In the 1958 world cup, Pele was 17 yrs old and playing in a team that was dominating. His goals came in the sf and final when Brazil was winning comfortably and the demoralised opposition didnt want to mark a 17 yr old. But what happened in the next 12 years is grossly misunderstood. Against popular belief, Pele actually didnt have much of an impact on international football. He got injured in the first game in 1962 world cup and didnt play the rest of the games. Brazil won the world cup without him, just goes to show that that Brazilian team was special and Pele just benefited from playing alongside great players. Then in 1966 world cup, Brazil got eliminated at the group stage. Yes the great Pele couldnt even get his national team to clear the group stage. After 1966, Pele dejected at not being able to replicate his (fortuitous) heroics of 1958 decided to retire. Then in 1970, when Pele saw that Brazil had again managed to build a great team consisting of the Jairzinho, Tostao, Rivelino and Gerson, he jumped at the opportunity and joined the national team again. In 1970, he scored goals against relatively weaker teams like Romania and Czech and then didnt do anything in the crucial KO matches. People unnecessarily hyped his every move like the famous rounding the keeper in the sf where instead of scoring an easy goal he tried to outsmart the keeper and ended up missing an open goal. It was the other attacking players mentioned abovewho dragged Brazil to the final. And then in the final like his protegee Ronaldo, he scored an easy tapin from 2 yards (notice how the defender marking him didnt even jump). Brazil won that game 4-1, I urge you to watch the other goals in that match, specially the screamer from outside the box and you'll realize how Pele again hogged the limelight for nothing (just like Ronaldo would RM while Ramos, Bale scored crucial, classier goals). So to summarize, Pele got lucky in the 1958 world cup, didnt do anything for the next 12 years (supposedly his prime) and then played in a great Brazilian team in 1970 and hogged the limelight. If he is regarded as the GOAT by some for these world cup wins, people need to check their facts.
