Garrincha — questions

Which club does Garrincha play for?

Garrincha is recorded at Sport Club Corinthians Paulista. Transfers change clubs, so the record is a snapshot rather than a live feed.

Could Garrincha be a Extra Time answer?

Garrincha is 9 characters, so it is not a five-letter answer itself; the five-letter names and terms in the database are what the board draws on.

Where does this record come from?

The same open football database the game is built on (primarily DBpedia, derived from Wikipedia under a free licence), maintained alongside the puzzle. A blank field means the source did not state the value; nothing is invented to fill a gap.
