When 'Jesus' Came to Hong Kong - Derek Currie - Bog

When Scottish footballer Derek Currie received an offer to move to Hong Kong to play against the one sportsman he had dreamed of meeting on the field, he couldn't say no. From playing football against Pelé in the Far East, to singing with Stevie Wonder and shadow-boxing with Marvelous Marvin Hagler, Currie enjoyed a magical life as one of the first three European professional footballers in Asia. He was quickly nicknamed 'Jesus' by local fans.
