Club career

Van Ede was a product of the Sparta Rotterdam youth system, joining the club at 11 and making his senior debut in 1947. During the Second World War he was sent to work in Germany but fled to England, where he became a member of the Princess Irene Brigade.[1] He won the 1959 Dutch league title with Sparta and in the next season was part of the first Dutch football team that made it to the European Cup quarter finals. He scored the only goal in an away win at Rangers but Sparta was eliminated on away goals, having lost the home leg 2-3.

In 1962 he won the KNVB Cup with Sparta.

International career

Van Ede also played for the Netherlands in friendly matches against Belgium and Norway[2] in April and September 1953.[3]

Retirement

After retiring, van Ede was named honorary member of Sparta and in 2010 the main stand at the Sparta stadium was named after him.[4]

He died on 16 February 2011 at the age of 86.[5]

gollark: I also like Factorio, because despite being magic-blocky there are complex supply chains and stuff, loads of ways to optimize, and it's actually designed to allow mass production.
gollark: Ender IO: place one block, you have done all ore processing forever, maybe add grinding balls.TE: get pulverizer, you can also get induction smelters with interesting tradeoffs (faster but requires sand and no secondary output of other metal), maybe set up hybrid system involving feeding in cinnabar or whatever, get pyro-concentrators and tectonic initiators, supply petrotheum and pyrotheum...
gollark: Yes, but they allow complex stuff to be built from them, that's the thing.
gollark: (yes, you can play it on 1.12, GT:CE at least)
gollark: GregTech... is GregTech.
