Ready for our evening with Andrew Downie and former Fulham FC player Les Strong!
Pelé was one of the most iconic sports figures of the 20th century and along with Muhammad Ali its most beloved. His achievements speak for themselves: aged just 17, he led Brazil to its first world title, scoring six times in three games; he remains the only player to have won the World Cup three times; his astonishing record of more than 1,200 goals has never been surpassed. But numbers only tell half the story. In ‘Epic’, veteran football correspondent Andrew Downie delves deep into Pelé’s life. Through interviews with former teammates, coaches, business managers, close friends, and family members, Downie uncovers the man behind the myth.
