What a complete player he was.... He had everything, like, dribbling, passing, vision, play making, leadership qualities, shooting, skills, ball control.... He truly was the best....
Imagine you are some English player who just used to kick the ball deep and then hope to score a header and you started to ser this fucker move and dribble like that…
In Brazil, Pelé is a synonym for being the best at what you do....the best engineer is the.Pelé of engineers...the best doctor is the Pelé of doctors.....he is someone so good that he doesn't there is a comparison
Depends on how you define greatest . If we are talking about in terms of impact, no other footballer ever had a bigger on football than Pele. He changed football forever. Without him , football would have never been the most popular sport in the world. So yeah, in terms of impact and influence on the game . There is no other player that even come close to him and he easily is the greatest. But if we are talking about quality of a footballer, I would say Messi is better. Maybe even Ronaldo. Football has only gotten difficult after Pele's reign. Scoring goals has gotten even harder thanks to defender being generally more skilled and how advance the tactics in football has gotten. Despite that, Messi and Ronaldo destroyed modern defenses and tactics. They pretty much made it look like they were scoring goals for fun. Not to mention, Messi is also a playermaker. Even if he never scored that many goals, people still would have considered him as one of the best of all time just because of his playmaking skills. His impressive goal scoring numbers are just bit of an overkill .
@chickenabuser5474 The word greatest is quite self-explanatory. Frankly, the word incomparable is most appropriate, as simply put, there is no adequate comparative measure that can be used to realistically compare the game as it was then, to what it is now. And easier does not even stand a chance to factor in...different everything, just the ball alone they used then would break most of today's players ankles, except for Zlatan and a few others of that ilk.There is PELE and then there is everyone else. Three World Cups...absolutely nothing surpasses that, and will never.It is okay to build on and make better the foundation set. PELE is that foundation. The greatest footballer ever defined.
@@chickenabuser5474 there is a reason messi and ronaldo started winning the balloon d'or everytime after all major players were either too old or retired. they would never do that back at the time.
@@gabrielesantucci6189incredibly ignorant comment, every player from back then wouldn't even get into the 2nd division. Cmon now a lot of professionals were smokers, do you seriously believe they would stand a chance today? No shot.
@@tano1670if they played today they would also get the benefits of modern tactics, diets and training regiments. World class players in any era would be world class players in every era.
The greatest ever. The originator. He broke the ground for eveyone else. And he did it all on pitches like surface of the moon, wearing boots like bowling shoes, and with a ball like a rock.
This is truly SCARY!! The things that were shown by the recent players look almost like exact copies of things Pele did!! Absolute madness!! There will never be anything like Pelé
Believe me, if a player emerged in modern times with the same talent and skill that Pelé had, there would be no more debate. the football world would just stop and watch
Guys say that he wouldn't even play in modern day 2nd division leagues. I like to see today's modern players play in conditions where the ball is rock hard, with poor medical facilities and little protection from referees and still be able to thrive as they do now.
@zariflasker8006 bros going everywhere trying to downplay anyone but his daddy pessi 😂 Cr7 🐐 and Pele 🐐 between these 2. Pessi is nothing, never even played at best league with an EPL team, always needed insane teams 😂
It's incredible how people talk about Pelé being someone "basic" in football, and many say that he is basically nothing compared to current players, or how all he does are simple plays. And then we look at ourselves from the point of view of Pelé's time, field and pitch much worse than today, ball heavier and much more difficult to play, and he still did/invented dribbles that are still done today, basically creating creating several of the dribbles current versions (or at least early versions of them). Messi, Ronaldo, Neymar, among others, are not true stars, but Pelé is the king and was the one who revolutionized football.
Pele playing in any era would still be the best player. And when he played he was not protected like the players are today he got kicked all over the pitch in some games.
At that time there were defenders who were real butchers, they came in to break their legs. My team's biggest idol, Reinaldo Lima, who was an ace, had to retire at 28 years of age because he had to have both meniscuses removed from his knees, such was the brutality of the defenders at the time. Anyone who says it's more difficult to play today doesn't know how defenders back then treated attackers. And another thing, Pelé would work in today's times, because he was strong, he was muscular, not even the cowardice of defenders could stop him.
@zariflasker8006 Fallacy. What today's forwards do, Pelé was already doing back then. If Pelé played today, he would have the same preparation that today's players have, so he would be better and adapted to what players do today. Pelé played against the best defenders of the time and did well. See what Pelé did with Beckenbauer. Refuted. ua-cam.com/video/nEAU4-zRT88/v-deo.html
@zariflasker8006 Ehm, might I add that offside rule is used AGAINST attackers??? BTW present offside rule had to make sure when the ball is passed, the receiver has to have atleast one opposition player in front of him, back then, the attacker had to have two defenders in front of him to not be offside fouled....
Just remember A leather ball Crappy equipment and fields And almost no modern fisioterapy. Imagine this Guy in Modern Times... He was the GOAT! HE WAS THE TRULLY ONLY KING OF THE FOOTBALL
Seriously, most people don’t realize the reality of these little details that make the biggest of differences. Plus the game was much more physical and difficult back then anyways… (Had to play through brutal fouls, the game now is so delicate in comparison)
@zariflasker8006 football has evolved into football, also the offside rule has always been in football with slight changes and tweaks here and there. Physicality! The 60s to 90 were far more physical than now, were are in the weakest era of defenders in football history.
Pele Is Absolutely Absurd I Mean, Most Skills Seen Today Originated From This One Man! Its Just Amazing To See Such A Gifted Footballer Flourish In His Time.
It’s funny that everyone agrees the World Cup is the biggest trophy in football and yet some people say CR7 who has never won it is the goat or Messi who has won only 1 is the goat. When this legend won 3 WCs, and it would have been 4 if defenders at the 1966 WC didn’t target him and injure him. He’s the original and true goat no matter what anyone says.
World cup is indeed the most prestigues Tournament in football but not a defining factor when thinking about the GOAT. World Cup is a few game tournament which favors the big footballing nations. Also one advantge back then was that the pressure of winning wasn't the same as it is now especially with the social media. Messi is the goat for me because he has done it on every stage possbile, EU and for Argentina, well not only those reasons, Messi seems like he genianly is a team player even tho he has the ability to be the most selfish player. Willing passser goes along way for me.
@@Nerviniex How many chances did Messi need to win his one and only World Cup?? 5!! And at what age?? On penalty shoot-outs at that..

@@bekisiphotshili2566 Are u stupid? What does it matter at what age somebody wins something? :D Messi is old and slow? So what?

The doubts have been cleared. Did all that 50-60 years ago. But also consider inferior training methods and facilities, post match recovery, diet, sports science, pitch, type of ball, boots. Definitely the best footballer ever. God's biggest gift to football.
@Coldnma Exactly, it burst into huge popularity all thanks to Pele and Brazil. Even if Messi or Ronaldo never came into the picture, it will still be okay. But Pele will always be different.
Y aún hay gente que se atreve a decir que Maradona y Messi son mejores por numeritos y trofeos (Algunos de ellos muuuuuy polémicos)... Pelé el más grande.
My guy people litteraly say Pele is better than Diego cause he won more trophies and scored more goals when infact anything Pele could do Diego could do but better, Pele is King for sure but Diego is God
@@johnrockyryan Yeah Diego is a Great player of one the better players of all time, Diego is the representation of Argentina meanwhile, Pelé is the representation of Football.
He was even good as a professional goalkeeper when he played as a goalkeeper, defender, midfield, wing and every position you can imagine as a football player and also he can jump more than many basketball players (48 inch , 1.22 meters) , and can run faster than many athletes (100 meters 11seconds)
Crucially, all of Pele's skill was done with effect in mind. None of it was for show. Genius. At 1:00 Lucas achieves nothing except admiration for his individual skill, whereas Pele takes the man out of the game and makes a pass to a team mate to boot. There's a difference.
Im from argentina im 44 years old. Didnt see much of pele but what i saw make think he is the best of all time. A lot of people think the same here but its a social suicide to saying. 🤗
Pelé ha fatto tutto meglio di tutti e per più volte di tutti inoltre ci sono cose che Pelé ha fatto e che a tutti oggi nessuno riesce a fare ciao dalla Sicilia Italia da un italiano
Also today we already know everything by internet, so things that we see once we can repeat untill we understand how it works, 30 years ago people could say that only blessed one could rewind things on video recorder when they luckly had tape, but when he was playing barely few people were blessed to see things once on TV live in black and white colors with bad quality, thats even more amazing
Ronaldo's no look pass was utterly pointless with no one around him and just for show, whereas Pele's genuinely threw the defenders off and created an attack
I’m always gonna give the original more credit than the copy . There might have one or two guys this did one of these things first . But he did them all the time on a regular basis . The first complete footballer . Supremely skilled on every level of the game .
Remember,70% of Pele’s career wasn’t filmed.All These were when he was gonna retire.The only player who could be compared to him in my opinion is prime R9
EXACTLY. There's so much of his game that we'll never get to watch, and still the plays that were recorded are enough to impress the hell out of us. Imagine if each one of his matches was filmed like nowadays
The youth can shower praise on Messi and CR7 all they want just as long as they learn and respect that Pele did it first, he brought unprecedented skills to the world, when the game was like kicking a bowling ball with bare feet and every defender was a murderer on parole. The 17 year old schoolboy Pele was sent on a mission in 1958 to win the World Cup for Brazil and he succeeded spectacularly in humiliating the big stars of world football. Not even Messi or CR7 made it to the World stage until they were old enough to look after themselves.
1:55 And that was an mistake by péle but later now it's recognised as a skill. We have to admit that every thing that he does later got recognition as a beautiful skill. Really true Brazilian and master of the game 🎯
For those of you kids out there who really think Ronaldo and Messi are the best, don’t you forget who they learned from, Pelé is the eternal GOAT of the beautiful game 🇧🇷🐐⚽️
I was born after Pele retired, and I've never seen a video of one single player that did all those dribbles, passes, scores, all thw while with magical skills. Maradona had a lot of skills, but i don't see him as complete as Pele. Messi is a different style altogether, extremely skillful but not a flashy dribbler. Maybe Ronaldinho is the closest one i can remember, but still not the same. Maybe i am missing someone.
Thanks for share Pelé Edson Arantes Do Nascimento O' Rei Pelé the creator and and inventor of the soccer play, My Best wishes from Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Guerrero México to all the people that we love the fútbol ⚽⚽⚽
This is why I still, and probably always will, consider Pele to be the GOAT of football! 👑 I value trailblazers in a sport above anything else, because they created magic out of nowhere whereas players today have the benefit of always having more blueprints to look at. And that's not even mentioning all the insane physiological progress we've made to make it easier for players.
Eu não perdia um jogo fo Santos Futebol Clube nos anos de 1960/1970,apesar de torcer para o São Paulo ia ver o Santos jogar só por causa do Pelé. Como jogava..!
The GOAT. O maior de todos os tempos. Um gênio que estava 30 ou 40 anos a frente do seu tempo. Jogador completo, fazia tudo, inventou tudo que fazem hoje em dia. Não tem nem como discutir, Pelé é e sempre será o rei do futebol.
1124 gols, 362 assistências, 3 copas do mundo... O cara fez a camisa 10 ser a camisa do craque, fez o cartao amarelo e vermelho serem introduzidos, criou a lei pele, q da poder ao jogador decidir sobre sua carreira, entre outro tantos feitos... Rei é pouco, o cara foi Deus do futebol.
Incredible collecton, thanks! I think Pele is not respected enough because he played in an era we have only rare and low quality footage from. You made excellent job to compensate that.
Pelé was considered a national treasure here in Brazil by the government. No other player in history had that kind of prestige, not even Ronaldo, Ronaldinho or Romario.
The most incredible thing is how naturally King Pelé did this...it looks like he was walking on the beach, so calmly!!! O Mais Incrível é a naturalidade que o Rei Pelé fazia isso...parece que estava andando na praia, com toda calma!!!
Pelé was the absolute GOAT, better than Messi and Ronaldo, thanks for the respect for the brazilian legend. É o Brasil né pai🇧🇷🇧🇷💚💛💙 5 copas, melhores jogadores de todos os tempos🤷♂️🤷♂️
Shoes were crap, the field was crap, the balls were heavier and lopsided and harder to bend. Defenders were allowed to be much more aggressive and hacked and tackled regularly. Pele began playing with a mango in the jungle…
I have been watching World Cups since 1970 as a boy, and I have always considered Pele to be the GOAT. Not just because of his skills and performance, and not just because he revolutionized the sport, but because he also lead Brasil to THREE World Cups. Yeah count that on your hand Ronaldo and Messi fans - THREE. However, I have also watched Messi and Ronaldo for the past 15 years to 20 years and always felt that what was missing in their application to be GOAT was a World Cup. The 2022 victory for Argentina changed the calculus big time. I think I am now willing to pass the title to Messi - an extraordinary playmaker and goal scorer, but also now a leader at the highest level. What the younger generations today don't seem to understand is that there is always a Johnny-come-lately great player, and there always will be. But the question that defines greatness is leadership. And is sports, that means leading your nation to victory. Nations League victories don't count in the same way. Money buys those victories. World Cups are only won with what a country has. To find glory, extraordinary leadership is required, and Pele had it in spades. Michael Jordan had it, Wayne Gretzky had it, Diego Maradona had it, and Pele always had it. And yes you all can opine about that's not a fair criteria because its not Ronaldo's fault Portugal has never been good enough. That may be true, but this is yardstick by which the GOAT of any sport must be judged. If Ronaldo defined greatness, he would have found a way. It's not like Portugal is not a strong footballing nation. Championships at the highest level of one's sport is an essential criteria. All things considered in 2024: 1. Messi, 2. Pele, 3. Maradona, 4. Ronaldo.

My guy people litteraly say Pele is better than Diego cause he won more trophies and scored more goals when infact anything Pele could do Diego could do but better, Pele is King for sure but Diego is God
I'm one of them. Maradona!
@@johnrockyryan Yeah Diego is a Great player of one the better players of all time, Diego is the representation of Argentina meanwhile, Pelé is the representation of Football.
🐐🇧🇷👑 The best and greatest in history, Penaldo and Pessi fans can cry
👇
Pravo! 👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
He was even good as a professional goalkeeper when he played as a goalkeeper, defender, midfield, wing and every position you can imagine as a football player and also he can jump more than many basketball players (48 inch , 1.22 meters) , and can run faster than many athletes (100 meters 11seconds)
Even Konami jealous of him
One of the greatest athletes of all time and certainly the Football GOAT.
Man was simply black panther
What are you talking about, lol??? He never played as a goalkeeper or a defender... Also his jumping and speed weren't that impressive...
@@segetbossyes he played in some matches when goalkeeper couldnt
He is the king, he is the football, he is the goat, he is PELÉ 👑
Pelé - GOAT - Rei - Futebol - Melhor de todos os tempos! ⚽🤴🏿🏆🇧🇷👑🇧🇷⚽🤴🏿
People don't understand that he's the GOAT bcuz of his skill. He is the GOAT because he literally created what we all consider as skill
Inagine Pele in modern times 😮
GOAT 🔥
this guy was the king of football
Crucially, all of Pele's skill was done with effect in mind. None of it was for show. Genius. At 1:00 Lucas achieves nothing except admiration for his individual skill, whereas Pele takes the man out of the game and makes a pass to a team mate to boot. There's a difference.
Im from argentina im 44 years old. Didnt see much of pele but what i saw make think he is the best of all time. A lot of people think the same here but its a social suicide to saying. 🤗
😂
La mayoría no piensa eso. Fue otra época y lo que se ve también lo hacen otros...
I think Maradona was much better than Messi, but cant say it also.
Pele' is the GOAT of football forever. Nobody can come anywhere close to him. No debate, no doubts, no arguments.
Pelé es el mejor, el estaba adelantado a su época
Oh how I wish Pele and other great players who peaked pre 1990s could play in todt's era of football. Theyd be unstoppable
Pele peaked ore 1970s😅
@@SarcasticBeingYes60s
Pele was like if every great player was combined into one. He had it all!
Greatest Of All Time for a reason
Pelé ha fatto tutto meglio di tutti e per più volte di tutti inoltre ci sono cose che Pelé ha fatto e che a tutti oggi nessuno riesce a fare ciao dalla Sicilia Italia da un italiano
Pelé foi a profecia dos jogadores de hoje.
Remember he did this w a leather ball, crappy equipment, on a crappy field while literally gettinf assaulted every match.
He also did it in the 1970s where the balls and boots were closer to what it is today
And almost no card system through out majority of His career.
Also today we already know everything by internet, so things that we see once we can repeat untill we understand how it works, 30 years ago people could say that only blessed one could rewind things on video recorder when they luckly had tape, but when he was playing barely few people were blessed to see things once on TV live in black and white colors with bad quality, thats even more amazing
@@henry247in the 70s he was in "retired" form.
@@henry247 and he also did it in the fucking wc in fucking 1958 as a fucking 17 yo.
There is a word to describe when God decides to play football. This word is Pelé.
Ronaldo's no look pass was utterly pointless with no one around him and just for show, whereas Pele's genuinely threw the defenders off and created an attack
Lol what a jealous guy. Do u watch football on Yt? U just judged Ronaldo for a clip.
@@pyaesone7300 pele is better than messi and ronaldo
@@pyaesone7300 As I knew ronaldo fans are the most insecure people out there
U trippin bruuuh@@MUZ4_ED1TZ
@pyaesone7300 He did not judge Cristiano. He judged that specific pass.
Pelé é o Rei do Futebol. Infelizmente muitos hoje estão desfazendo do mito que foi o Pelé. Que vídeo sensacional..
He was at least the mind of a player who played elite tier in 90's but man's career started in 50's and ended at early 70's. Definetly genius.
I’m always gonna give the original more credit than the copy . There might have one or two guys this did one of these things first . But he did them all the time on a regular basis . The first complete footballer . Supremely skilled on every level of the game .
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏽
Remember,70% of Pele’s career wasn’t filmed.All These were when he was gonna retire.The only player who could be compared to him in my opinion is prime R9
Id argue other players like Messi, Garrincha, Di Stefano, Puskas and Maradona come close
EXACTLY. There's so much of his game that we'll never get to watch, and still the plays that were recorded are enough to impress the hell out of us. Imagine if each one of his matches was filmed like nowadays
We have the privilege to see PELÉ and SENNA, two Brazilian Legends!
Pelé invented the most marvelous way to play football. He was a genius.
Pele is the GOAT of all GOATS..,🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👑👑👑👑👑👑👑🇧🇷
I'm just here to appreciate your effort in making the video! Thank you!
The youth can shower praise on Messi and CR7 all they want just as long as they learn and respect that Pele did it first, he brought unprecedented skills to the world, when the game was like kicking a bowling ball with bare feet and every defender was a murderer on parole. The 17 year old schoolboy Pele was sent on a mission in 1958 to win the World Cup for Brazil and he succeeded spectacularly in humiliating the big stars of world football. Not even Messi or CR7 made it to the World stage until they were old enough to look after themselves.
Pelé, simplesmente o rei do futebol brasileiro e do mundo 🇧🇷👑
Pele makes every star look like his children
No doubt the best soccer player ever.
Inspiração pra todos os jogadores do mundo... Pelé eterno
1:55 And that was an mistake by péle but later now it's recognised as a skill. We have to admit that every thing that he does later got recognition as a beautiful skill. Really true Brazilian and master of the game 🎯
incredible PELE ፔሴ
Insane edit, insane clips!! Pele he really was a player ahead of his time.
For those of you kids out there who really think Ronaldo and Messi are the best, don’t you forget who they learned from, Pelé is the eternal GOAT of the beautiful game 🇧🇷🐐⚽️
@zariflasker8006 Here we go, bro only mentions his daddy pessi 🤣
I am a diehard Brazil and Pele🐐 fan I agree 100% well said bro
@TheOwnerOfRealMadriDammit kid. Have u even watched a game of football that was played in the 60s or 70s. U only know how to lick Messi's butt😂😂😂
@TheOwnerOfRealMadriDammit kid. Have u even watched a game of football that was played in the 60s or 70s. U only know how to lick Messi's butt😂😂😂
@TheOwnerOfRealMadri I had a fucking stroke reading this. Do u even know how to write in English?
Thanks for the video. I imagine that was time-consuming edit all these videos
I was born after Pele retired, and I've never seen a video of one single player that did all those dribbles, passes, scores, all thw while with magical skills. Maradona had a lot of skills, but i don't see him as complete as Pele. Messi is a different style altogether, extremely skillful but not a flashy dribbler. Maybe Ronaldinho is the closest one i can remember, but still not the same. Maybe i am missing someone.
Pele was to Football as Jimi Hendrix was to the Electric guitar. There will be no one like them ever again.
G.O.A.T
Todos os jogadores CRAQUES JA IMITAVAM PELÉ
Well done 👍 Pelé you are the best ♥️
Thanks for share Pelé Edson Arantes Do Nascimento O' Rei Pelé the creator and and inventor of the soccer play, My Best wishes from Ixtapa Zihuatanejo Guerrero México to all the people that we love the fútbol ⚽⚽⚽
This is why I still, and probably always will, consider Pele to be the GOAT of football! 👑
I value trailblazers in a sport above anything else, because they created magic out of nowhere whereas players today have the benefit of always having more blueprints to look at. And that's not even mentioning all the insane physiological progress we've made to make it easier for players.
Eu não perdia um jogo fo Santos Futebol Clube nos anos de 1960/1970,apesar de torcer para o São Paulo ia ver o Santos jogar só por causa do Pelé. Como jogava..!
Pele is the greatest footballer ever and it is not even close
The Best Brazilian, And One Of The Only Brazialians Who Didn't Slack Off
I will argue Garrincha is better, but your second point is why he isnt
The GOAT. O maior de todos os tempos. Um gênio que estava 30 ou 40 anos a frente do seu tempo. Jogador completo, fazia tudo, inventou tudo que fazem hoje em dia. Não tem nem como discutir, Pelé é e sempre será o rei do futebol.
That no look travela pass was shockingly good
Bro was the definition of "ahead of his time"
3 WORLD CUPS!!!!
I said: 3!!!!!!!
Imagine this in modern soccer.
1124 gols, 362 assistências, 3 copas do mundo... O cara fez a camisa 10 ser a camisa do craque, fez o cartao amarelo e vermelho serem introduzidos, criou a lei pele, q da poder ao jogador decidir sobre sua carreira, entre outro tantos feitos... Rei é pouco, o cara foi Deus do futebol.
The GOAT! Rip legend!
Incredible collecton, thanks!
I think Pele is not respected enough because he played in an era we have only rare and low quality footage from.
You made excellent job to compensate that.
I Strongly agree this was a great man
2:12 Carlo Parola (Juventus player) did it first, Genuary 15th 1950, Fiorentina-Juventus. And he did it while defending.
In 1932, Leônidas da Silva scored with a bicycle kick in a game on Rio de Janeiro
Pelé was considered a national treasure here in Brazil by the government. No other player in history had that kind of prestige, not even Ronaldo, Ronaldinho or Romario.
The most incredible thing is how naturally King Pelé did this...it looks like he was walking on the beach, so calmly!!!
O Mais Incrível é a naturalidade que o Rei Pelé fazia isso...parece que estava andando na praia, com toda calma!!!
Com a bola pesando 5 kilos, chuteiras de pano e campos horriveis...Pelé, o Rei do futebol.
Pelé was the absolute GOAT, better than Messi and Ronaldo, thanks for the respect for the brazilian legend. É o Brasil né pai🇧🇷🇧🇷💚💛💙 5 copas, melhores jogadores de todos os tempos🤷♂️🤷♂️
Pelé was modern football, before modern football
Great video. I'm glad there are still lucid people talking about football (soccer) on the internet.
Beyond the vision, is there anything to be said about the equipment ? Like... It was way harder to execute back then ?
Yes. Everything was harder before.
Shoes were crap, the field was crap, the balls were heavier and lopsided and harder to bend. Defenders were allowed to be much more aggressive and hacked and tackled regularly. Pele began playing with a mango in the jungle…
Pele playing like this at his time was like a driving Tesla car in the 60’s
I have been watching World Cups since 1970 as a boy, and I have always considered Pele to be the GOAT. Not just because of his skills and performance, and not just because he revolutionized the sport, but because he also lead Brasil to THREE World Cups. Yeah count that on your hand Ronaldo and Messi fans - THREE. However, I have also watched Messi and Ronaldo for the past 15 years to 20 years and always felt that what was missing in their application to be GOAT was a World Cup. The 2022 victory for Argentina changed the calculus big time. I think I am now willing to pass the title to Messi - an extraordinary playmaker and goal scorer, but also now a leader at the highest level. What the younger generations today don't seem to understand is that there is always a Johnny-come-lately great player, and there always will be. But the question that defines greatness is leadership. And is sports, that means leading your nation to victory. Nations League victories don't count in the same way. Money buys those victories. World Cups are only won with what a country has. To find glory, extraordinary leadership is required, and Pele had it in spades. Michael Jordan had it, Wayne Gretzky had it, Diego Maradona had it, and Pele always had it. And yes you all can opine about that's not a fair criteria because its not Ronaldo's fault Portugal has never been good enough. That may be true, but this is yardstick by which the GOAT of any sport must be judged. If Ronaldo defined greatness, he would have found a way. It's not like Portugal is not a strong footballing nation. Championships at the highest level of one's sport is an essential criteria.
All things considered in 2024: 1. Messi, 2. Pele, 3. Maradona, 4. Ronaldo.
Every single move we know today, Pelé did it first
Pelé and Johan Cruyff are the G.O.A.T.S, they revolutionized football
RIP PELE SIR. WE MISS U A LOT ❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
