Brazil ex-captain dies
BELLINI, Brazil’s captain when it won its first World Cup in 1958, died on Thursday from complications following a heart attack. He was 83. The Hospital 9 de Julho confirmed Bellini’s death in a statement. The central defender became widely known for being the first captain to raise the World Cup trophy above his head as a symbol of triumph. The gesture became immortalized with a statue of Bellini in front of Maracana Stadium. He had a heart attack on Tuesday and had been hospitalized since then. Bellini also won the 1962 World Cup and appeared in the 1966 tournament.
