PeleEdson Arantes do Nascimento or better known as Pele was prodominitically named the best football player in the world and is still probably the best in history. Pelé's playing style had changed the game forever. And thanks to such great successes in their country, Brazil had become the most feared international team to date. But Pelé didn't just change the game of football, he also changed the hearts and minds of less privileged people around the world, giving them hope to move forward and push themselves towards their dreams. On October 23, 1940 in the small town of Tres Coracoes in southern Brazil, a gifted child named Edson Arantes do Nascimento was born. And just two years after him his younger brother Zora was born and they always did everything together, especially playing football. At an early age Edson was introduced to a game called football which is the most popular sport played in his country. His father Dondinho, also a great footballer, taught Edson the game and made him know practically everything. But due to unfortunate financial problems his family could not afford a soccer ball to play with. So, to solve the problem, Edson's father took an old sock and filled it with rags so the children could play with it and use it as a soccer ball. A few years later he gave the name Pelé to all the children in the neighborhood. Edson had no idea what it was and neither did the boys, it was just a nickname given to him because his football skills were much better than anyone else his age. But little did he know that the name Pele would stay with him throughout his life and become the most popular name during his lifetime. But thanks to its… half of the paper… it is practical”, and “Enthusiasm is everything, it must be taught and it must vibrate like a guitar string”. ( ). A new game called “pelada” was also launched in Brazil, where football was played in the streets. This game was played only by the best in the world, Pele, who gave this game its popularity. Some of his career states when he played were scoring 1280 goals in 1360 games. Who set the record for his country and for the rest of the world. this record has yet to be broken and some say it never will. Pelé also achieved ninety-two hat tricks, which is still a world record. He scored four goals in thirty matches, three goals in ninety-two matches and eight goals in one match, which is the most goals ever scored by one person. Pelé also racked up 100 or more goals in three different seasons, and by the age of twenty-one had more than 400 goals.
