Erling Haaland has already tweeted “Everything you see any player doing, Pelé did it first.” Which says it all, but I believe he watched a YouTube video with that title.
The thing is Pele suffers in the GOAT Debate, because there is way less footage of him compared to modern day players.
But this video is a real eye opener. Cruyff turns, Rabona, Scissor kick , everything, it’s almost eerie.



But the one thing I will always remember about Pele is :

If that had gone in, it would’ve been probably the most iconic clip ever. It was David Coleman’s commentary that was gold. He was speechless.
RIP Pele.
