Alfredo Di Stefano Reaches Iconic Status Via Gaudy Statue

Alfredo Di Stefano has reached the zenith of grandeur. Real Madrid unveiled a monolithic statue of the Argentine striker known as the “Blond Arrow” (Saeta rubia) on Sunday to commemorate his prolific career. It looks like a big block of cheese, doesn’t it? It’s actually a lovely tribute, if you consider a statue revering a great soccer player resembles old and moldy mac ‘n’ cheese to be great. Eat your heart out Pele. Just eat, Diego.
