Question 19. Who is this?


Wales
1950–1965
38 Caps
15 Goals


(wikipedia) "... (December 27, 1931 – February 21, 2004) Rated by many as the greatest all-round footballer ever to come from Britain, he was equally adept at centre-forward or centre-back.

He was never cautioned or sent off during his entire career, due to his philosophy of never kicking or intentionally hurting opposing players. Standing at 6 feet 2 inches, he was nicknamed Il Gigante Buono – The Gentle Giant."
