Mario Corso ( Italian pronunciation: [ˈmaːrjo ˈkorso]; 25 August 1941 – 19 June 2020) was an Italian football player and coach. A famed and dynamic left winger, he was regarded as one of the greatest Italian players in his position, earning the nicknames "Mandrake" and "God's Left Foot", due to his skills, free kick technique and crossing ability.
Corso was mostly remembered for his highly successful club career at Inter Milan, and was a key member of Helenio Herrera's Grande Inter side. He also represented the Italy national team on 23 occasions. After retiring, he later served as a coach for Inter Milan and other teams, winning the B group of the 1987–88 Serie C2 campaign with Mantova.
