I went to watch him play at Hillsborough in the 70s for Santos, probably the greatest player I have seen play live. RIP Pele

Didn’t score, but wow.

Those who were wetting their pants eulogising about that game a couple of weeks back obviously never saw Pele, Jairzinho, Carlos Alberto et al in their pomp.

1970. That was a final!
