A hero of Brazil and an icon around the world, through sheer skill, grace and charisma, he was football's first modern superstar. Pel made football look easy. He turned the sport he loved into a work of art, and the world stopped whenever the ball was at his feet. In his death, football has lost its King, and the world has lost a legend.
