If it wasn't for Pele we wouldn't be here talking about football; Football at his time was obviously different, playing against clubs while at the National team was common place. Friendlies were never truly friendly. The man is a LEGEND!

"The world would be a much better if we could compare each other less, and start admiring each other more" Pele
Well Pele has compared Di Stefano, Maradona and Messi. And said if you can't say who is Argentina's best player how you can say some of them is the greatest...meaning he thinks he is the best.

Pele is so good that people underplay him and insult him. We should however recognize greatness whenever we see one, and it doesn't matter who you think the goat of football is.
Just because he's black and never played in Europe. Now they're doubting him
Only football fans underrate him cause they know facts. Overall he has good reputation worldwide
@@djentobreakfastbreakfast8820 you may have a few people who don’t like pele because of his skin color but let’s not assume everyone who thinks pele is overrated is a racist… di stefano was white, won 5 european cups & still disrespected by lots of people today because of the time he played in…
@@djentobreakfastbreakfast8820 I think the real reason is there is very little footage or stats about him .
@@djentobreakfastbreakfast8820 fr
I saw Pele play in a friendly in England for Santos against Sheffield Wednesday in about 1973. Also in the Santos team were Edu and the goalkeeper, Felix, both in the 1970 World Cup winning squad. Now, even though Pele himself stated that George Best was a better player than himself, and even though I am a Manchester United fan and saw George Best play over a hundred times, and idolised him as a kid, I disagree with Pele. As soon as I saw Pele touch a football in real life, ten metres away from me, I knew in a flash that he was better than Best. He is, as far as I'm concerned, the greatest footballer that I ever saw. He was magnetic for leather...
I'm humbled by your observation. I'm sure Pele would be also.
Thank you I didnt get to see him play but I had his video the master and his method, I watched it daily multiple times and his career already ended and I had been watching the new man united Beckam era who was great to watch, but I was convinced I had seen the king of football and no one has even come close
It coming from an english guy who saw him on the pitch just shows that the chances of him being the goat is almost 100%.
I'm too young I only grew up watching Messi and Ronaldo. Pele and Messi are the greatest but not sure who's better.
Pressing X to doubt Pele ever said Best was better than himself.
There is no reason to defend Pele. If you don't think he's the GOAT, you don't know football.
Maradona???
@@PhillyTJ no Boludos allowed
@@PhillyTJ NO

@@bayouflier6641 Who is the goat?
I was privileged to see him play for Brazil in the 1966 World Cup. I was 11 at the time and my dad took me to watch Brazil v Bulgaria at Goodison Park. All the kids wanted to see him and get his autograph. He was roughly handled by the Bulgarian defence and he missed the second game against Hungary. Against Portugal, he played in pain and after one brutal tackle, he hobbled down the touchline a virtual passenger. I was so close to the pitch that I could see the look of pain in his face. I never listen to those who underrate Pele or try to diminish him. He was the greatest.
Sure, we'll just take some 11 y/o kids word for it. GTFOH gramps.... he's the most OVERRATED of all time. Take a hike with your opinion.
@@liberatedentrepreneur149 The disrespect tells me exactly who you are.

@@l.b.9567
No, it doesn't tell you who I am. All it shows is that I have no yearn to sugarcoat things when I'm dealing with morons.
I remember a photograph where Pele was passing a sliding man and behind that man was 5 other men on the ground. The headline stated “sometimes even 6 is not enough”. To me he was the GOAT. ⚽️
GOAT of overratedness
@@Neil-pf3pkMaybe get some CDs of his matches and watch them and then you can start talking
I would make a correction though: Jairzinho wasn't the 1970 World Cup top-scorer, he was Brazil's top scorer. Gerd Müller was the top-scorer of that WC
@@IntellectuallySuperior2U I agree in everything you've said, I'd like just to add another point that I feel you left it out. At the time of Pele, the information, video and data of players overseas were lacking. The first few matches in Europe he could have been a surprise for defenders, half of season after they would have learned his way of playing and built a more efficient way to stop him. Unfortunately we'll never know, if IFs and BUTs were candy and nuts, we'd all have a merry Christmas 😉
@@IntellectuallySuperior2U
Just to remember Pelé and Santos, other Brazilian's and South American team's destroyed European teams in the 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and 90s, in 70% or 80% of the matches. brazil was champion of the world cup 3 times only with players who played in brazil, the best in the world played here 🇧🇷
@@IntellectuallySuperior2U Why in the world would Pelé ever play in Europe? South America championships had more talent than Europe back then, just look at how easily Pelé's Santos destroyed almost every top european team they ever played against. He didn't go because there was no point in going.
@@IntellectuallySuperior2U The amount of lies that you have told in this one comment is astounding.
First of all you said that most of footballing greats say messi is the best but the fact is that none of them has watched Pele play, you just completely disregarded the people who call Pele the greatest as old timers but if you really want to get the best perspective then you have to take the opinions of people who has watched both Messi and Pele play during their lifetime. Most of these people will say Pele was better, if you don't believe me then watch this video named "100 people talk about Pelé".
Two of the things you said in these long comment contradicts each other. First you said Pele's achievements with the national team are underwhelming because he always played in the 'stacked team' ok but then later in your comment you said that Pelé never played in europe thus makes his club career not so great but you didn't realise the fact that almost all of his national teammates played against him on the club level in brazil. Which made the level of competition in brazil very good.
@L'existence Précède L'essence. Va te faire foutre. You do not play, and it shows. Let's begin with what the best players say..it's Pele all say bar one Lionel Messi, a player with no right and barely any headed goals. He keeps silent not because he has anything to match with Pele, but because by hiding he hopes to accumulate something with which to challenge Pele's achievements. What's to hide?! Why the silence? How long to wait?!
Let's move to eras. Last week I saw Messi beg a penalty because a keeper's hand unintentionally touched his face. In Pele's era as pointed out in this balanced presentation, Pele was fouled 4x more than the most fouled currently, no cards, no subs. As for conditions, I've played in snow and waterlogged pitches, professionals refuse to play on now. Pele could play in any era,how many could play in his? Conditioning merely brings out the best in players. Current conditioning akin to the conditioning boxers of Pele's era undertook for 15 rounds, as opposed to today's 12. Just as no boxer today equals Sugar Ray Robinson, no player today equals Pele.
To equal Pele a player needs a heavy shot in the three shooting techniques, with either foot. A player needs impeccable heading ability, chest, thighs, heels and ability to self-correct following impacts and challenges. A player needs improvisational abilities that bring new possibilities into football equal to what Pele brought. One-twos played off opponents? Only Pele ever did it..and so on. The arguments against Pele began with the appearance of Cruyff. Notwithstanding Cruyff playing in teams equally talented as any Pele starred in, Cruyff was the first to acknowledge who was better. Cruyff did have two good feet and was great in the air, played in the category of De Stefano and Zidane..all three better than Messi. The arguments then shifted to Maradona, a single-footed maestro of which many are from South America. Maradona again acknowledged who was better but so did both Argentine World Cup winning managers. Pele at 17 in a World Cup winning squad, Maradona at 17 ,not. Pele at 21 in a virtually unchanged squad 4yrs later, as was Maradona. One squad good enough to retain title without it's talisman, the other unable to retain title with its talisman; Maradona to the 86 team what Garrincha was to the 62 team.
The crux of my argument is a thing only players understand: Maradona and Messi benefitting from low centres of gravity. Pele the only player ever able to change centre of gravity during play. In the 2nd leg of the World Club Cup against Benfica, Pele's 2nd goal was of this quality. He did the same in the World Cup earlier that year in his unsurpassed goal (in my opinion) vs Mexico. This goal is the only goal you will ever see, scored by a player from standstill, going through two lines of four on a diagonal run directly towards goal. Messi could not score such a goal. R9 would have needed another distracting runner and Maradona scored his greatest goals against broken defences following turnover ball. Pele had the Di Stefano AND Maradona category skillsets, plus the pace and power of Mbappe.
I believe your intention was to muddy the waters through which the greatest are evaluated. What betrays you is your own playing experience. To score a goal among the finest of Pele's is the pinnacle of any player's career, not so Messi. Messi could not complete the hattrick Pele scored in 58 vs France: the ball he received on his thigh and transferred to shoot, is the most difficult to convert as the player must rise with the ball to kill it. All this is lost on you because you've never had to execute such technique..such never even entered your head.
But why are we debating Pele's technique when those able to thwart such became World renowned as a result? Bobby Moore thwarted Pele in 70, and is rightly considered the greatest England defender as a result. Gordon Banks saved the perfect header..Why use mealy-mouthed arguments leading nowhere when the pinnacle of Pele bars your path in every direction? If you were doing so out of a sense of injustice, you might argue against the imponderables touched upon in this presentation, but you don't. Your mud is composed of denigration, delegitimisation and denial. Is Messi's left better than Pele's left? No, is his right anywhere near Pele's right? No. Was Messi at 17 better than Pele at 17? No. Has Messi played in teams as talented as Santos or Brazil? Yes. Was 2006 Argentina elevated by Messi vs Germany? No. Was Messi able to win Champion's League minus Xavi and Iniesta? No. There you have the answer to your nonsense! Such are the situations fate reserves for those contending to be the best. Messi entered World Cup folklore against Serbia alongside a stellar team in 2006. 16 years later he still strives to make good his promise.. The intervening years a post-Zidane interregnum. Now the baton has passed to Mbappe or maybe another will emerge in Qatar, but none will surmount the insursurmountable Pele, as the pinnacle of footballing possibilities. I'll leave you with this footage. ruclips.net/video/45xQCnsqCFk/видео.html Not quite La Battalia Bonbonera of '69, but sufficient for Santos to number among teams refusing to contest this trophy. Pele won this trophy in the teeth of hostility. Could the man who's face was last week touched, brave such a field? No. And that is why he cannot compare with Pele. Enjoy! ruclips.net/video/45xQCnsqCFk/видео.html
I had always thought George Best was the best player in the world. After I had the fortune to witness Pepe’s greatness during a friendly game played by Santos against Newcastle on June 4, 1972 in Hong Kong. Newcastle led 2-1 in the first half but Pele scored 3 fantastic goals in the second half to win the game. One of the goals was the best goal I have ever seen. Pele received the ball in the midfield from a overhead pass, he ran toward Newcastle’s goal touching the ball 7 times by his head, chest, thigh and feet while he ran passed 3 players and the ball never touched the ground and scored with a volley. He was like a magician performing acrobatics in full speed. There was a movie that came out and replayed that play 7 times. I kept going back to the theater to watch that play. I wish somebody had that movie or video to show Pele’s skills. He truly is the king and the best.
And then they say that wasn’t an official FIFA goal and say cr7 scored more goals.
We have! ruclips.net/video/Tr93j7Jxork/видео.html&ab_channel=retrofutbol58
George Best is a joke here in Brazil
Pele was a legend to so many people in the 70s and 80s …people can say whatever now, but can’t change the history.
Nobody is trying to change history, genius. We just realize he isn't the goat, but the most overrated player ever.
Pele was trying to change the history, not us. He's not that great. Brazil can win the World Cup without him back then.
@Tommy Stark Guiness World Records already put in 2013 that Pelé was the greatest goalscorer in al history with 1279 goals in 1363 matches.
60s also
I think this a way for europeans trying to find a substitute for Pelé, a black person being the best for over 60 years.
The only people who doubt Pele have an evil agenda, he is the greatest of all time
Addition: Argentinans want to steal GOAT for their players.
No.
Evil agenda ? Lol. Or maybe they just have a different opinion to you, dunce
he is a legend
definitely not the goat
@@gourmondal5812 He is the goat. No other player have 3 world cup under their belt.
As an Argentine, even I recognize Pelé was up there with the very best, top of the top of the top. We could argue if he was the best or not, we can compare him to Maradona, but saying "Pelé was a fraud" is a crime against football and should be punishable by law. He did 50 years ago some of the plays that the best players of today days are praised for, and he played during a time in which there were very little technical advances in the design of footballers' equipment, so it was all natural born skills. Pelé is definitely a Legend.
Maradona was something else, hermano. He is not in the same shelf of the rest.
Maybe Messi will build one for himself too, just like Maradona and Pelé did.
Good luck at the final. Besos de Brasil.
he’s a fraud
Back in 1950s and 60s balls were made of leather and were heavy and they did not travel in the air fast these days balls made of polymer which are more lighter and travel in the air fast very difficult for goalkeepers to stop a good strike
@@PACEMAKER.313 you can control the ball easier when it is a little bit heavier since you can tap it harder without it moving as far

"So, Pele played against weak opposition on the domestic Brazilian League"...........
This is BY FAR, the worst argument against Pele, simply because state-level tournaments in Brasil, throughout the 50s, 60s, and even late 80s were not weak, on the contrary, in fact, some of them (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul) were very strong. Even stronger than the national championship.
First of all, Brazilian football was much stronger then, since almost all Brazilian players would remain in the country. Imagine if Neymar, Vinicius Jr., Firmino, Casemiro, Gabriel Jesus, , Thiago Silva played domestic.
The 1958 team? All of them played locally. 1962 team? 1970 team? 1950 second place team? Yeah, you got it.
And I'm not talking only about first class players in Spain, England, Germany or Italy.Those were playin on the big four from Sâo Paulo or the big four from Rio de Janeiro.
Imagine if the hundreds of brazilian players in Portugal, Ukraine, Japan, Turkey, Russia were playing in Brazil. That was the situation until late 80s. Out local tournaments and clubs were very strong.
Our “second rate” teams were filled with players who would be playing today at médium level teams in Europe.
And please, I beg you: find some statistics about Brazilian teams playing against European teams from that era.
The great Real Madrid? Yes, beaten many times by different teams. AC Milan? Benfica? Yes, all of them.
It's also important to notice that Brazil is a huge continental country. There wasn't a national organized tournament until late 60's. State level tournaments were by far the most important events. It must be said that some of Brazilian states are as big as most of European Countries, but football is historically centered on a few of those states. São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro were the main ones, with Minas Gerais and Rio Grande do Sul on close second.
In the 1958 team there were 10 players from São Paulo (from 5 different teams), and 12 players from Rio (from 5 different teams). 1962 had 13 from 4 different teams from São Paulo. 1970 team had 11 players from Sâo Paulo (from 5 different teams);
If you take a list of teams with most National Champions from the 60's until now, first, second, fourth and fifth places are teams from São Paulo - Palmeiras, Santos, Corinthians and São Paulo FC. All of them, by the way, are also multiple Copa Libertadores Champions. Not to mention medium level teams with multiple second place and third place national honours like Portuguesa, Ponte Preta and Guarany (1978 national champion), that were also playing on São Paulo.
Teams from São Paulo have more National Trophies than teams from all the other states combined.
Those were the teams Pele was playing against.
So, HOW, HOW, HOW can one say that the São Paulo State was not a very strong Tournament, with FOUR high level teams and a number of medium level teams?!?!?!
And Pele was also playing in the “Rio-São Paulo” tournament, with those four best teams from Sâo Paulo AND the four best teams from Rio de Janeiro
It was strong! Pele was playing against some of the best! Pele's team, Santos, was playing against some of the world's best players, and beating some of Brazil's best teams.
You can’t say that Pele just get 3 World Cups because of his world class team mates, and also say that teams with two or three of those same team mates (and Other very good players) were weak.
What are you implying? That those 22 players in the World Cup were world class, but the rest of Brazilian players were bad?
Well, it’s true that some teams were not that strong, but the same can be said about Almeria, or Granada, or Mallorca, or Fulham or Bournemouth. Messi or CR7 goals against them are not valid?
Yes, Pele was playing against and with some of the best players in the world. And guess what? They unanimously say he was the best of them all.....by far.
Nowadays, people forget this, cause the National Tournament is well established, but simply put. State-level Tournaments WERE the most important tournaments throughout the 50's till the 70's.
And you know what? THE SAME IS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN EUROPE.
Imagine this: São Paulo is roughly the size of the UK and has/had 4 high-level teams, Minas Gerais, with two high-level teams, is the size of Spain, Rio has/have 4 high-level teams, Rio Grande do Sul have/has 2, and so on.
Those states had very strong state-level championships.
One day, they decided to create a strong National Tournament and, little by little, those strong state tournaments begin to shrink. 40 years later, we are calling them "farmer's league"
Well, Spain has 2 (maybe 3) strong teams; England has 4, Germany has 2, Italy I don't know anymore, 2 or 3.
There are always plans for a Europe League, with all of them.
Imagine if little by little they begin to abandon the domestic league in favor of this new continental one.
40 years from now, there will be people saying that Messi or Ronaldo or Muller played in a farmer´s league.
Now, let’s talk about the Brazilian National Championship. In Pele times, as I said, it was not the most important tournament. It would be a knockout competition with just three or four games to the title. It was not until 1971 that Brazil would have a proper National League.
So, if you get Pele’s goal average from these 3 or 4 games a year in his prime and 20 games a year when he was over 30, his average wouldn’t be that impressive; but that is the same as measuring CR7 career for his Years in Juventus.
Finally, ”friendly games” didn’t have the same status then as they have now. Football wasn’t the same. Santos actually quit three libertadores to play these so called ”friendly games” including against Real Madrid and Barcelona, Inter Milan, Benfica, AC Milan, Juventus,River Plate, Boca Juniors, with their legendary players and he had the same goal average (0.92, 0.94) in ”unofficial games”. Those were not summer cup games.
This should be a fixed comment.
You eviscerated the maker of this video. All facts. It's wild that Europeans downplay South American players when their best clubs bring them all on their teams and they are usually the best players. Especially the case for Brazil. Now put all the best Brazilian players and make them all play in Brazilian clubs then ofc the competition was incredible.
It's incredibly annoying seeing so many people trying to downplay Pele.
Pele was an amazing player, comparing a man that played in the 50's, 60's and 70's to 2022 4K, high resolution multi-billion dollar stadiums with air conditioning and drainage systems and multi million dollar salaries.
Pele was doing some skills 50 years ago that players do today, some players had second jobs and played football professionally on the side for extra cash.
Put Messi and Ronaldo in the 50s when the balls were 20kg and they played on dirt grass and flying tackles that broke you.
It`s absurd not to recognize he is to football what Senna was to F1, what MJ is to basketball, what Usain Bolt is to athletism, what Mohammed Ali was to boxing, and so on.. He changed the game forever, and what you see in this sport today is only happening for what he did.
Or Jimi Hendrix to the guitar.
@@wloonie Or tony hawk to skateboarding.
I think he is much more like wilt chamberlain than mj. Mj played in a much modern version of basketball, and most fans still consider him as the best basketball players ever. Meanwhile, fans overlook wilt, because he played in the earliest era of nba, and doubt that he could dominate modern nba with its complexity.

@@wesbyEric mo I was just saying he was when I was a kid. Of course I followed some of the Cosmos players before the league went down at the time. My actual criteria is how much winning they did and how many records they set or if they were the best in their era. If they changed the sport? Pele checked those boxes. The only player to be a part of 3 world cup winners. He almost won 4 but according to something I read a bad call by a referee screwed him in 1966.

Pele was the best! If you lived those years you would know. There are more important aspects than just numbers. He was a leader, made everyone better, and elevated the game everywhere he went. Was Mohammed Ali the best? In similar cases, there will be others with better numbers, but never another one who would mean as much to his country and the world. I'm Mexican and I know well who the best was.
Gracias. Couldn`t have said it any better.

I've been a football fan for 36 years since i was 4. And you have got to remember that football was harder back then as not as much fouls were given and players were more aggressive in tackles or 1v1 situations, and the gear and balls were heavier and harder to use as they did not have the materials that they have today. 🤣🤣 you make me laugh at how uneducated you are at football.

Antes do Pelé não existia tanta criatividade e habilidade, ele foi o inventor disso, dribles, chapeis, fintas, domínio de bola, chute de primeira a principal referência para todos os outros craques que viriam e virão depois.
A once-in-century phenom; a person of charisma and fortitude, who paved the way for the World's most Glorious sport: FOOTBALL.
An athlete of the highest caliber.
~ May you find peace wherever you may be, Sir.
Pelé is FOREVER!!"
But still rule was restrictive. Like even in same line of 2 nd last would be considered offside during 1970 and even the person who is in offside and even though he is not involved in playing would be considered offside for whole team. So goal scoring was still tough. Also goalkeeper had all rights to take ball from hand even if it was passed by same team mate.
He deserves more respect people don’t believe him because we weren’t born back then but u shouldn’t judge only people from then can k now and loved the vid
Different time
Rest in peace king Pelé. Today we tend to forget about how this wonderful athlete has changed the sport forever. He was head and shoulders above his contemporaries. His legacy is nothing like the others. Rip Legend.
Beautifully said.....💚⚽️💚
Although the first golden ball was given in 1982, Pele was actually chosen the best player of 1970 WC scoring or assisting every match.
In 1958 he was the best young players and what he did was impressive for a 17 yo
And Brazil the only country who won World Cup in Europe and Europe never won World Cup in Latin America in very recently Germany did it in Brazil.
Golden balls until like the 90's was only for europeans, that changed but very later on, France Football did a "corection" list if the golden ball was given to all players insteaf of only europeans, in total pelé won 8 in the list
@@SoppadaSoupp you are confusing the world cup golden ball with the ballon d'or. But you are indeed correct
@@carlosvg2286 Thank you lad, my bad great comment!
Vini is scoring and assisting in every match
Thank you for making the video. Pele was the best player in 1970 world cup but they didn't have the world cup golden ball back then.
He also scored most of the 'friendly' goals in his prime years when he and santos was touring around the world playing against the best teams.
Modern football fans(messi and ronaldo fans) are unaware of these facts, they don't even bother to research for a minute or two.
Because it doesn't matter, he played in an era with few good players a lot of those matches were not even official, today you have Messi dominating over a decade against the most amount and best prepared players ever and even then he already surpassed Peles made up records.
But even before that when people choose the player of the century it was Maradona, then Fifa again made up some award and gave it to Pele so he can look good.
@@ginebro1930 the thing is football in that era, was not globalized. So the best played in their country. Here in Brazil, a lot of teams in that era had monster players. Teams that today not even play 4th division football. And you can say the same for Uruguay, Argentina, Germany, Italy even the USSR. The local club in the the suburb of Rio de Janeiro where I live struggle to even play these day, but back in the 60´s they toured Europe and beat teams like Benfica and even them, they were not even in the top 10 teams of the nation. To understand football in that era, you need to put aside the football you know today and think what the Premier league would look like with mostly english players and what the Argentina league would look like through the decades, with Maradona, Batistuta, Messi, Veron and etc.
Touring around the world playing village teams……
@@ginebro1930 When Messi wins a world cup you can include him in the conversation. Men who use drugs to enhance their endurance cannot be considered the goat
@@N17-o2r how about touring around the world beating the best teams everywhere.
The offside rule in Pelé's era was indeed more restrictive than the current one. But it's not because in Pelé's era, you had to have two players in front of you, while "today is only one". No, it's still two. The reason why the rule was harsher is because any offside player, even if not participating at all, could still cause a whole play to be ruled out as offside. I'll give you an example using Milan 5-0 Real Madrid in 1988/89 UCL semifinals, second leg. Real Madrid had over 20 offsides in that game, and the legendary Sacchi's Milan team showed total mastery of how to exploit the offside rule back then to its limits. Look at 24:00 of the video below.
ruclips.net/video/T6R0-8Sy98I/видео.html
Also, same line was offside, not onside as it is stated in the current rule.
Laws of the games is pretty simple, isnt't it? But in reality it's almost impossible to rely on human eyes to see an offside or 'ghost' goal without VAR. But it's controversy actually makes it more fun to watch. There's gonna be lifetime bantering between fans. Lots of what ifs and if onlys. My comment might be off topic but I don't mean to disagree to anything you said. Cheers.

Pele is the GOAT better than CR7, and Messi
Nope.
@@is17a985 Yup
Yes
"The more the game was difficult, the more Pele
asked for the ball and played even better" - Tostão.
Pelé's biggest matches were the ones he
was
challenged:
Santos vs Botafogo-SP, Pelé scored 8 goals and
during the match, the opponents asked Pelé to stop,
as they were feeling humiliated, but Pelé replied that
he would detonate Botafogo-SP, this because in the
previous game, Botafogo-SP won Santos and at the
end of the game, Botafogo-SP mocked Santos on
the field.
In 1959, Pelé scored his greatest goal, the goal of
Rua Javari, and invented the air punch. This
happened because the opposing crowd challenged
Pelé, who then scored his biggest goal, and
celebrated with a punch in the air, fighting and
cursing the opposing crowd.
In 1962, Pelé played his biggest game in Europe,
because Benfica looked down on Santos……etc.
Pele's history and personality are like this, when
challenged, Pele played even better.
Before the 1958 World Cup, in the game against
Corinthians, Pelé suffered a knee injury, Pelé swore
that as long as he played, Corinthians would never
be champions, Corinthians went 11 years without
beating Santos and was only champion when Pelé
retired.
In 1965 vs Prudentina Pelé was challenged by the opposing crowd… Pelé then went on to score 8 goals, 3 which were disallowed. After the match Pelé showed his 5 fingers to the public and to the fans of Prudentina who challenged him.

@@LeonardoGuerreiro Yes my friend, i liked you’re comment.
Those were all charity and unauthorised by fifa matches
@@ayanbhattacharjee1076 that's false not all of them were charity matches or friendlies.
There's no one ever like Pelé! All the facts, like you presenting here, that I already knew it, proves that. A total complete player, used both legs, heading the ball, chesting the ball, dribbling etc. No one is like him. Pelé was the best among the best. in 1958 he was the best, he saved Brazil against Wales. In 1970 he had the best moments of the tournament, like dribbling Uruguay goalie without touching the ball and someone trying for the first time in a world cup to score a goal from the other side of the field.
If every one from his era says he scored a 1000 goals then he probably did…imagine in 50years time people say CR7 didn’t really score 700 plus goals in his career or excuses like football was soft or didn’t have much tactics back then
Todos os 1283 gols de Pelé foram registrada em súmula do juíz da partida.
Tem a lista de todos os jogos e gols de Pelé disponível na Internet.
Quando Pelé marcou o gol mil em 1969, a FIFA emitiu certificado à Pelé, reconhecendo os 1000 gols
OOF taht will be interesting then
Non sense. Do you even know what backyards goals are?
Pele was the main face of football that time & there was not much tournaments like present. That's why they travel the world & played against all european giants.
What you are calling backyards goals that's actually scored against Madrid, Milan,United,Ajax & all big big clubs that time.
His goal ratio was above 1 against all european giants that time.
He was better than Messi/Ron anyday.What he invented 60 years ago then rest of all used it in their game.😁

@@hugosilva3916 Vcs contavam gols amistosos sim!
Deixaram de contar por causa de jornalistas, que quando surgiu a internet, ao fazer site de clubes, buscaram os campeonatos para contabilizar os gols.
Isto porque é mais fácil encontrar gols em campeonatos, do que esporádicos em "amistosos".
Os amistosos de seleções hoje valem como oficiais, assim como os amistosos de clubes valiam como oficiais no passado.
Antigamente não existia muitos torneios e os times organizavam partidas entre si, era a realidade e critérios da época. No Brasil os torneios duravam 4 meses ao ano, depois vinha a temporada de amistosos que fazia parte do calendário; as excursões do Santos, era com aval das federações e da FIFA.
Para ser oficial não tinha que ser em torneios, era só obedecer as regras do futebol e ter súmula, tal qual os jogos de seleções, onde os amistosos são oficiais.
Essa narrativa de gols oficiais/amistosos, surgiu nos anos 2000, com puro anacronismo tolo, antes ninguém cogitava isto. Quando Pelé marcou o gol 1000, a FIFA expediu certificado à Pelé, mas hoje vcs falam que não marcou mil gols.
O problema de vcs é racismo, xenofobia. ... Pelé quando jogou na Europa, destruiu os europeus e vcs não suportam um negro ser o rei do futebol.
The goat? Why would you debate a silly title bestowed to mere humans, he is much more than that now a distinction so much greater that only a handful of gods sons became to be, he is LEGEND … he is INMORTAL in the minds and hearts of many throughout the world.
RIP “Rei Pele”
É um erro ENORME, ENORME, dizer que o Santos dos anos 60 era só Pelé. O goleiro Gylmar, o zagueiro Mauro, o meia Zito e o ponta Pepe eram regulares da seleção brasileira e Pepe só não jogou copas do mundo por contusões às vésperas das copas de 62 e 66. A seleção de 1970, tida como a melhor da história, tinha mais dois titulares do Santos (Carlos Alberto Torres e Clodoaldo).
Pelé foi o maior da história, mas esteve cercado de gênios tanto no Santos quanto na seleção

My grandpa actually saw Pelé playing in real life multiple times in Santos Stadium, is his words Pelé had a boost of athletic skills, extremely smart, with a powerful shot from long distances, he was a unstoble machine, and just comparing him at World cup level, is insane, just someone that actually saw his matches multiple times and know how to compare them to the soccer of that time, is able to deal with comparing him to today's players.

Antigamente a Taça Libertadores não tinha importância. Por muitos anos fou disputado apenas entre Uruguai e Argentina.

@@sky3down367 Pelé didn't invent goals. In Pelé's era, official goals wasn't really a well-established concept, and even competitions like UCL and Libertadores (the south-american equivalent to the UCL) were still very young. Friendlies and unofficial competition could be valuable, and many of Pelé's goals in "friendlies" are against far stronger opposition than some of his official goals (there were weak teams in Brazil and in São Paulo's state championship, of course, like there are weak teams in each league today, but Pelé's stats and performances against pretty much every great team you can think of from football back then are also fantastic, he stat-padded against EVERYONE!). Pelé played against the entire european elite, and Santos, Pelé's club, actually abdicated from playing Libertadores after 1964 for the rest of decade because international tours were much more lucrative!
The video fumbles in two things though:
1-Jairzinho wasn't the top-scorer in the 1970 World Cup. He was Brazil's top-scorer, with 7 goals in 6 games, and also scoring in every match (a feat no one has repeated since). But Gerd Müller was the top-scorer of the competition, with 10 goals.
2-The offside rule in Pelé's era was indeed more restrictive than the current one. But it's not because in Pelé's era, you had to have two players in front of you, while "today is only one". No, it's still two. The reason why the rule was harsher is because any offside player, even if not participating at all, could still cause a whole play to be ruled out as offside. I'll give you an example using Milan 5-0 Real Madrid in 1988/89 UCL semifinals, second leg. Real Madrid had over 20 offsides in that game, and the legendary Sacchi's Milan team showed total mastery of how to exploit the offside rule back then to its limits. Look at 24:00 of the video below.

Also, same line was offside, not onside as it is stated in the current rule.

Let's not forget, but people sadly forget, that Pelé was truly an amazing ATHLETE! He helped revolutionize the sport, and he was insanely perfectionist in how well he took care of his health and training. He was physically and genetically privileged, could run 100 meters in less than 11 seconds, and was a true freak of nature overall. At his peak, mainly in the early to mid-60s, a ruthless competitive machine of 100% objectivity and insane skills that could even bulldoze past defenders in strong physical duels if necessary. More details on Pelé's amazing athletic atributes here.

And don't forget that Brazil won three World Cups in 12 years, and everyone in those teams was playing for a brazilian club!
Overall, there can be zero doubt that Pelé is indeed a GOAT of this sport. I won't discuss here if he is greater than Messi or not, as I don't think there can be an absolute GOAT. But there can be a GOAT category, and Pelé and Messi are undoubtedly there, on the exact same tier. They should be in any Top 3 of greatest players in football history!
I hope someday that all the ignorance and bullshit regarding Pelé that is still being spread online can finally stop. It's so, so unfair and disrespectful.
I also recommend this Michael Cox article from The Guardian, though he makes mistakes regarding the brazilian state championships. Brazil wasn’t/is broken down in four regions, each state had/has its championship, but the clubs from the São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro states concentrated the vast majority of the talent, and there was even a Rio-São Paulo tournament as well. The big exception to the "rule" of talent being concentrated in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro's clubs was Cruzeiro from the state of Minas Gerais, they won Taça Brasil in 1966 (there wasn't a brazilian league per se back then, Brazil's size, poor infra-structure and logistics made that impossible, so Taça Brasil was the closest to that, it was a very short KO tournament), beating Pelé's Santos in the finals in truly legendary fashion (6-2 in the first leg, 3-2 in the second), ending Santos' hegemony of five titles of Taça Brasil in a row.
Coming back to the article though, Michael Cox is spot-on when it comes to the many unfair complaints thrown at Pelé, and also how the contexts of different eras can be so wildly different that stats' comparisons are ultimately unfair.

The article is behind a paywall, so I'll quote the most important points.
"Let’s start with Pele. In recent years, his goalscoring record has come to be mocked for various reasons, in part because his figure of 1,279 includes matches scored in youth matches, state competition matches and friendlies.
Few of those goals were scored in youth competitions. It’s worth remembering that Pele was playing in Santos’ first team by the age of 15 and for Brazil by the age of 17.
The concept of “friendlies” was, in the 1960s, somewhat different from today. Pele was the world’s greatest player, Santos were often regarded as the world’s greatest side, and those tour matches of Europe and Africa were taken extremely seriously by Santos and their opponents.
For example, in Athens in 1961, Olympiakos defeated Pele’s Santos 2-1 - the Brazilian side’s first loss in a 13-game European tour. It is considered a victory of such importance that it features in the club anthem: “Everyone trembles at the very sound of your name / Pele and Santos still remember your name”, it proclaims. This is a club boasting 46 league titles and 28 Greek Cups, yet a victory in a “friendly” remains its most celebrated win.
Some of the most famous matches of this era were friendlies - take Hungary’s win over England at Wembley in 1953, or Wolverhampton Wanderers’ famous 3-2 victory over Honved a year later.
It’s not unreasonable for Pele to count those goals. Equally, since club friendlies in the modern era aren’t considered so prestigious, it would seem less understandable if Ronaldo or Lionel Messi’s goals in those games counted, and therefore for consistency, none are counted in “official” records. That’s all fair enough but it’s not like Pele is attempting to claim goals scored in his back garden.
It’s also worth questioning why it is universally accepted that goals in international friendlies do count, but goals in club friendlies do not. Many of Pele’s goals in club friendlies will have been scored in much more competitive situations than, for example, Ronaldo’s friendly goals against Andorra, Luxembourg and Estonia."
the leagues were shorter back then, so teams could go touring and playing other tournaments to make some profit.
@@matheus5230 You are making things up same as Pele did. Started counting friendlies you too? What stronger teams? He scored sometimes like 5 goals against some total amateurs in some official matches. Also, many of his goals are proven to be false in terms that they should be counted. He also has played in far far far more amateurish football. Did you even watch him play in videos? It is totally amateurish football compared to today. He was good for that era, but thats it. And if you count friendly game goals it means you are insecure (talking about Pele here, not you).
@@vedadvehabovic6052 Brazil won three World Cups from 1958 to 1970. All of the players in those Brazil squads played in brazilian clubs.
Also, you really either didn't read or straight-up ignored all I said in my comment, and the links I shared. Santos actively boycotted most of the Libertadores editions from the 60s, because it was far more lucrative to the club to play friendlies across the world. Back then, official games and tournaments weren't as well defined today, and the calendary had less games too. So, teams played friendlies that were taken very seriously. Some of the biggest games of that era were friendlies actually, like Hungary's historical 6-3 win against England at Wembley in 1953.
All games featuring Pelé's Santos made stadiums across the world be fully crowded, and everyone wanted the bragging rights of beating Pelé, and everyone took the games very seriously. You can't look at the past with the eyes of the present, you have to understand the context of the era, things were different. In one of the links I shared, there are examples of strong teams Pelé played against across the world, and there is also a good video in RUclips called Pelé vs. Europe. Santos faced Eusébio's Benfica in 1966, and won by 4-0. Santos had already faced Benfica before, and in an official competition: the 1962 Intercontinental Cup. Santos beat Benfica by 5-2 at Benfica's home, with Pelé scoring a hat-trick and one assist. In 1959, Santos played a friendly against Real Madrid, and lost by 5-3, with Pelé scoring two goals. And the list goes on. You really should check out the video made by Daily Dose Football regarding Pelé. And please, read my first comment again, and this link below too, debunking all bullshit regarding Pelé, and also talking about Pelé's amazing athletic atributes, and how perhaps no other player did as much as Pelé in changing the sport and make it the global phenomenon it is. Pelé was the Messi of his era. He was already seen as the GOAT. And the far lesser globalization also made Pelé far harder to watching than Messi nowadays, so everyone wanted to see Pelé whenever they could, wherever he went. Everyone kissed where he stepped, he was worshipped like a god, and was a global celebrity that transcended the sport. Look at Netflix's doc called Pelé.

In 30 years time you will have idiots that will claim Messi was overrated the truth is If you give Pele the training that modern players get with tactics like tiki taka he will easily win a couple of ballon d'ors but if throw Messi back in the 60s with the heavy leather balls and the defenders that can break a player leg and only get a yellow card he will most likely struggle
And under what basis did u arrive at that absurd conclusion?U are not a god to predict what messi's past could have been in that era because somebody could also argue with the modernization of modern football, players are much sharper, more technical,more skilled,more physical and fitter compared to the part time farmers,dentists and shopkeppers who were not even that good at defending that Pelle played against.Remember the offside rules were not even updated.That narrative of yours is flawed n non-existent.Infact Pelle has to be the most overrated player in history.Most Brazilians even consider Zarincha and Zico a far much better player than he was.Nowhere near Messi's level leave alone even Maradona.
@@desmondachocky537 those "farmers and dentists" could literally walk away with murder and not even get a yellow card. Matter fact, it took Van Basten, in the 90s, to have laws that protect attackers more. Pele was highly skilled, even in today's standards. Was highly competitive, capable to adapt to the development of the game in different generations (the main reason why his best performances in World Cups were 12 years apart, and the 70 World Cup had far more advanced tactics to the previous World Cups). So yeah, it's asinine to think he wouldn't adapt his game. And "most" Brazilians do no consider Zico better lol.
@@desmondachocky537 absurd conclusion??? Son, look at our footballer era... a guy like Haaland will break Messi and CR7 goal records in less time than them but he will never be as good as either. Our era is era of attacking football. Messi and CR7 aren't even better than R9 and Zidane.
I think if Pele could do it, Messi probably could do it too, find them to be pretty similar but Pele would surely be better nowdays, there's a reason why france football said he would have like 7 ballon d'ors
@@nightprowler6336 First of all,R9 is a striker,zidane was an attacking midfielder n his stats both in goals,assists,creating chances,successful dribbles e.t.c are no where near Messi's level who plays a similar role like he did.The fact that Messi who is a playmaker and his goal scoring stats are even far much better than arguably the greatest striker of all times in R9 should be an indication of the kind of genius we are dealing with.Therefore your point is completely flawed from every angle possible.
Y'all Messi and Ronaldo fans better get ready, tomorrow kids will call your 🐐 s shite. I'll be hear to amplify the agony.
Tem um ditado no Brasil que revela tudo: "Pelé é o melhor jogador do mundo e um dos melhores jogadores do Brasil".
So humble of them.

He played every 2 days and the player today cry 😂
Well, people will keep arguing about who the goat is for a simple reason: no one even know what is the best way to make that comparison to begin with.
It's each players prime or whole career? How to account for strong/weak competition? How to take in account sport evolution? It's just to many variables.
Thanks for the video.
It was good and necessary for those who were unsure quite how good Pele was. 🙌🏽
Messi and CR7 play alone? Messi achieve almost nothing with Argentina team..
People blame Pelé because he is black, that is It.
He scored 757 career goals and 525 backyard goals😂😂🔥
Bro scored like speed in the Charity match.
And Messi got all his shit In a league wit less competition than played in la liga and did nothing in the ucl for years after losing the actual core that helped win missi is not a winner everything about missi scream loser how long it take for missi to get a international trophy cuz I think Ronaldo did it first 😭 oh and missi a midget that needed growth hormones so he not even like that without what most nah not most if anyone else got that type of treatment in any sport that guy can’t play so even wit all that steroids, a team full of a1 players, and all these “skills” and “goals” he still got no World Cup barely won a cup for Argentina, did nothing in the ucl time and time again, but hey he got all the popularity awards 🤣🤣🤣😭
@@wereallyrollin6680 who is talking about messi 😭, rent free in your head
Non sense. Do you even know what backyards goals are?
Pele was the main face of football that time & there was not much tournaments like present. That's why they travel the world & played against all european giants.
What you are calling backyards goals that's actually scored against Madrid, Milan,United,Ajax & all big big clubs that time.
His goal ratio was above 1 against all european giants that time.
He was better than Messi/Ron anyday.What he invented 60 years ago then rest of all used it in their game.😁

Exactly, guy hasn’t got a clue
Pele Was an out-of-the-world goal scorer in his time. As time passes better players will emerge as we will learn more about football and the use of technology will help us play better. Because of that people compare past players with current players and think current players are better. But In my Opinion, past players are better technique.
Yeah, technology and science will turn people into superhumans, alright. Everyone is going to worship the god they desire. Good luck with your god!
Just watch the proper video of him and see the ridiculous goals.. chips, overheads, dribbles, both feet. It’s enough to assess him versus todays players who can’t do those things.

As an argentinean our press always downplay Peles legacy when compared to maradona because he didnt play in europe and because footbal of that time was different (different ball, rules, play styles etc) this video is another proof press always lies or omit a LOT of details didnt knows his history was kinda tragic , his own country didnt let the man leave for europe to play futbol , i think this video proves Pele was big than maradona or any other player from the past or present , just the foul stats showed in this video show how much tough players on that era had to beat the odds and win something
Have to remember Pele played in a different era. You would think the footballers of present day are better in every aspect. Despite this the man is still one of the greats and legends. All the tributes fans pay to him will never be enough....
modern players can perfom better because the modern rules protect them a lot, Pelé played when the cards didn't exist, so defenders could tackle him consecutively without being afraid of being sent off.
@@jczura5602 Do you have any statistics backing that claim? a list showing players where considerably more prone to get injured in the 60s and 70s

People who underrate Pelé are Dunning-Krueger's persons who look to him with lenses that uses as paramenters nowadays standarts, they completely disreguard the historical background he was in, and how football and footballers standarts were back then. As a matter of fact, every footballer who played with or against him, and therefore unbiased, recognized he was above everyone else in all aspects.
Pelé is the undisputed G.O.A.T... with CR7 the modern day one... they both have two Argentine greats behind them. Even with the two also not being out and out strikers and conquering e everywhere and everything they faced.

@@gourmondal5812 Greatest pepsi head

OK, Pele' was put in a cage and he didn't try to escape once he was in. Maradona would have never allowed it to happen and that's why Maradona is greater than Pele.
The man played 4 and won 3 World Cups, but Carragher, the former player who has more goals against than in favor, it's the genius. Lol
He was great in one. Injured during the second. And was part of an all great Brazilian team at the twilight of his career in 1970. Pele deserves respect, but we need to retrospectively analyse his career and achievements without nostalgia bias.
