Former soccer player Johan Neeskens from the Netherlands has passed away, aged 73. He was born on 15 September 1951 in Heemstede in the Netherlands, and played as a midfielder for AFC Ajax in the early 1970's, winning the UEFA Champions' Cup three times in a row (1971, 1972 and 1973) before moving on to FC Barcelona in Spain in 1974.
