Description
Enzo Francescoli Uriarte is a former Uruguayan football player. Francescoli was nicknamed El Pr�ncipe or Le Prince. He played 73 times for the Uruguay national team between 1982 and his retirement in 1997, making him the most capped outfield player in Uruguayan international football at the time. He is regarded as one of the greatest players of Uruguay, perhaps the greatest to have never played for the two biggest clubs in the country. He was known for his classic and elegant style, like El Pr�ncipe, in reference to Hannibal Ciocca, a former Uruguayan player from the 1930s and 40. He later was the only Uruguayan included by Pel� in the FIFA 100 list, and was chosen by the International Federation of History and Statistics Football as the sixth greatest player of his country and 24th of South America in the Twentieth Century.
He is considered a playmaker in the decadent age of Celeste. He has been in two World Cups, 1986 and 1990, when Uruguay fell in the eighth finals both times, for which he had just arrived, in both cases, as one of the best third-placed in the first phase. When already a veteran, Uruguay failed to qualify for the world cups of 1994 and 1998.
