Bebeto famously helped Brazil to World Cup glory in 1994, forming a deadly partnership with striker Romario.

In that tournament, Bebeto famously performed a cradle-rocking celebration with Romario and Mazinho after scoring against the Netherlands to commemorate Mattheus’ birth.

 

Mattheus, 22, was a Brazil Under-20 international, winning four caps.
