On 30 August 2010 ago, the world has lost a player who became the last witness of the first World Cup held in 1930. He is Francesco Varallo, who died at the age of 100 years.Varallo play in the final 1930 World Cup against Uruguay. The match ended with the score 4-2 for Uruguay victory. Last February he has just celebrate 100th birthday, and on that occasion he was interviewed by Fifa.com about her life history. He said that although he entered the ranks of top scorer in the history of the national team and club Boca Juniors, but he could not forget the 2-4 defeat to Uruguay in the 1930 World Cup final.
Actually at that time Argentina had the lead 2-1 in the first round. But in the second half,score even turned for Uruguay. 3 goals was successfully made by Uruguay in the second half, while Argentina failed to add any goals.
Now, the owner of the nickname "Canoncito" which means "Little Cannon" is already gone for forever... Goodbye Varallo.
