The Story of The 5’6 Goalkeeper That Was SO GOOD, He Forced FIFA To Change The Rules

  • In the world of football, you can shine by either scoring goals, dribbling brilliantly, making amazing passes, or excel by stopping other players at the defense or defending your goal as a goalkeeper. But would you believe me if I told you that a couple of decades ago, there was someone who wanted to shine in all those ways? A goalkeeper who was addicted to both stopping goals and scoring some incredible ones of his own. He didn't want to limit himself to just the goal area; he wanted to conquer the entire field.
    He did what no other keeper before and wanted to completely redefine the position, at times starting the match as a keeper and switching halfway to play as a striker. And despite being only 5’6 or 168 cm making him one of the shortest goalkeepers in professional footballing history, he was just so good at both things that fifa literally had no choice but to change the rules of the game JUST because of him. So today, we’re gonna look at the incredibly unique and iconic career story of Jorge Campos.

He knew perfectly that his height was his bigges issue, he understood that the only way to keep himself there was to be outstanding in every game every play. His carisma and humble origins where just out of this World, amazing funny little great guy. By the way, he is still a humble guy up to this day.

    Soy argentino y siempre admiré a Jorge Campos. No hace falta debatir si fue bueno malo excelente o brillante para mi simplemente fue un fenómeno... gran arquero, rápido de piernas la altura no lo ayudaba pero contrarrestaba con su velocidad y buen juego y ENCIMA se ponía la 9 iba de delantero y metía goles (¿Goles? GOLAZOS METÍA!) Yo creo francamente que es un enviado del cielo que nos dijo "¿Quieren ver un tipo que ataja como ataca? Tomá Acá Tenés!". Y buen, ahí lo tienen. Encima un tipazo era me acuerdo vino a la inaguración de la cancha de Quilmes en los 90 acá en Buenos Aires y la gente insistió tanto desde las tribunas para que entre de delantero que lo terminó haciendo y metiendo un golazo a los pocos minutos! Y ojo, era un amistoso pero lleno de figuras de la liga argentina de aquella época que creo que fue cuando la liga argentina era top 5 del mundo. UN GENIO Y MUY INFRAVALORADO!

There are some footages from this historical moment for us. My mother (thanks to her I am a football fan) still recalls him to this day as the parrot. Of course it's because of his kits. Mexico definetly had some remarcable players then but no one could beat Campos for me. I am happy that exactly 30 years from that summer I can hear Campos' story.

As a USMNT Fan I have to say watching him vs US was fantastic and then when he came to the MLS was always fun to watch him take off from the goal. What a quality player . Much respect for his achievements.

    He was an idol for my dad and myself as a kid that I too played forward and goalkeeper for a short period of time. But coming from a family who’s from la Costa Chica, He was
    someone who really gave a great recognition to Acapulco and Guerrero in general considering you rarely hear great players come from the state of Guerrero MX.
    (with the expectation of Manuel Negrete who scored that famous scissor kick in the 86’ World Cup.)
    Fun Fact : He has a restaurant in Acapulco named “El Brody’s” where he has 4 football fields to play on and memorabilia with pictures of him and legends of the game and the food is quite nice I must say.

I knew about all other GKs in the Classic team (Taffarel, Ravelli, Preudhomme and Shilton) but Campos, I didnt know who even he was. I searched him on YT and watched his amazing saves, then asked my self, how come I never heard of this guy? only to look at his career on google and see that he only played for Mexican/USA clubs, and never played in Europe. well thats why, if he played in Europe, he would have been a much bigger name. a big talent and awesome goalkeeper despite his height disadvantage.

      If you want to see another similar Mexican genius and from the same time there is Benjamin Galindo... a switch-hitting midfielder who must have also played in Europe... but at that time, no one was looking for players in Mexico, hahaha and sadly, at that time there were great historical players for mexico, obviously the best known is hugo sanchez... but at that time mexico had a pretty decent team

    By the time I was old enough to understand football he had long since retired. But being Mexican myself I would always heard how much of a legend he was. He is currently a commentator for Azteca 7 a Mexican channel that Airs LigaMX games and also when the Mexican national team plays. He doesn’t speak much as a commentator, he is more like a honorary commentator. But the other commentators that do speak throughout the whole game love to have him in the booth with the rest of the staff.
