Looks back at the extraordinary 12-year period in which Pelé, the only man to win three World Cup titles, went from young superstar in 1958 to national hero in 1970: a radical yet turbulent era in Brazil's history. 1970 world cup in Mexico. Pele is under a lot of pressure. His form has declined, and age is not on his side. The pressure is building, and Pele hated it. Pele was born in 1940 in Brazil. Brazil was a poor and a developing country. His father was a footballer with nickname Dondinho. Maria Lucia is Pele's sister. Pele always looked up to his father and wanted to play football. His father got injured and the club stopped paying him, so Pele got a job polishing boots. Pele never thought he would become a famous footballer. Dondinho delivered Pele could become a great footballer and moved the family to Santos, which had a football club. Pepe and Dorval recognized Pele's talent from the get-go. He was called up for the 1958 world cup in Sweden. Brazil wasn't known for football, and they weren't the favorites. People were astonished to see a black man (as they had never seen one before) 1950 world cup was in Brazil and there were great hopes that Brazil would win the cup and step onto the world stage as a proud nation. But Brazil lost 2-1 to Uruguay. It was a tragedy. 1958. Brazil vs Wales, Quarter Final. Pele scores the winning goal. Brazil Vs France, semi-Final. Pele scores 3 goals in a 5-2 victory. Brazil vs Sweden, Final. Sweden went ahead, but Brazil won 5-2. Pele was a national hero at 17 years of age. Everyone wanted Pele, and he was seen as royalty.

In 1964, the military in Brazil under General Pinto, deposed the supposedly communist government. The coup was supported by the CIA to avoid Soviets expanding their influence in South America. Pele simply accepted the regime and lived with it Pele married Rose in 1966. Pele had many commercial commitments and hence less and less time for family. This required more time than just playing football. Pele also admits that it was hard for him to remain faithful to his wife, with all the girls all over the world throwing themselves at him. Some of his affairs resulted in children. Pele claims his wife knew about his affairs. 1966 world cup in England. Expectations are sky high for Brazil to win a third time. Pele was captain. Opposition had a strategy to mark Pele out of the tournament. First match against Bulgaria. Pele is brought down by aggressive marking yet ends up scoring & winning. Next match is against Hungary.

Pele intends not to play in a world cup again as he thinks he is unlucky in world cups. 1968 was a yr of riots in Brazil as the dictatorship enacted Institutional act # 5, which took away all civilian rights and freedoms.

Pele has reached 1000 goals in his career. 19th Nov 1969, Santos plays Vasco & Pele scores his 1000th goal. Pele represented hope in a torn country. Pele met Medici and the public turned against him. People saw him as a submissive black man. Many people compare Pele to Muhammed Ali, who refused to fight the Vietnam war. Ali never faced torture or murder, but Pele didn't have that guarantee. 1970 world cup rolled around in Mexico. Winning was crucial and support staff was made up of Military personnel. The dictatorship forced Pele to play in the world cup. Saldanha is the manager of the team and brings in changes to the Brazilian style of play. Saldanha and Pele never got along.
