The word legend is thrown about far too much but certainly not in this case
In a post on Instagram, Neymar says: "Before Pele, '10' was only a number. I read this phrase somewhere, sometime in my life.
"But this phrase, beautiful, is incomplete.
"I would say that before Pele, football was solely a sport.
"Pele changed everything.
"He transformed football into art, into entertainment.
"He gave voice to the poor, to black people, and most importantly: He gave visibility to Brazil.
"Football and Brazil elevated their status thanks to the King!
"He is gone, but his magic will stay.
"Pele is eternal!!"
💯

Thought of you Bev when I saw this. Did you ever meet him? Never heard of Pele until I saw him on the Wide World of Sports. Remember that show?
