from OTD: Your Daily Dose of Soccer History · host 17 Laws Guy

20 Mar 1963: Argentina beat Ecuador 4-2 in the South American Championship, and Raúl Savoy scored one of football’s strangest goals — after being substituted off and then back on again. This episode tells the story of that bizarre afternoon in Cochabamba, the flexible substitution culture of the 1963 tournament in Bolivia, and the wider context of a championship shaped by altitude, withdrawals, and experimental squads.
