RIP PELE TRUE LEGEND OF THE GAME!🙏🏾

I've played football all my life and watched. I consider Messi way ahead of Ronaldo but Pele, by his posture alone and his era baring in mind over 75% of his matches were not recorded. He is the undisputed GOAT. I'm not even going to debate on this. He is no.1 followed by Messi at no.8. There's absolutely no human now and before that can compare. LEGEND!!!

Pele is a "Complete perfection" ; Head=100 Left Foot=100 Right Foot=100 Dribbling=100 Speed=100 Agility=100 Passes=100 Assists=100 Tricks=100 Technic=100 Free style=100 Jumping ability=100 Tackling ability=100 Goalscoring ability=100 Physical stamina=100 Vision=100 Creativity=100 Innovation=100 Anticipative skill=100 Balance & Control=100 Unselfishness=100 Teamwork=100 Defying logic=100 Love and respect for other players=100 Attitude on & off the pitch=100 World cups=100[3 times World Champion!] Where else can we find GOAT football players like Pele!? If there are GOATs, then Pele must be the Greatest Emperor of those GOATs. I think some angels are football players from planet Mars who do not want to play against Pele because they respect Pele's 100% perfection!

PELÉ invented actual high level football 60 years ago. All players try mirrow his level, his skills and technique...

Great video, I'm 43 years old, and from my point of view, taking into account that he started playing in the mid-50s...the boots weighed 500g, the ball 450g, and the defenders really broke legs... It was a ahead of his time, he invented the tunnels between the legs, and all kinds of dribbling. Quick and skilful like Ronaldinho, he took free kicks, finished off like Cristiano with his head, and finished off with both legs like Zidane. and of course he slipped away from everyone like Messi. But he did it 70 years ago and won 3 World Cups, the first of them at just 17 years old, and 1000 goals...

He had it all: dribbling, long shot, heading the ball, bucycle kicks, passes, rabonas, tunnels, speed, defensive skills, killer attacking skills. No other player has ever shown these skills. And we only have 20% of his plays in videos. 😭

Dead ball specialist, spoonfeed passes, both feet combination. He actually combined the best skills of Maradona & Messi and further added his own brilliance to make him the GOAT of the best sport ever created by human and spirit - FOOTBALL. PELÉ the grestest footballer of all time. Rest in perfect peace. Amen.

You experience Messi, but before Pelé and what he did for the football is what enabled Messi to exist. Messi is the greatest nowadays, Pelé is the GOAT. Eternal. Respectfully, there is no comparison, he was a complete player, he was an athlete, not only a footballer. Strong, decisive, artistic, intelligent, generous. Ahead of his time.

Just looking at some of his stats are nuts. On World Cups: 4 tournments- 3 trophies 14 mathes- 12 goals and 9/10 assists (one of them is actually contested), wich of these are 3 goals and 3 assists on the 2 finals he played (1958 and 1970). Honestly if this doesn't make anyone shocked then I don't know what could do. Offical stats. The RSSSF states that Pelé scored 775 goals and 363 assists in 840 official games. The goals were like these: Club/team Matches Goals Santos FC 660 643 New York Cosmos 64 37 Brazil 92 77 Military Team 4 4 (contested), since some people puts these goals as unofficial Selection São Paulo 15 12 (contested) Other Selections 5 2 (contested) *TOTAL 840 775 (0.92 ratio)* *The Unofficial stats raised to up to 1366 games and 1283 (0.94 ratio) goals and more than 450 assists (this is difficult to see because a lot of games it was not common to count or note the assists). From these more than 500 unofficial games there are about 120 games against TOP European Clubs that were friendlies on wich he scored 90 goals, but sadly aren't counted.* Then you look at his records that still aren't beated by Messi or CR7 (remember that ALMOST every other record these two broke first belonged to Pelé). Records: *Joint-most goals for Brazil national football team: 77 (95 including unofficial friendlies) (tied with Neymar)* Highest goals-per-game ratio (0.84) for Brazil national football team Highest goals-per-game ratio (0.84) of any South American top international scorer Highest goals-per-game ratio (2.33) of any leading scorer in the Intercontinental Cup Most goals in the Intercontinental Cup: 7 Most goals for Santos: 643 (in 659 competitive games) Most goals scored in a single Campeonato Paulista season: 58 (in 38 competitive games,1958 *Most goals in a calendar year (including friendlies, recognised by FIFA): 127 (1959)* *Most hat-tricks in world football: 92* *Most hat-tricks for Brazil: 7* *Most career goals in world football (including friendlies): 1,283 (in 1,363 games)* *Most FIFA World Cup winners' medals: 3 (1958, 1962, 1970)* *Youngest winner of a FIFA World Cup: aged 17 years and 249 days (1958)* *Youngest goalscorer in a FIFA World Cup: aged 17 years and 239 days (for Brazil vs Wales, 1958)* *Youngest player to score twice in a FIFA World Cup semi-final: aged 17 years and 244 days (for Brazil vs France, 1958)* *Youngest player to score a hat-trick in a FIFA World Cup: aged 17 years and 244 days (for Brazil vs France, 1958)* *Youngest player to play in a FIFA World Cup Final: aged 17 years and 249 days (1958)* *Youngest goalscorer in a FIFA World Cup Final: aged 17 years and 249 days (for Brazil vs Sweden, 1958)* *Youngest player to score twice in a FIFA World Cup Final: aged 17 years and 249 days (for Brazil vs Sweden, 1958)* Youngest player to start a knockout match at a FIFA World Cup *Youngest player to reach five FIFA World Cup knockout stage goals* *Youngest goalscorer for Brazil national football team: aged 16 years and nine months (Brazil vs Argentina, 1957)* *First player to score in three successive FIFA World Cups* *One of only five players to have scored in four different FIFA World Cup tournaments* *One of only five players to have scored in two different FIFA World Cup Finals* Scored in two FIFA World Cup Finals for winning teams (shared with Vavá) *Most assists provided in FIFA World Cup history: 10 (1958-1970)* *Most assists provided in a single FIFA World Cup tournament: 6 (1970)* *Most assists provided in FIFA World Cup Final matches: 3 (1 in 1958 and 2 in 1970)* *Most assists provided in FIFA World Cup knockout phase: 6 (shared with Messi)* Most goals from open play in FIFA World Cup Final matches: 3 (2 in 1958 and 1 in 1970) (shared with Vavá, Geoff Hurst, Mbappé and Zinedine Zidane) -- Now broken by Mbappe with 4 (with you put the extra time, only on the regular 90 min, Mbappé also has 3) Only player to reach 25 international goals as a teenager Only player to score in a FIFA World Cup before turning 18 *Only player to score a hat-trick in a FIFA World cup before turning 18* Only player to have scored a hat-trick in the Intercontinental Cup.

He made EVERYTHING those guys makes today, 50 years before and without NO support of modern technology on phisical health, nutrition or medical developments... He simply as WAY BETTER than the sum of Messi+CR+ others together... Period.

O Pelé é realmente impressionante quanto mais pesquiso sobre ele mais vejo porque ninguém chegou perto dele e dificilmente chegara pois é completo em todos os quesitos para jogar futebol e perfeito em todos Gols , assistências , domínio, velocidade , explosão, intensidade, chute, pena direita e esquerda, cabeceio, pênalti , faltas , escanteios , chutes de fora da área, dribles, condução de bola, improviso, velocidade de raciocínio, armação de jogadas,força física e mental, marcava bem , era inteligente taticamente e um poder de finalização sem igual. Este é o rei Pelé incomparável mesmo! Deus abençoe ele e o nosso brasil!😉

Pele is without argument the best football player yet. The best proof is the 1970 World Cup in Mexico. Watch all the Brasil games to see how Pele put on a clinic on how to play the game. He was a complete player, quick and fast, he could head the ball with power and placement, he could kick the ball with either foot, he could pass very well, he could dribble like no other. Pele was very intelligent on the pitch, and he understood the game better than most. Pele was an athlete with the body of a Greek God. A superior specimen indeed.

Pelé is the greatest scorer ever, one of the goat dribblers and playmakers. 🐐

I just gonna say ONE thing, and this is why he's the king. Back them when he was destroying every single one of the defenders and scoring a lot of Goals, there wasn't Yellows and Red Cards, so the defenders had a free pass to punch, kick and hurt the fowards.... And even so they couldn't stop him. Can you imagine, Messi, Neymar, Mbape playing a game without cards, just fouls???

Pelé its a Real King of the Football!!! The only and real one! Anyone will be so complete like him. Pelé is unique and etern !

Fun fact: Pele have also played as a goalkeeper on the times when the main goalkeeper was injured or kicked out. So yeah, literally the complete player.

To be compared with Pele you have to Play four world cups and win three. The first one he was seventeen years old and scored 6 amazing goals Play in a time the fields were horrible, the balls were heavier and no yellow or red cards. Score more than 1000 goals Some "specialists" say if Pele played today, he would never have scored so many goals. I agree, It could have been more than 1500 goals He is incomparable!!! that's it!!

Pelé was ahead of his time!!! You can imagine what he could do with the preparation nowadays!!!

RIP Pele the king of football but the bigger tragedy is 90% of the things he did on the pitch have not been filmed. The mind boggles at some of the things we all have missed.

Pele is Pele.... No-one is close to his magic with the ball...all the videos are the proof... His ball control, distribution, composure, creativity, goals.... were ahead of time... Even this time... Because there is no match for his capabilities...he made playing soccer simple, easy in situations that were not easy... No superlative is enough to give account of him.

Besides his dribbling, passing and finishing, Pele's vision and IQ is what made him the player he was

Não tenho nenhuma dúvida que Pelé foi o melhor jogador de todos os tempos... Rei Pelé um jogador completo que jogava bem com as duas pernas 🙏

Pele was outstandingly brilliant, completely two footed, incomparable heading ability, gifted with genius, unselfish and marvellously subtle - the best in the business.

il più grande di sempre. Calciatore completo, piede destro, piede sinistro, colpo di testa, calci di punizione, goal in acrobazia, goal da fermo e goal in velocità, assist-man e super goleador !!! Nessuno come lui. Poi purtroppo il tempo fa dimenticare le cose.

Well done young man. You're probably, the first millennial, KZfaq football content creator, that accurately captured what O'Rei was. Super break down. You also crucially mentioned. The inferiority of the muddy pitches, heavy boots, slower traveling football's, Pelé had to contend with & master. For Dribble prowess , pass prowess, world class with both feet prowess, heading prowess , tackling prowess , free style skills prowess, prolific goalscoring prowess, speed/ athleticism/agility prowess. ( compared to today's dream, billiard ball playing surfaces, faster moving balls, lighter boots & kits). Not to mention, the rough tackling, brutals fouls, back then. He also had no billion dollars, super team's. Featuring the best players from around. To ply his trade in. Like Messi & Ronaldo had/ have. And yet. He produce a level of *_complete_* football, never matched.

That goal you called iconic, was in the 1958 World Cup final, when he was 17 years old. This makes it even more iconic.

Imagine seeing Pele play live bro. Under the conditions he played, Kick with the left. kicks with the right,(Mes who?)heads like a ram, runs pass everyone with ease,(Mbab who?) is strong , skips tackles like a master and pure POWER IN DA SHOTS.

Não tem como alguém chegar nesse nível. Nem Messi que para mim é o melhor dos melhores. Pelé ainda fica em primeiro. Não tem como tirar a honra de ser o Rei do futebol.

RIP King. He is the GOAT by far. He invented the modern game. Always humble and gracious, a true king. (Great highlight reel. Thank you)

1.283 Goals & 🏆🏆🏆 Forever The King Of GOAT

I laughed when he said "good chess control". There is no one that comes near to Pele Chess control, is absolute legendary.

Tudo o que os grandes jogadores fazem hoje o Pelé já fez antes. O futebol é dividido entre antes e depois de Pelé.

The Greatest Of All Times; PELE.

Pele is unique, apart from everyone that came after him. He was the FIRST MODERN player. Everything CAME from him. Creating dribbles, lightning fast and so strong. Shot with BOTH feet, strong headers, extraordinary vision and play making, passing ability. Imagine the King with nutritional, strength and conditioning, coaching and psychological staffs. Picture perfect fields with no holes and ball perfectly manufactured. He would score 2,000 goals and would be making $200 million a year. Pele is and will always be ETERNAL.

I think Pelé is a DNA combination from CR7, Zidane, Messi and Ronaldo. The athletic condition and head shots from CR7 Field and ball controll from Zidane The focus to score goals from Messi And skills from Ronaldo Pelé is GOAT

GOAT GOAT GOAT 👑 👑 👑

Plus: When Pelé played in Brazil, he faced players who won 3 World Cups out of 4 played, as it was not normal for players to be transferred to Europe. Brazil, at the time of Pelé, was the NBA of football. In addition, he got tired of beating Europeans in the World Cup, and in tournaments and tours that Santos made around the world.

REI PELÉ 🤴 COM 17 ANOS GANHOU A PRIMEIRA COPA DO MUNDO, ERA CAÇADO EM CAMPO !!! A BOLA COLAVA NELE, ERA HUMILDE, MUITA VELOCIDADE, EXPLOSÃO, GENIALIDADE, TÉCNICA, IMPULSÃO, DOMINIO, CABECEIO, CONTROLE DE BOLA, TALENTONATO ETC.... ESSE ERA O MELHOR JOGADOR DO MUNDO, PELÉ ERA DE OUTRO PLANETA 🌏

One important thing to note is how strong he actually was, he was mad swole that's why he was able to do all the things he did

Whatever you had seen Maradona, Zidane, Ronaldinho, Messi, Okocha, etc do, Pele had done...and even more. Without doubt, Pele is the greatest player that ever kicked the ball.

DIOS del fútbol , sólo PELÉ!!!!

Pelé é incomparável , não tem como comparar Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Romário, Ronaldinho, Ronaldo, Maradona, Neymar, etc. com o rei do futebol. Pelé disputou a eliminatórias da copa do mundo com 16 anos, e aos 17 anos foi campeão mundial pela seleção brasileira. Pelé foi 3 vezes campeão mundial pelo Brasil, duas vezes campeão mundial de clubes pelo Santos F.C. Fez 1280 gols em 1372 jogos na sua carreira, porém com um detalhe, jogando em campos esburacados, usando chuteiras pesadíssimas com pregos no solado que furavam os pés, chutando bolas que pesavam muitos quilogramas acima quando chovia. Além disso, Pelé jogou praticamente toda a sua carreira levando botinadas de zagueiros que tentavam pará-lo na violência, uma vez que toda a sua carreira jogou sem a proteção de cartões amarelos e vermelhos, que só foram existir a partir de 1974, ano em que Pelé encerrou sua carreira. Se Pelé jogasse hoje em dia, com materiais esportivos levíssimos, campos lisos como tapetes, com a proteção de cartões amarelos e vermelhos, com uma equipe multidisciplinar (médicos, preparadores físicos, fisioterapeutas, nutricionistas, etc.) cuidando do seu desempenho físico, dormindo em hotéis 5 estrelas, viajando de avião, etc. Pelé faria miséria em cima dos jogadores toscos que temos hoje em dia (cintura dura). Pelé foi único na história do futebol, não haverá outro jogador que tenha todas as qualidades que um atleta precisa ter para jogar futebol (chute com os dois pés, impulsão, força, velocidade, inteligência, etc.), no mais alto grau que já se viu em jogadores de futebol, porém tudo isso em uma só pessoa, e jogando toda a sua carreira no mesmo nível de sempre. Pelé driblava tão bem como Garrincha, era veloz como Ronaldo e Mbappe, tinha a impulsão de Cristiano Ronaldo, a força de Adriano Imperador, a inteligência de Backenbauer, etc.. Pelé foi eleito "O Atleta do Século" pelo Comitê Olímpico Internacional (e não o jogador de futebol). Quando nascerá outro jogador de futebol (atleta, que poderia ter sido decatleta de ponta, como cientistas que o analisaram afirmaram) com essas qualidades ao extremo numa só pessoa?

Man, you did a great analysis. Something that is even hard to notice on the videos because of quality, but Pelé could play on the same level with his both legs. Many of those powerful shots (and goals) he did using not only his right leg, but also the left one as well. Something else that I heard about when watching his film is that he was used to use the opponent to dribble and get out of tough situations. He would kick the ball on the opponents legs for example to get the ball further ahead and drible multiple of them at the same time. He did that several times through his career. Again great video. Thanks for sharing it.

I’ve never seen Pele playing live and I can say by watching the videos that none of the best soccer players in the world would exist without Pele! Everything that you see any soccer player doing Pele has done before. He was absolutely incredible! There will be always a good player for each generation, but he will always be the king because he started the whole thing! He was the first one to show the beautiful game!

No Messi no Ronaldo no Maradona No Ronaldinho can tie Pele's shoes lace.

He was absolutely completely totally the BEST ever to walk the Earth in Soccer.

He was also good in the air, could use both feet, could tackle and defend. He was also capable to play as a goalkeeper.

Now, just imagine if Pele played on fields that are like today, like rugs. Back then the balls were very heavy and the fields were terrible to control the ball in many cases.

He literally had 99 on almost every stat lol and some people can't grasp why he was the best it's not that complicated lol

WTF??? This man's skills are MIND BLOWING. The way he passes the ball under the defenders' legs???? I am like whattttt???? The way he played is just unbelievable. 😳😳😳😳😳😳

Pelé was the Genius of the Genius, The Master of the Soccer, The Eternal GOAT!!!!

Pele is the best ever no doubt. He plays with the two legs as if it was of absolute no consequence to him. You literally cant tell when hes gonna move or pass. Plus he was strong and big.

Simply the GOAT

Foi o mais completo tecnicamente e o maior vencedor de toda a história, celebridade mundial numa época em que não haviam redes sociais. Foi o maior atleta de todos os tempos pelo que fez dentro e fora dos campos, parando uma guerra na África inclusive!

Complete player, excellent dribbler, finisher with both legs, header, free-kick taker, strong, fast, perfect ball control, good pass, 3 times world champion, one of them at 17 scoring 2 goals in the final, all of this in terrible shape conditions, horrible fields, heavy ball, terrible boots with iron teeth, heavy uniforms and at a time when there were no cards. Undoubtedly the greatest of all time, he shaped football "before Pelé" and "after Pelé". To complete, he was elected the athlete of the century. GOAT, eternal King. 👑

pelé was so complete that he kicked with both legs with strength and precision

The king Pelé!!! Best football player of all time.

Hey, man, great reaction to an awesome player. Pele is before my time as well, but I've always regarded him as the G.O.A.T. Btw, I believe he scored over 1200 goals. Also, as I understand it, he played mostly during the time when Brazil was under a dictatorship, and the dictator who worshiped young Pele, prohibited him (and other Brazilian players) from playing professionally outside of Brazil, so that's the main reason that he did not play professionally in Europe. However, his Brazilian club toured worldwide and played in international tournaments, and they usually won the World Club titles and defeated all the top teams in Europe with Pele putting on a master class. So, yes, while he didn't play for European teams, his Brazilian club dominated European teams. There's a 2017 (or 2016) Hollywood movie that used to be on Netflix about young Pele called "Pele: Birth Of A Legend". The movie focuses on Pele from when he was around 8 years old to 17 years old and shows his journey from a poor boy with humble beginnings, who then led Brazil to its first-ever World Cup title when he was only 17. To this day, Pele is the youngest person ever to score in a World Cup...the youngest ever to have a hat trick in the World Cup...and the only player to lead his team to 3 World Cup titles. Anyway, GREAT MOVIE....you should definitely check it out. If it's not still on Netflix, it's somewhere on Amazon Prime or something. It's worth a watch.

Que bestia el tipo . Una máquina , no hay otra descripción . En el minuto 20:18 el defensa con el número 3 , después que pelé lo destroza y marca el gol , lo aplaude . Increíble .

Many of today's footie techniques and skills were invented by this man. He is the Father of Modern Football.

Nós temos somente 30% da carreira do Pelé gravada em vídeo. Por exemplo: ele batia freekicks de várias formas e esse vídeo não mostra embora esteja registrado. Apesar de escassos, há muitos vídeos melhores que esse na internet sobre o Pelé.

Na boa o Messi tem que nascer 15 vezes para começarmos a comparar com Pelé que foi um jogador completo.

The GOAT, The LEGEND, PELÉ!

Very insightful, intelligent, and respectful reaction. You've just earned another subscriber. Now you can see why we always maintain Pele was the best. He was a footballing machine.

3 copas do mundo (58,62,70) Simplesmente o maior da história do futebol King PELÉ 😎⚽🇧🇷👑

Quem é Messi quem é Maradona perto do Pelé irmão, você está vendo o rei!

That goal @24:04 is one of my favourite goals ever. From 1958, his second goal in the world cup final when he was only 17 years old. Absolutely crazy gifted. Even though he was 5 foot 8 he could outjump any defender, the power he had was unbelievable, his touch was incredible (the most important skill in my opinion), his footballing IQ was genius levels, and I think I remember hearing once he could do the 100m in about 11 seconds. Even by today's football standards that's pretty good, you won't find many players breaking 11 seconds. At one point you were like "what's the keeper doing there?" They didn't know what to do back then. Pele was so good and creative, they had to rethink how to do stuff in order to stop him. The only way in the 1962 and 1966 world cups teams managed to stop him was to hack his legs and take him out via injury.

Pelé was the most complete football player in history. He kicked with both legs perfectly, had an absurd impulse to head the ball, had an incomparable control of the ball - the ball "glued" to his chest - often doing it in mid-air, he knew how to score goals and assisted his colleagues, he was fast, lethal and insinuating and even as a goalkeeper he acted and acted with excellence. And at a time when the ball and clothing were heavier, the boot was anatomically inferior, the football fields were inferior, he played most of the time when there were neither yellow nor red cards, that is, the beating was constant. That's why Pelé is the King of football, THE GOAT! After him comes the other stars!

Pelé é o melhor. Porque resume todos os craques em um só

Na época do Pelé o futebol mais competitivo era no Brasil e não na Europa, os times brasileiros venciam de forma fácil os times europeus nessa época, até os anos 90 no Brasil se praticava o melhor futebol

Siano beati gli occhi che hanno. Visto Pelé giocare a calcio e le orecchie che hanno ascoltato raccontare le sue incredibili ed impensabili e trascendenti gesta buona salute a Pelé ed a tutti

Nothing to say, just pelé

A genialidade nos passes, dibles, conduzir a bola com a perna direita e esquerda no mesmo jeito, cabeceio incrível, impulsão, domínio, controle de bola, visão de jogo, chute com a perna direita e esquerda praticamente com a mesma qualidade, velocidade, porte físico etc... Enfim a marcação poderia imaginar o que ele poderia fazer! Mais quando pensasse Pelé já teria feito. Imagina a marcação? O desespero kkkkkk Só restaria bater e rezar para que ele não tivesse em um dia bom...

The best player of all time, period. He was complete and the First tô invent the moves today players use.

El hombre que cambió el football el mejor de la historia.

Pelé redefined football and is the father of modern football... He did what no one did before him and what is still inspiring the new generation. Messi never added anything new to football everything he is doing Pelé did it before. Maradona was a monster yet he bowed down to Pelé. A GOAT is the one that redefined the game not those who come play the game the way the GOAT defined it! And the Pitches and conditions were bad at that time as you said but also if Etoo and Beletolli are crying about racism today imagine being recognized at that time while being black , he had to be SO GOOD TO A POINT WHERE THEY COULD NOT DENY IT

And 70% of his games weren't recorded or the footage is lost forever. All you just saw is just 30% of his playing time. Let that sink in.

PELE is a genius like no other. He gathering all the gifts os all other historical players. KING EVER

We have only 30% Of his career recorded... Imagine his best momments, just imagine.

My dad is Pelé’s age and grew up in Rio de Janeiro, so I’ve always known about Pelé, and even saw him play once in Dallas for New York Cosmos. I’ve never seen a player in any sport who was so far ahead of everyone else. He had his own rhythm that made it seem that everyone else was playing in slow motion, giving him more time to react as defenders slid by him. He gave hope to poor kids in Brazil that it was possible to escape the favelas, always had a smile, sat with kings and presidents and they were lucky to have him there, was the best ambassador the sport and Brazil could have, and is responsible for the USA having a league, a competitive men’s team, a dominating women’s team, and now hosting their second World Cup. He’s the forever King.

Pele seems like he scored in every single game he played ....R.I.P. King

Pelé is incomparable, complete, the greatest of all... Rest in peace and thank you for so much magic in football!

He started to play for Santos when he was 16 years old and in first season scored 58 goals !!! 😮and get invited for the World Cup with only 17 and win it scoring two goals in the final !!! Incredible quality

Meraviglioso unico il più grande di sempre ! Non c'è altro da dire ; se esiste la perfezione ci è andato molto vicino. In assoluto il più forte di tutti i tempi , chi non lo ammette è uno sciocco un inconsapevole .

Its not just because we watched him play alive, it is the fact that he did 90% of the stuff that makes good offensive players nowadays before everybody else. Messi, Ronaldo, Zidane, Zico...they all learned everything with someone who learned everything by Pelé. That's the reason he is the greatest of all times.

O Pelé é o maior e melhor jogador da historia do futebol. Torci na final da copa para a Argentina, por ser Sul americano, e gostar muito do Messi, ele merece.

Guys we should not argue this stuff. Pele is the greatest, you don't need to be born in his generation to know that. Look at every player you want to put up there and see if Pele is missing anything. And he was there for the ambassadorship of the sport so what else can you as of a person. The coaches of today teach principles and skills they learnt from people who copied Pele. Add to that that the sport wasn't even as lucrative as it is now but he help to bring it to a money spinning status with his work. Let's no disrespect him by comparing him to anyone. Not even being a Messi fan should blur one's vision cos he pales in both pace, dribbles, dexterity and intelligence with the ball. The younger generation is just fortunate to seem to have it all now: tutelage, fame, money, glamour. He's the greatest without sentiments

Inacreditável não é? Mas foi verdadeiro! Incrível! Rei Pelé 🇧🇷

THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME IS PELE

pelé inventou, por isso é gênio. os outros apenas tentam reproduzir

Obrigada rapaz por valorizar o nosso rei do futebol Pelé, Ronaldinho gaúcho é o melhor depois do Pelé na minha humilde opinião. Fica com Deus e obrigada!! 👏👍🤜🤛🤝

Pele was one in a lifetime! You’d have to get Messi Cristiano Ronaldo Neymar and mbape together to get half of what he was

@BANGSO I did not watch Pele play in his era but he is the Undisputed GOAT based on not just his achievements in soccer but what he also did for the game outside the pitch....He brought it to the entire world and made it the beautiful Game.... Close to 1300 goals, 7 Balon Dors (please google and check this in case you do not know about this) plus 3 World Cups to his name...no one has that much achievement...add to that winning 2 world cups back to back plus youngest to play and score in a World Cup final at age 17.... Noone in this era has that much world cups which is the highest achievement in soccer...that on its own should end the GOAT debate unless people just wanna argue for the sake of it and don't want to use facts to get to the truth!!! And he achieved all this when the game was not like today where players are protected strongly...the pitches were not so good....no technology to enhance player performance and the footballs used were not the same like now....etc.... against all those disadvantages he still managed to do his magic and win 4 out of 4 world Cups he played in.....no one has and maybe will ever achieve that! If this is not GOAT status I donnot what is unless one is a hater!

Dud...you see Messi playing now....but your eyes also can see what the video is showing: Pelé did absolutelly EVERYTHING Messi (and everybody) did, but 60 years before. You yourself said: "Equipment, field, ball, everything was worse back then" (the defenders could basically kill the atackers with violence, there were no yellow and red cards back then).

PELÉ TINHA UM PREPARO FÍSICO IMPRESSIONANTE ERA CHAMADO DE PUMA NEGRO NA AMÉRICA DO SUL.ERA BOM COM PÉ ESQUERDO, DIREITO, DE CABEÇA E TINHA UMA VELOCIDADE IMPRESSIONANTE.

The king. The man who changed the game. The one and only! O REI 👑

Pele invented the modern football ⚽️, everyskills we see today from all the great players he did it before and all got it from him .that's why he's the GOAT 🐐.Messi is overrated

The King!

Pelé revolucionou o futebol, Messi não revolucionou nada

THE KING PELÉ⚽️WAS COMPLETE.
