Gino Hernandez

Hernandez is a character who first appeared in Captain Tsubasa (1981) ch.86, "Greeting From an Old Enemy". He wears the jersey #1 of Italy. Hernandez has a sense of pride throughout all his appearances during the series' run-time as Italy's goalkeeper, wanting to live up to his nickname as the "Perfect Keeper". However, much like all other opponents Japan and Tsubasa have played against, he has good sportsmanship, willing to admit when he has lost to Japan and accept it, but this same behavior has not been seen from him toward any other team.
