I can't remember the score in this game. But there was and incident between Ricky Godard and Carlos Alberto. Correct me Flex, Tallman. But Rickey got a red card for striking Carlos. Ricky claimed Carlos spit at him. Guys, Ricky was quite an excellent player. Plenty speed. Could play both left and right side. He and Sammy were close. I did not see that game, but I could imagine that Carlos could not keep up with his speed.
The scoreline was 5-2 in favour of the Cosmos
