A Sport Lisboa e Benfica (Benfica) 1971 football jersey worn by Portuguese football star Eusébio da Silva Ferreira, widely known simply as Eusébio, during the 1971 Ramón de Carranza Trophy, a yearly preseason football tournament organized by Cádiz CF in memory of its former president, Ramón de Carranza.
