Yep. It's brothers in a World Cup winning team.

The other is post-war, but before '66.

So it's 50, 54 or 58. Making them Uruguayan, West German or Brazilian.

The very same! The Walters & Jack & Bobby are the only brothers to play in World Cup winning teams. Don't think it can be equalled this time.

I have played in three World Cups. The first time I played in the competition my shirt number was higher than my age. Who am I, what was my number, what was my age?
