between two World Cup winners

This shirt swap, between two World Cup winners, is thought to have popularised the concept of exchanging jerseys.
Brazil had beaten England 1-0 thanks to a goal from england team jerseys Jairzinho but the game also featured two famous moments in  English football as Gordon Banks saved from Pele and Moore denied Jairzinho with a fantastic tackle.
After the game, Pele approached Moore, cheap football shirts and the rivals embraced and exchanged jerseys in  a show of mutual respect.
Brazil went on to reach the final where they beat Italy while England were knocked out in the quarter-finals by West Germany.
Pele would later reveal his admiration for Moore.
'He was my friend as well as the greatest defender I ac milan shirts ever played against,' he said. 'The shirt he wore against me in that 1970 match is my prize possession. The world has lost one of its greatest football players and an honourable gentleman.'
A 20ft statue of Moore now stands outside the new Wembley Stadium, with the former West Ham defender looking down Wembley Way.
