Edson Arantes Do Nascimento
Date of Birth: 23 October 1940
Birthplace: Tres Corações, Brazil
Pele. The God of football. "O Rei". Whatever the name, the memory is the same - of a world-beating superstar - a record-breaking footballing icon. Above and beyond his unequalled achievement in winning three FIFA World Cupsâ¢, Pele, was a genius who was constantly reinventing the game of football.
With every touch of the ball, every pass, every dribble, Pele was capable of coming up with something new - something the fans had never seen before. With a killer instinct in front of goal, an eye for the perfect pass and legendary dribbling skills, Pele was just about the perfect footballer. And if the "Seleçaõ" came to incarnate the "beautiful game" in the eyes of so many fans around the world, this can largely be credited to the breathtaking skills of their celebrated no10.

Pele must be 65 as he was only 17 at the 1958 World Cup Finals. Brazil went onto to win it for the first time. The Brazil team of 1970 was the best by a long way and Brazil's 4th goal in the 1970 World Cup Final against Italy is my favourite team goal of all time. How about any of yours ?
