Brazilian soccer great Pelé turns 80, isolated at home
(AP Photo, File)SAO PAULO – Brazilian soccer great Pelé turns 80 on Friday, but the celebration will have to wait. He also has residences in Santos and Sao Paulo. But the Paris Saint-Germain striker trails far behind when it comes to World Cup titles, which Pelé won in 1958, 1962 and 1970. The Brazilian received the most votes from members of the soccer body, while the Argentine prevailed in an online vote. That was also part of the 50th anniversary celebrations of Brazil’s 1970 World Cup triumph, which was for many the greatest moment of Pelé’s decorated career.
