Good Leader/Bad Leader – World Cup Lookalikes Part 2

You can’t always help who you look like and sometimes a good man has a resemblance to a not very nice man.

Javier Aguirre lead a failing Mexican side from the brink of World Cup elimination to an eventually comfortable qualification, and perhaps to even greater things given their draw.

Slobodan Milosevic more or less did the opposite. He led a Yugoslav nation full of potential and perhaps readier than any post Cold War nation to harmonise its economy with the west, to ruin and civil war.

Both got what they deserved. The latter ended up hearing Dutch in the Hague in an International Criminal Tribunal; the former the 18th Century form of Dutch that is Afrikaans, in South Africa.

Saved a Nation

Ruined a Nation

Do you know of any World Cup lookalikes? Post them below and if we agree, they may feature in this utterly pointless new feature on Prost Amerika.
