“We won the World Cup and I think in my life in sport, that is the pinnacle, no doubt. I said, ‘Santos are champions, I am going to retire. Then I said, ‘No! I am going to play the World Cup. This will be my last World Cup, may God give me one more time the gift to play good.”
Pele scored a hat trick in his first World Cup in 1958 against France, yet what he did in Mexico City a dozen years later solidified him as a football god.
At the age of 29, Pele achieved the hat trick for World Cup titles, winning his third overall against Italy at the Estadio Azteca in front of more than 100,000 fans. Once Mexico was eliminated, the entire country cheered on the great legend himself, who scored one of his most famous goals at the 18-minute mark.
