The roster of the legendary team OGFC, formed by soccer legends who commanded the Premier League, has been outlined.

Frein Sports announced in a press release on the 17th that twin brothers Dimitar Berbatov, Louis Saha, Nemanja Vidic, and Rafael and Fabio da Silva joined OGFC. Following Park Ji-sung, Rio Ferdinand, Patrice Evra and Ryan Giggs, who were unveiled earlier, they will build a brilliant lineup.

Berbatov, who joined the new team, is a striker who boasts a genius touch as a former top scorer in the Premier League in the 2010-2011 season. Saha is a goaltender with explosive speed as he won the UEFA Champions League (UCL) in the 2007-2008 season. In addition to this, Vidic, who formed the legendary defensive wall along with twin fullbacks Rafael, Fabio, and Ferdinand, is perfect in both offense and defense.

OGFC aimed to break the career high winning rate of 73%, which players recorded during their active career. He even set an unconventional principle of disbanding the team if it does not reach the target winning rate.

The team name, OGFC, was reportedly proposed by Ferdinand himself. OG stands for "The Originals," which means aid in the English-speaking world, and is an expression of respect for a person who has held a position for a long time in a specific field. The original soccer legends gathered to show their will to win once again on the ground.

OGFC's historic first match will be held at Suwon World Cup Stadium on April 19. The opponent is Suwon Samsung Bluewings Legend Team, which includes Seo Jung-won, Cho Won-hee and Kwak Hee-joo. The two teams are scheduled to go head-to-head in the 90th minute of the first half with a full season match.

"OGFC is not a one-time event to celebrate the glory of the past, but a team formed for a new challenge that legendary players will show through soccer," Shot4Love said. Starting with its first game in Suwon, OGFC plans to continue facing various legendary teams around the world in the future.

The specific roster and ticket reservation information of both teams will be released sequentially through Shoot For Love and Suwon Samsung's official social network service (SNS) channel.
