My favorite Pele moment would without doubt, hands down, no question about it, his…erectile dysfuction campaign.

My favourite Pelé moment is his cameo in Mike Bassett: England Manager when he doesn’t even realise England have made the World Cup.

My favourite Pele moment was the goal he scored for Santos against Benfica in 1962. A short pass to his feet and before he even touches the ball, he has sold a dummy to a defender with a swivel of his hips. Sprinting towards goal, Pele looks as if hes about to lose his footing but regains it and in doing so, manages to take the ball past the last two defenders before hitting a rocket of a shot just inside the far post of the goal. This, for me, encapsulated the genius that Pele had, that made everything look so easy.

His dummy and miss against Uruguay in 1970. The greatest goal there never was by the greatest player there ever was.

1970 world cup final in Mexico. Scoring the opener against Italy on the biggest stage in the world and being hoisted in the air by his teamate, a memorable picture. What a man!
