Vava's shot in the World Cup 58
French goalkeeper Claude Abbes dives but fails to save Edvaldo Netto Vava's shot in the World Cup semi-final between France and Brazil in Stockholm. Brazil won the match 5-2.
Vava earned 20 caps with the Brazilian national team, scoring a total of 15 goals.
He was on the side that won both the 1958 and 1962 World Cup, in which he scored 5 and 4 goals, respectively. Furthermore, he was a joint recipient of the 1962 World Cup Golden Shoe award.
Vava scored in the final of both 1958 (twice) and 1962 (once), thus becoming the first player to score in the final of two different world cups.
