He shares his story, his experience, and his insights on the game for the very first time. He created pure magic with his accomplishments on the field: an unprecedented three World Cup championships and the all-time scoring record, with 1,282 goals in his twenty year career. For the first time ever, Pelé explores the recent history of the game and provides new insights into soccer’s role connecting and galvanizing players around the world.
