Can I get a ruling on whether Figo counts as a local pick? He was born in Almada, which is just a couple of miles from Lisbon.
Yeah having just been to Lisbon, that definitely counts!
Also gutted to miss out on Cafu, I actually saw him play in the Roma v Lazio derby when I was young.
Was a mad game, 2-0 Roma, but the Lazio fans rioted (they were pulling out the seats and chucking them - in their own ground).
We were sat on the barrier between the fans. There were bushes on fire all round the ground and we came out with burning red eyes after the police came in with tear gas to calm the Lazio fans.
