Rivera, who captained Milan to two European Champion Clubs' Cup triumphs in 1963 and 1969, was an extraordinary talent and a formidable man. Born in 1943 in Alessandria, a town between Turin and Milan, he has always represented the other side of Italian football - the side most critical of Italy's football establishment.
Rivera played his youth football with Alessandria, at that time a Serie A club, making his first-team debut at 16 before moving to Milan the year after.
Aldo Maldera, his team-mate at Milan, once said that Rivera told him: "When I have the ball, even if I am not looking at you, just run straight forward and you'll find the ball right in front of you." Most of the time, says Maldera, the ball was there.
