Pele is the number one player in the story of soccer.He won the World cup three time with Brazil and fans loved him.He wasn't only a good soccer player,and teacher.He loved young people,too.He worked for UNICEF.He worked for world's children.

I didn't know about him,but Now I like him so much.
Few days ago,The world Cup ended.I didn't know so much about it,but I saw on TV that each team did wonderful job in the ceremony.One of their speech was the clitisism of nuclear.I was moved to see it.I think Pele is the pionner of this movement.He is a great man.People never forget him. ( )
