Ta for that. Football from another planet. Met Jairzihno once, he was ***ed.

 

[Jedi boro]

the names still trip off the tongue jairzinho, , tostao, gerson, Carlos Alberto and of course pele.

Including “that” goal

 

[Erimus74]

I don't think he'll still hold the record of scoring in every World Cup finals
I wouldnt have thought so mind

• The only players to have scored in every match including the final are Jairzinho of Brazil, who did this in the 1970 World Cup and Alcide Ghiggia of Uruguay in 1950. However, Ghiggia only played four games whereas Jairzinho played six.

The best team in my lifetime with the best team goal I've ever seen.Played from the back with no Italy player touching the ball.Mind you the ball bounced up perfectly for Carlos Alberto.

I thought it took a bit of a bobble but then he still managed to score the goal of the century.

Funny how Pele is more famous for goals he missed than specific goals he scored

 

[FartingGnome]

According to the IFFHS, Pelé is the most successful domestic league goal-scorer in football history scoring 650 goals in 694 League matches, and in total 1281 goals in 1363 games, which included unofficial friendlies and is a Guinness World Record



"Funny how Pele is more famous for goals he missed than specific goals he scored"

Not so sure ....

His goal scoring statistics are obviously impressive but I'm on about memories of specific goals. To me, his most iconic clips are:
1. Header saved by Banks
2. Nearly scoring from halfway line
3. Dummying the keeper without touching the ball. Then missing.
4. Being tackled by Moore.

First two words are the most important there ....

 

[Rofesleg]

OK, so which clips of him do you see played on TV most often?
