on Sunday that Kurt Hamrin, former winger of the Swedish national team and the all-time top scorer for Fiorentina, died at the age of 89. Hamrin was nicknamed "the little bird" due to his evident speed and agility in the attack. He led Sweden to the World Cup final in 1958 by scoring 4 goals for the team and was the last surviving player who participated in the final match, which ended in a 5-2 victory for Brazil, led by Pelé.
