Hi bro, who is your editor?
React to "OS MELHORES JOGOS DE ALTINHA NUNCA POSTADOS" e "Girl Secret Stuff - Altinha Feminina no Rio de Janeiro. These videos show beach culture in Brazil, which involves football played by adults and children, men and women: czcams.com/video/63e-TZSjTuI/video.html e czcams.com/video/0ZQpHh0jhSs/video.html
Yup broke it down perfectly… Brazil became known globally through their athletes. This inspires the youngins to become athletes as they have so many that paved the path before them. On top of it being one of only paths out of poverty, low cost of entry, etc.
Brazil is not just favelas though..Thats actually a minority of players that comes from there😅

It’s all thanks to street football, they are the textbook definition of street dribblers. The only exception being Ronaldo ig.
@@papatrollofficial1 match doesnt determine history
If you compared 2002 brazil vs croatia who would win
@@Uwaisillas1 Croatia would win
A factor that's usually missed about Brazil is the fact that it's HUGE. This is the only country with over 200 million people that has football as the national sport. So in addition to everything you brilliantly said in this video, Brazil has a giant pool of talent that inevitably will produce world class players.
Now, if you want to be really surprised, think about Uruguay. No other country in the world has more world classe players per capita.
Yeah, that's a great point!
Croatia and Netherlands also have a good player per capita
Portugal🫢🫢🫢🫢

Makes me wonder why China and India are garbage at football. the fact that there are BILLIONS of people but their teams are less than mediocre is mind boggling.
I'm not even Brazilian but i love Brazilian football. The world is a better place when Brazilian football is thriving.
Lies again? American Education Grab Brazil
I'm Brazilian and I've spent my whole life thinking about this. You summed up my thinking very well. In general, those who play on a futsal field touch the ball 6x more than playing on a football field, and if you touch, you improve.
those who play on a futsal field touch the ball 6x more than playing on a futsal field....uh what? did you mean football field?
@@nivajaranjit4322yea he did
@@nivajaranjit4322futsal is on a pitch less than half a football field that's what he means
what did he mean by those who play on a "futsal field" touch the ball 6x more than playing on a "futsal field×2"?
@@nivajaranjit4322 the average footballer makes 4 minutes of contact with the ball, on a smaller pitch with less players this is definitely going to increase since you touch it more, that's why basketball has four quarters and infinite subs; to prevent players getting tired coz on a smaller pitch, you are going to touch the ball more, it's not that hard to understand if you actually want to.
A lot of factors go into it. Brazil 🇧🇷 is beautiful to watch. Love and respect to Brazil from a Romanian 🇷🇴
mulțumesc🇷🇴❤️
Obrigado Romênia! Muito amor e respeito para a Romênia do Brasil!
Its not just kids in the favela who are obsessed with football. I'm from the upper-middle class and 90% of the kids my age used to play football regularly. If there wasnt a court we'd spread our flip flops on an empty street to create a makeshift goal area, and that's what we would play
Yes, this video is a lot of lies... Pele grew up thousands of miles from any ocean or beach... Neymar wasn't super rich but his dad played pro soccer, he grew up in a house in the Sao Paulo state not a slum and not in Rio de Janiero... Ronaldinho's older brother played for Gremio where he played from around age 6... the best players are identified at a young age and then given food, money, school and are trained in the clubs by former big-time pros, usually their dads. This video is a lot of lies, hype, fantasy, and stereo types.
@@VenturaITThe way I see by saying favela his intention was poverty which is true. Pelé, Garrincha, Didi, R Carlos, Rivaldo and from the real favela in Rio. Will start with Romário, Adriano, Ronaldo is an example things are not quite the way you say, got turn down by Flamengo. The club gave him their lame reason, could not give him around U$ 20 monthly for his bus fare. Nobody goes and join the club without going thru the sieve, have no idea if you know what it is and how is done I was invited for a try by one of those looking for..olheiros..kid with potential or chance. They still exist and are out there digging trying to find one gold nugget. He saw me playing twice on the beach and asked me. I said no thanks will be moving to California next week, would never make it anyway, besides had all set to try make it my way. Knew I was better than most of the group, many were from the favela Galo, and my friends. Agree on he trying to make more like a fable
Here you don't even find kids, and we have a football court that fits a 5 against 5 always empty. Not a pretty sight
@@marcospaulo_marcos vc claramente dá kkkkkkk
a big difference is that in brazil you are encouraged to improvise and dribble especially in 1 on 1 situations, where as other coutries want you to play it safe and pass the ball off.... they dont got the sauce like that
The first time I saw videos of barefooted street football, I thought it was Brazilian Favelas but to my surprise, it was Angolan Favelas, though an ocean apart you can see where Brazilians inherited and perfected their amazing footwork, Brazilians and Angolans share a common ancestor hence the similarities.
Brazilian here. First of all, amazing video, great edits and information. Just a correction. The first football club in Brazil to accept and stand up for blacks and minorities was Vasco da Gama. Vasco literally left their soccer division because they would not remove blacks from their roster as it was demanded by the organization to allow them to compete. They wrote a letter to the main league association explaining they would remove their team from the ranking instead of removing blacks. That letter is known as "A Resposta Historica" (The historic answer") . Cheers!!Subscribed to your channel
Boa tarde amigo. Thank you for that, very interestng!
If that is true, I apologise for the error. I must have been mislead in my research.
Besides the alleged Vasco history, Bangu was indeed the first one
Then you also know that most of the players listed did not ever live near a favela which means Rio slums... Pele grew up in a house in Minas Gerais thousand of miles from any beach and his dad was an ex pro with a lot of goals and then he lived in Santos which is 12 hours from Rio by bus. Neymar grew up in a houses around the Sao Paulo interior and then around Santos and was at Real Madrid by age 12... Ronaldinho was on Gremio from as soon as he could play, probably from 6 years old playing high level club soccer for Gremio where his older brother played (not playing on the streets and beach alot.) This fantasy and stereotype about players playing on the beach is just mostly lies and stereotypes... the best players are identified from a young age and brought up in major clubs with huge budgets and given money, school, housing and more from a young age... the reason Brazil is so good is that Brazilians love soccer, they have winning style, and Brazil is a huge country... even grandmothers love soccer in Brazil, the love of soccer in Brazil is unlike any other country in the world... It's not because they lived in the slums and played on the street and beach (Pele grew up thousands of miles from any beach) Everyone in Brazil goes around in flipflops due to the weather, not because they are poor.... Ronadlo Phenomenon is one of the only ones listed that I know was actualy from Rio and possibly grew up in a favela, but he was from a suburb of Rio not one of the direct Rio favelas, so this video is a lot of fantasy, lies, hype, exageration, and stereo types.
There were blacks in all clubs, but they all, black or white, had to pay to play. It was an amateur sport. When professionals came on board, Bangu was the first one. What Vasco did was pretend the professionals were amateurs, breaking the rules of the tournament and for this was excluded.
Other countries see football as routine. But there is something unique about brazil. The love and passion they have for football is amazing. The fact that many of them come from poor families makes it even more beautiful. They are the joy of the game.
I'm proud brazil team fan since 2006 when i was only 8 years old ( and realmadrid in the club )

@@IamJr86 they have forgotten their owner okocha
@@mythst.is.a.baller fr
😂 yeah because NBA players and European footballers all come from middle class and rich families. 😂
There is one major factor that its not in the video: the closeness to Argentina and Uruguay. No, I'm not saying that Brazl has Argentina and Uruguay to thank for their football, or only in the level of competing against this national teams and the clubs, but actually a huge system where players from these 3 countries affect and influence each other constantly. It is known how Rivellino influenced Maradona's style, how Ronaldinho and Maradona absolutely admired each other, Messi being friend of both Ronaldinho and Neymar, and the Suarez, Messi, Neymar trident just to give a few examples. The borders between these 3 countries tend to blur football-wise, and the influences between them all are clear.
That's a very interesting way of thinking... thanks for sharing!
You're right, I'm brazilian and the team which i support has one argentinian and two urugaios on it, btw we have an argentinian player here who plays for Fluminense, named Germán Cano, he is a amazing player scoring more than 40 goals in a season, and there's no one who hates him because he is very kind, this connection between Brasil, Argentina and Uruguai is just wonderful.
Brazil is so big, you hardly ever see a foreigner there at least up until the 2000's... they have their own football system that is independent and not really like the other countries, Brazil speak PORTUGUESE not Spanish so there isn't a lot of cultural or shared following of Spanish speaking clubs from other south american countries, the Brazilians love Brazilian clubs... there have been 4-8 Sao Paulo State League clubs in the final of the FIFA Club World Cup, this is more than England, Spain, Germany each, and this is just from one state of Brazil and there are man other state leagues in Brazil... this is why they are so good, due to their size and system the weather and they love soccer more than any other country, you will hardly ever find even an old woman in Brazil who doesn't love soccer... it's called the country of soccer for a reason.
@@VenturaITI know they speak Portuguese and not Spanish, dunno what has to do with my point though. There are barely if none Brazilians playing in Argentina and Uruguay too, but the influence of Brazil in both countries is pretty clear too
@@VenturaITalso, the 2000s was 20 years ago, my man, there are plenty of foreigners in the Brazilian league now
Brazilian kids from the 2000s looked up to Neymar, including me, kids from the 90s looked up to Ronaldinho, kids from the 80s looked up to Ronaldo, and kids from the 70s looked up to Romario. I wonder who the kids from 2010s look up to now.
Mbappe Bellingham and Vinnie Jr that's who I see most kids trolling online
Probably Vinicius
This is the same reason why Harry Maguire is so gifted. I actually think he may be Brazilian.
😂😂😂
His name is too strange for a Brazilian tho
Hairy Maguire, the new brazilian hair cut, down under.
Harrinho
Harry Maguire da Silva
Brazil needs to prove themselves again, they have not been the same since that 7 to 1 thrashing by Germany.
Am Ugandan but I support Brazil and this video is so on point, thanks buddy❤❤❤
Love how the passport is side by side with Ronaldinho 0:54

@@LuchoZone ronaldinho was arrested cause he was traveling with a fake passport. Here in BR, we belive that he did it cause the only championship that he did not played yet is the prision one.
Learning about how football arrived in Brazil, it's just incredible how they became so great at this game. The link with their team mates seems telepathic & moves unfold with a liquid beauty that only Argentina can lay claim to having similar powers
I can't believe i'm typing this but,
You broke my passive "no comment online rule" without a single sweat. I mean damn man, goosebump everywhere. So much so that I didn't want the video essay to end.
This is probably because as a Nigerian born and raised London dweller, Every single one of your insightful exploration of the Brazilians unbridled love if not obsessive relationship with footbal deeply resonated with me on a spiritual level. As it is the perfect reflection of Nigerian's love and passion for music, art and fashion. For just like these magnificent Brazilians you just cased studied, Nigerians love if not obsession music(along side art and fashion) isn't even a matter of dreams and passion, instead, it's simply a one way ticket out of what seems like an inevitable life long destitution. Except for the sad reality that theres isn't any true unity and or genuine community built around music, (again, alongside art and fashion) down there in Nigeria. Which to a certain degree is understandable, because music is more subjective than football. bUt even more importantly, the music, art and fashion requires a certain degree of egoism and or selfism if one is to be successful. But still, it touches and resonated with my soul.
Anyways, I think all I'm trying to say is,
Thanks you for sharing this inspirational work of passion with the world. May you continue to remain blessed all your life......
Love you Man.
Very well said. Thank you for your kind words, and you make some great points too!
Even though i'm really far from Nigeria and it's probably one of the last places where you guys would end up, literally at the end of the world (i'm from Chile), i've met one Nigerian guy out here.
The first thing i did notice about him was how fucking fresh and sharply dressed he was, always looking for a new combination or accesory for his outfits, he's pretty well known, everyone loves him and just walking alongside him means stopping every 10 or so seconds because someone is happy to see him. They call him "Dandy"/"Jimmy P", i'm not sure if the Dandy thing is precisaly from Nigeria but just googling it shows up dudes dressed really similar to him !
I am Brazilian and I totally understand you. My favorite artist in the world is Fela Kuti. Brazil has much influence from Nigeria because many Nigerians helped building this country (sadly, in the context of slavery, but still true).
@@GABIdotGABI Arrrrrrr, Mr Fela Anikulapo Kuti still leaving his impression of pride everywhere, for his my favourite artist too. Except i only prefer listening to him occasionally but for days on streaks. Weird I know, (Butthats somewhat because I’m always needing to listen to all types of music for flow, lyrics, subject matter inspiration (I’m an artist myself). But still, I’m quite curious Gabi, as to how you’ve came across his music, and as the lyrics weren’t in your first language, what then about his music actually got you so invested in his audible art to make him one of your favourite artists?
@@malcormwalker8176 The first time I heard about Fela Kuti was at university. The black movement in Brazil seeks to teach Brazilians a little about the history and culture of African countries and, despite being white and of Polish descent, I feel above all Brazilian, I recognize and admire the African roots of my country. On the wall of my university someone from the black movement wrote "Escute Fela Kuti" which means "Listen to Fela Kuti". So I looked for it and fell in love with the musical quality. Later I watched a documentary with my friends and was impressed by Fela's love for freedom, humanism, dedication to art and political awareness. 2 weeks ago Seun Kuti made a concert here in São Paulo and I went to watch him with my friends.
Why did you leave out Roberto Carlos? He’s also a Brazilian legend
There are so many legends that wouldn't fit in the video, he said the main brazilian players
He would run out of space if he named all of them.
I was expecting to see Zico & Romario

i'm brazilian and the reason we play so well is that we were born and the first and most important thing for most kids in brazil is football which is also our favorite sport and anyone has the dream of becoming a player.
Most of these players did not live in a favela, probably only Ronaldo phenomenon. Pele grew up thousands of miles from a beach in a house and his dad was a former pro who scored 800 goals I think and had a job. Neymar never lived in a favela and Ronaldinho was on Gremio from as early as possible maybe age 6 where his older brother played. They weren't out on the beach cutting up their feet on the sand like the local kids do who never play for the big clubs, almost none of those street players ever play for a big club actually... this video is a lot of lies and stereo types. Neymar was at Real Madrid by age 12 with a $1 million offer but returned to play for Santos.
it's the life of hardship that turns them into a gold. they work their way up to make a name for themselves and create their own fortune.
Some fun facts and personal impressions from a Brazilian, to add some things to the conversation.
The strong connection we see today between futsal moves and 11-a-side football, I think, comes more strongly in the 1990s. I remember the most skilled players here in Brazil in the early 90s and it was a different style, they slapped the side of the ball more often with their feet. At the end of the 90s, players who had more of a futsal style (and they actually started in futsal) began to join the national team, such as Ronaldo and Ronaldinho, who roll the ball with the sole of their foot, a typical futsal movement. And these players got an influential role on the next generations.
Futsal in the old days (1980s) had a super heavy ball, so rolling the ball was super practical, even more so if we played on a cement court, which had more friction, so slapping the side of the ball used up more energy. While, in a large field and with irregular terrain, the conditions were different, plus we have more space on the big field. I remember when I was a kid in 1980s people saying that playing in irregular terrain improve ball control, and to carry the ball while you run.
I think it makes sense for us to see more futsal movements today. The population went from 90 million in 1970 to more than 210 million in 2020. And Brazil became a more urban country last century. The biggest cities grew a lot.
The neighborhood where I live, on the outskirts of São Paulo (the most populous city in the country nowadays), had small plantations and several grass soccer fields 50 years ago back. Those football fields no longer exist, eveything is city now, today those football fields are tall buildings, we see more people. And more futsal courts. But there are still smaller cities that cultivate a more classic style, the country's territory is very large and does not only have dense favelas like the ones we see in those image of the hills in Rio de Janeiro.
Greetings from Brazil! Lots of luck to you, bro!⚽🤗
Would that skillful player be Dener Jogado from Portoguesa?
Bro wrote a whole documentary
Next: Why are Argentine footballers great dribblers? They may not be skillful like their Brazilian neighbours but they sure know how to maneuver the ball.
I think its less a matter of skill but of personality. At least as I see it they are more disciplined and pragmatic.
yes, I'm Brazilian and I have a theory that Argentines have a lot of European influence, they play a game that mixes beauty and efficiency, while we Brazilians are concerned with seeing good entertainment instead of a game of 6 goals without any dribbling
Desde criança, o sonho da maioria dos meninos é se tornar jogador de futebol, algo que raramente acontece, porque você precisa ser o melhor do melhor no brasil, pois nós temos um futebol muito competitivo.
Brazilian football is strong, it comes with great talent and a strong culture, since not everyone is able to have a good life, so everyone who believes ends up giving their all to achieve the dream, but football is becoming increasingly virtual, this could get worse, someday, wait...
You didn’t even mention the competitive spirit that we Brazilians carry. That’s what sets us apart.
Kkk verdade. No FIFA eu sou competitivo pra crlh
Man sometimes I envy those locations. Living in the U.S. to caribbean football parents leads to alot of loneliness since nobody else wants to play with you.
football is in Brazilian 's blood . Even Brazil's gk can dribble . Nowadays Argentina changes there playing style as European Style but it is not for Brazil . The do Samba Style what we love,. In the beginning The king Pele Socretis Garrincha , then THE MAGICIAN Ronaldinho , Ronaldo , rivaldo & now our heartbeat the prince NEYMI . All are the gems ❤️❤️Noone can compare with there raw talent
I really love their passion for the game. Much love from Nigeria.
As a Brazilian who breathes football, I want to say that you are right, overcoming day-to-day challenges in our country makes these athletes much stronger mentally
Nice documentary, I hope to see more!
8:32 got me smiling
Ronaldinho and Nigerian player J J Okocha shaped my picture of a great player.
Sadly the Messi and Ronaldo era have shifted interests to statistics
Thank You! I've got another one coming soon... stay tuned!
Btw I agree, people used to watch football with their eyes, social media has changed it all
Se were 2 great football artists. Okocha was pure genius and never attended a football academy.

This was a very well presented video, from the start I was impressed with your style and narration. Subscribed.
amazing editing, amazing narration, amazing video.. this should have gone viral man. subbed
Brazilians are so good at football as they are fascia driven not muscle driven, all top football players who are pros are fascia driven. They developed this through playing football barefoot since childhood. In the west or 1st world countries we grow up wearing shoes so our fascia system is dysfunctional. Fascia driven athletes are effortless n they play naturally, not through any training, but by only playing football the whole day only.
Except most of the players in modern age from Brazil don't play a lot barefoot... they are identified by huge clubs at an early age. This video is a lot of lies and fantasy and stereotypes. Most of these players did not live in a favela, probably only Ronaldo phenomenon. Pele grew up thousands of miles from a beach in a house and his dad was a former pro who scored 800 goals I think and had a job.

Neymar was at Real Madrid by age 12 with a $1 million offer but returned to play for Santos. The video is correct that they play a lot of futsal which is basically indoor soccer, but so does Europe, and asia, and eastern europe and other countries and they aren't as good as Brazil... Brazil is good because they have a mix of African and European and they have a style that focuses on skill rather than brute force like in Germany and they have weather to play year-round and they have a huge country and in the 1990's they had over 600 pro clubs to find and scout all the players.
@@VenturaITStop spamming
Great video topic great excecution. Watched the whole thing and when i saw you only had 950 subscribers its fair to say i was surprised, keep up the good work 👍
Brazil's greatest strength is also their greatest disadvantage which is that they play the game in a beautiful way. They focus more on 1v1s, individual brilliance and playmaking rather than pure tactics that often result in a robotic like football (modern football). Sometimes you see them trying to mimic the Italian defensive tactics but they usually fail in that department.
Bro this was a good video man, the edits especially, I loved them. Im striving to get somewhere near your level
Amazing video bro!! Obrigado mano 🇧🇷

R9 greatest footballer ever
One piece of information, Kaká came from a very rich family, Ronaldinho is the brother of Assis, a very successful soccer player. There are some exceptions regarding poor origin

@@VenturaIT Adriano, Romario,Vini jr comes from kind . is a favela.We have favelas in São Paulo. Actually we have all over the country
@@markriobr yes, I said some come from favelas, some do not, maybe most do not, but I didn't do a formal study... it depends on your definition of favela... Neymar's dad was a pro soccer player from before he was born... do pro soccer players live in Favelas? They lived in Praia Grande at one point when Neymar was young... but once the player is discovered then they are given money by the big clubs and agents and normal housing, which is the case of most of these players, like Ronaldinho his older brother was a well paid player for Gremio and Ronaldinho can be seen as a young boy wearing the Gremio uniform... they were already wealthy probably when Ronaldinho was born.
Caio, Pato, Junior, Juan and some more. True Caio and Kaká both came from wealthy family, all others from a solid based family. Bet they had a rough time with their parents to make their dream come true
@@VenturaIT Favelas and poor parts of many cities are the same. Favelas are build over hills and small mountains, also in flat lands. Now the name is from Rio. Ronaldinho had a good life only because his brother Assis, was a good player and made good money. Sure is a smart person and not lost money like most do.R9 after his try at Flamengo, was told he could stay but had to pay for the bus. His parents did not had money to pay for it. Cafu was turn out for all clubs he tried, never gave up and made it. The true is most of our players grew up being poor

I remember being beaten by my parents everytime I picked up a ball or a drawing pad. According to them, even if I we're good at the my talents, they feared that I'd waste my life away trying be the best at what I loved. I still love them and I know they were only doing thier best but I honestly wished I could've just kept going to practice when my coach begged me to regardless of the consequences. To the younger folks who read this, whatever it is that you are good at, never let anything or anyone stop you from mastering it. Never be afraid to take that step to greatness. In ten to 15 years you will look in the mirror and thank yourself for being bold enough to defy the odds 😢❤❤❤

@@rightwrite7297 I'm Jamaican. But I understand. Both our cultures are similar. Parents will try to suffocate thier kids with their own goals and ambitions and wonder why they are unhappy as adults. I still love my folks regardless. But it sucks to keep thinking of the what ifs. The thought of not achieving my dreams keeps me up at night, but it's all in the past now 🤷
@oshiondagreat2306 I swear, over the years I have noticed the striking similarities between Nigerians and Jamaicans.
Anyway, on the issue of broken dreams and fulfilment, I have to say that the imagining of what could have been, the thought of what-if, is one of the most painful things anyone can experience.
In my case, I was blessed with financial acumen, selling hand-drawn comics and saving money around 7/8 years old, playing football passionately from before that age, doing very well at school from the age of 13, while lifting weights in my own room to lose weight and build muscle. I sat the SATs and TOEFL exams in Lagos, Nigeria, to study in the US at 17, obtained high scores, but was not allowed to pursue my dreams by my dad. He never really supported my dreams, but what can we do? We just have to live on and try to achieve and make progress where we can.
But the what-ifs are a motherf#@#er.

Lucho, talk about Vasco da Gama. The football club that Pelé cheered for, and the club who fought against racism. Pelé said once that if it wasn't for Vasco da Gama, he wouldn't be able to play football. Pelé also played for Vasco when he was 15/16 years old.
Huge club with the most beautiful history in the football.
No, he never played for Vasco. Pele was from Minas Gerais, thousands of miles from where Vasco is located in Rio de Janeiro. Pele grew up thousands of miles from any beach or ocean. He grew up in a house, not a favela and not a slum, his dad was an ex pro who scored 800 goals and had a job. He wasn't the poorest and wasn't rich, but not begging for food either. He ONLY played for two clubs during his career: Santos in Brazil and Cosmos in New York... Most of these players did not actually live in a favela, probably only Ronaldo phenomenon. Pele grew up thousands of miles from a beach in a house and his dad was a former pro who scored 800 goals I think and had a job. Neymar never lived in a favela and Ronaldinho was on Gremio from as early as possible maybe age 6 where his older brother played. They weren't out on the beach cutting up their feet on the sand like the local kids do who never play for the big clubs, almost none of those street players ever play for a big club actually... this video is a lot of lies and stereo types. Neymar was at Real Madrid by age 12 with a $1 million offer but returned to play for Santos.
@@VenturaIT Pelé played four matches for Vasco
@@davidp22t_YT When did he play for Vasco? Where can I read about it? He played a friendly game for Flamengo, I knew that...
"RIO DE JANEIRO, March 3 (Xinhua) -- Brazil legend Pele has been named an honorary member of Vasco da Gama, despite having never played for the club.
The 80-year-old received two Vasco shirts - one with his famous No. 10 and the other with the No. 80 - and a plaque certifying the decision, sources said on Wednesday.
Pele represented only two clubs throughout his professional career - Santos and New York Cosmos - but he has never hidden his affection for Vasco da Gama.
In an interview with the Brazilian CZcams channel Pilhado last year, the former forward revealed that he had supported the Rio de Janeiro side as a child.
"Most of my friends and my father's friends were Corinthians fans," he said. "I don't know why I started to follow Vasco, but I am a Vasco fan. I played for Santos, but I have the right to choose [my favorite team]. I never stopped supporting Vasco."
The only man to win three FIFA World Cups, Pele is regarded as one of the greatest ever footballers. In 2000, he shared the award for FIFA's best player of the 20th century with Argentine great Diego Maradona, who died last November aged 60." - xinhuanet
It's possible he just said that to be nice, but I have friends who are Vasco fans too.

"Bilé adored football. He eventually became a goalkeeper and played for Vasco da São Lourenço. A local man would take his young son, only 3 or 4 years old, to watch training sessions. The boy, then known as Edson Arantes do Nascimento, liked playing in goal and whenever he made a save, he would call out his hero’s name. Except that he mangled the name, changing the B to a P: “Pilé, Pilé.” When the boy then moved to Bauru in the state of São Paulo, his Minas Gerais accent meant his teammates misheard his shout. And so was born the most famous nickname in football: Pelé." - Sports Illustrated
This was when he was a young kid and in the Minais Gerais state which is 1500 miles from Rio de Janeiro where Vasco da Gama is located. I can't find anything that shows that Pele played professionally or as an adult for Vasco da Gama in Rio de Janeiro, ever. But I don't know everything, prove me wrong. It would be interesting...
@@VenturaIT No... Pele played in the "Torneio do Morumbi" for Vasco da Gama, in 1957. Vasco da Gama was in a tour in Europe and didn't have players to dispute this tournament. Santos agreed to loan Pele for Vasco during this tournament, before people know that Pele was that good.

As a brazilian i can talk about it, the children who were born between 1980-2010 just wanted ot play football all the time, when I was a child I was crazy about playing professionally, during my childhood I always had contact with football, so basically we are introduced to football since young and according of the 10.000-hour rule, we spent a lot of hours playing, so we became good at it
I am Brazilian the only thing what make we be different to another countrys is the passion and happy feeling we got to play futbol with quality nothing else i born in favela also but this dont have nothing to do we are good becouse we got God in our side and the sport there is about passion we are futbol.
