George Best was a Northern Irish footballer, best known for his incredible dribbling style and ability to beat defenders. Born on 22 May 1946 to Dickie Best and Anne Best, the soccer legend was the backbone of both his teams Manchester United and the Northern Ireland national team. He has been an inspiration to millions of soccer players and fans around the globe and has been described as “the greatest player to ever pull on the green shirt of Northern Ireland” by the Irish Football Association. Best's football career since a tender age to growing up as a legendary soccer master has not only been inspiring, but full of tales that you cannot miss to hear.

Best's club career commenced with Manchester United at the age of 15 when manager Matt Busby received a telegram from scout Bob Bishop - “I think I've found you a genius.” Since then, the legendary soccer master has given this beautiful game a series of historical and record breaking goals like never before. His audience around the world admired his style of play that comprised of pace, skill, two-footedness, balance, feints and goalscoring. His First Division debut happened at the age of 17 when playing against West Bromwich Albion at Old Trafford. The legend also led the team to the FA Cup semi-finals and gave a record breaking defeat to West Ham United.

It was on 15 May 1971 at Windsor Park in Belfast when George scored the most notable goal of his entire career against England. Gordon Banks had released the ball in the air when Best kicked the ball first sending it high over their heads. Best continued to showcase his amazing talent on field throughout his career even after going through many age and drink issues. George Best's skills and passion towards this beautiful game also earned him the nickname “El Beatle”. He lived an extravagant lifestyle and had also appeared on the “Top of the Pops” in 1965. However, the legend slowly got trapped into alcoholism that led him to endless suffers throughout his life, both on and off the field. He once said, “I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars - the rest I just squandered”. Best married Angie Best with whom he has a son named Calum Best. He later married another former model Alex Best. At the age of 59, Best took his last breath as he was undergoing complications from the immuno-suppressive drugs he had consumed after being controversially granted an NHS liver transplant in 2002.George Best,george best skills,george best best goal ever,george best skills and goals,george best dribbling,george best documentary,george best interview,fame world,george best tribute,george best football's greatest,football documentary,george best football genius,george best maradona,george best funeral,george best death,george best drunk interview,Euro Cup,euro 2016,euro live,euro football,euro cup live,football,highlights
