🖤 Oscar Schmidt: legend's death shakes football; see tributes The death of Oscar Schmidt, a basketball legend, resonated throughout the football world this Friday (17). According to GE , Oscar suffered a cardiorespiratory arrest on Thursday (16) and was taken to Hospital e Maternidade Municipal Santa Ana (HMSA), but did not survive. "Holy Hand" had a strong connection with football.
He supported Santos until he was 38 years old (and greatly admired Fluminense). After that, however, Oscar Schmidt won a title with Corinthians' basketball team and became a fan of Timão. He also played for clubs such as Palmeiras and Flamengo and, of course, made history with the Brazilian national team.
For all these reasons, several Brazilian clubs paid tribute to Oscar Schmidt. See the posts below: This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence. You can read the original version in 🇧🇷 here.
