Pele celebrates his 80th
birthday today. Perhaps the most long-lived sportsman to fill the reports
throughout history - of course, no longer scoring goals and enchanting the
public, but always participating in some way in football events.
The world became aware of Pele at the 1958 World Cup in Sweden. Time
is cruel for everyone. Not even the Athlete of the Century would be able to
overcome it. Even so, with the same refined technique with which he overcame
his markers, Pele is avoiding his health problems and is there.
Even those who have not seen him performing in the stadiums are
excited to see the brilliant moves that his talent has produced, whether in the
mythical Maracana or in a small stadium in the interior of Sao Paulo.
Pele, according to the so-called statistics, scored 1,281 goals in
1,363 matches (including friendly, unofficial matches). For the Brazilian
soccer team, he won three World Cups (Sweden, 1958; Chile, 1962; and Mexico,
1970) - the only player to achieve this feat. For Santos, his only team in
Brazil, he won twice the Libertadores da América (1962 and
1963) and the Intercontinental de Clubs.
Among his numerous awards, the Player of the Century was chosen by
the International Federation of Football History and Statistics (IFFHS), and the
Best Player of the Century by FIFA. The International Olympic Committee chose
him too as the Athlete of the Century. All this in 1999. The citizen Edson
Arantes do Nascimento (Pele himself makes this distinction in his speeches) was
Minister of Sport in Brazil.
