Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

Answer: Jose Francisco Porras

Answer: Alonso Solis

Jorge Alonso Solis first played in Saprissa, where he shined but never stood as a star. When he left to play in the foreign, nobody heard about him. He scored some goals, yes, but when he came back as forward, he struck hard. Solis had the technique, cold blood and dance needed for a perfect player. He defined many Liga-Saprissa games, so he was considered the best.

Answer: Paulo Wanchope
