Michel De Wolf was a short, feisty and, most of all, unyielding wing back who would never give up. He always had to fight for his place. He played in the 1986 World Cup and the World Championship of 1994, but his big career only started when he was over 30. He was selected for the World Cup in Italy and scored one of the nicest goals of the tournament with an impressive shot from distance against South Korea. In 1994, at age 36, he was selected for the World Cup in the United States, where he played all matches.
