The ITV commentary team in Mexico comprised Hugh Johns, Gerald Sinstadt, Gerry Harrison and Roger Malone (all pictured below). Billy Wright joined Johns as co-commentator, England captain Bobby Moore co-commentated on a semi-final and the final. Brian Moore stayed behind in London to present the programmes. Wed 03/Jun/1970 Brazil 4 (Rivelino, Pelé, Jairzinho 2) Czechoslovakia 1 (Petráš) Group 3 (11pm bst) ITV LIVE Hugh Johns & Billy Wright *Four matches tonight and again they all kicked-off at the same time. Commentator for highlights of Brazil/Czechoslovakia on BBC1 was David Coleman, the match is best remembered for Pelé's attempt to lob the keeper from the half way line (missing by a whisker). Broadcast hours were the same as the previous night. Sun 07/Jun/1970 Brazil 1 (Jairzinho) England 0 Group 3 (7pm bst) ITV LIVE Billy Wright & Hugh Johns *The favourites vs the holders, and the most keenly anticipated match of the group round. Both channels showed it live - BBC1 were first on air at 6:20-8:55pm (with David Coleman commentating), ITV were on from 6:45-9:10pm. Ten minutes into the match England keeper Gordon Banks made the most famous and seemingly impossible save of all time, diving to the foot of his far post to scoop a downward Pelé header up and over the bar, Jairzinho scored on the hour by finishing off a fine move involving Tostao and Pelé, England then made a double substitution and within minutes of coming on both players had missed great chances, first Alan Ball who misskicked and then a terrible miss by Geoff Astle in front of a practically open goal. There were also some iconic masterly tackles by England captain Bobby Moore in which he dispossessed Pelé and robbed Jairzinho inside the penalty box. Wed 10/Jun/1970 Brazil 3 (Pelé 2, Jairzinho) Romania 2 (Dumitrac, Dembrovschi) Group 3 (11pm bst) ITV LIVE Hugh Johns & Billy Wright *Brazil v Romania was live on both ITV (from 10:45pm) and BBC1 (also 10:45pm, David Coleman commentating). Brazil only needed a draw to secure first place, but the win did England a favour. Sun 14/Jun/1970 Brazil 4 (Rivelino, Tostão 2, Jairzinho) Peru 2 (Gallardo, Cubillas) (7pm bst) ITV Highlights Gerald Sinstadt *Brazil were 2-0 up early on with goals on 11 and 18 minutes, Peru were back in it at 2-1 on 28, Brazil scored again on 52, Peru on 69, Brazil then finished the scoring at 4-2 on 76. Ken Wolstenholme commentated for the BBC. Wed 17/Jun/1970 Brazil 3 (Clodoaldo, Jairzinho, Rivelino) Uruguay 1 (Cubilla) (11pm bst) ITV LIVE Gerald Sinstadt & Bobby Moore *ITV's Semi-final day coverage began with a preview programme at 5:45-6:30pm, the live broadcast started at 10:30pm. ITV and BBC tossed a coin for first pick of the semi's, ITV won and opted for the Brazil tie. BBC1 broadcast delayed coverage of Brazil/Uruguay from around 1:20am with Ken Wolstenholme commentating. The match is best remembered for a near miss when Pelé dummied the keeper by letting the ball run one side of the keeper whilst he ran around the other, regrettably his finishing effort was wide, otherwise it would have been a very strong contender for the greatest goal ever scored. Sun 21/Jun/1970 Brazil 4 (Pelé, Gérson, Jairzinho, Carlos Alberto) Italy 1 (Boninsegna) (7pm bst) ITV LIVE Hugh Johns & Bobby Moore *The build up on ITV began with a preview programme at 2-3pm, the live coverage began at 6:45pm and was due to end at 9:10pm. Ken Wolstenholme commentated for BBC1 whose live coverage began at 6pm (they also had a preview show at 2-3:30pm which probably included highlights of the 3rd/4th play off). Both nations were seeking to win the Jules Rimet trophy for keeps having each won the competition twice before, Pelé opened the scoring for Brazil on 18 mins by heading in a lobbed Rivelino cross from the left, Italy then equalised on 37 when Roberto Boninsegna stole the ball from a defender attempting a fancy back heel. In the 2nd half, Brazil went close with a free-kick just outside the box which saw Rivelino strike the cross bar before Gérson struck a sweet left footer to restore the lead at 2-1 on 66 mins. A long high ball into the box on 71 was headed down by Pelé and Jairzinho scrambled home to become the first player to have scored in every World cup finals match through to the final. Finally, Brazil scored probably the most awesome goal ever seen, a delightful build up found Jairzinho on the left wing, he played it inside to Pelé who was standing just outside the 'D', Pelé then appeared to pass the ball into no-man's land on the right, but suddenly - from out of nowhere - Carlos Alberto came flying into view and lashed the ball into the net for 4-1, beautiful. Perhaps that goal on 87 mins would not have looked quite so spectacular had it been in 16:9 ratio widescreen rather than 4:3, but it was a fabulous way to end the tournament.

Pele actually has 7 ​@@ninovella3721

Already the GOAT but he became the undisputed one after this World Cup. He was way past his prime/peak and many had already said he was no longer a footballer but a ‘retired’ ‘old’ ‘washed’ player, the 1970 WC was the ultimate farewell. If he was never injured in 58, 62, 66 we could have seen even something greater.

They talk about these players today, no one was better than Pele period.

Pelé dejó varios parámetros para los que vengan después: Campeón mundial a los 18 años Campeón mundial de clubes a los 21 años Usaba los 2 pies y sabía cabecear con doble ritmo. Tri campeón mundial a los 30 años 1000 goles a los 30 años Atleta del siglo XX . Terminó su carrera con 1,283 goles. Jugó en los 5 continentes!!! Alguien más? NADIE, NADIE!!!

@@jasoncatzim5981 Offside rule was actually more stringent in Pele’s playing career than it is today. The offside rule was initially introduced way back in 1863 - stating that a player was offside unless at least three players of the opposing side were in front of him. This was changed in 1925. The amended law stated that a player would be offside unless at least two opponents - including the goalkeeper - were in front of him. And that rule wasn’t changed until 1990 when a player was deemed onside as long as they were level with the last man. Pele played between 1957 and 1977. Not only would the offside rule have been in use during that period, but he would also have had to time his runs far better than players in the modern era. Else, being level with an opponent would’ve made him offside. Do your own research.

@@Libzalii Pele's prime was 62-66. That was why he was put out of those World Cups. His goal against Mexico in 62 was better than any of Maradona's in 86 because he did not seize upon broken play to take on committed players, but went directly to the goal..through tackles in the manner of Ronaldo 1.0 in 1998. Against Boca in 63 he was kicked repeatedly, but one goal and assist sealed the deal at the Bonbonera, where nobody outside of Argentina ever won then.

With more efficient refereeing Brazil could have more than doubled their goal tally from the penalty spot. Incredible the number of chance they created and the number of fouls committed on Pele - the Greatest.

Someone just commented to me the Pele was just like Haaland. hahaha Let's put it this way, the best of Messi + Maradonna + Ronaldo #7 + Cryuff = Pelé He could dribble, had two good feet, could head, had vision, could finish and a superb temperament.

This is an exaggeration he was really complete but didn’t have the best attribute of each player . Doesn’t have the shooting technique of cr7 or his jump , doesn’t have the control in tight spaces at a high speed of Messi , doesn’t have the lower body strength and ball protection of Maradona

Great footage brilliant exciting commentary Love to see more of this Nothing like the original TV commentary

Tremendous pioneering exploits and a beautiful era in not just footballing terms, but overall. Now, what’s amazing to observe was the cosmic evolution that football underwent in only 4 years from this point to the WC of 1974 with the advent of “total football”. It was the very clear turning point from the archaic to the modern, almost on par to the technological exploits of the 40’s and 50’s and later the 90’s onwards from analogue to digital. A tremendous advancement, as beautiful and innocent as this era was.

Pelé fue maravilloso con edad se preparó fuerte y fue fundamental para Brasil campeón Pelé será rey y seguirá siendo el rey y dios único del fútbol. Nació Jesús nació Pelé y punto que sigan llorando y largando veneno jajajaja. Yo y muchos con una sonrisa en los labios siempre. Uruguay. 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄😄

This brazil was simple and stong. Pele could not have played with a man like Neymar. The rythme and the vision of Pele and this brazil was the goal. Only that was important. And they were speed and quick. They would have lost time with Neymar. Pere is a serious player. Ronaldo Christiano would be his better man, Halland, Mbappe. Those guys would be ok for his vision. The goal. And that team would be unbeatable

Gracias Rey Pelé !!!

Rip legend Pele, God rest his soul

Amazing performance, hands down one of the top five in WC history, and at least four not signaled penalties against him. Who's the narrator?

What Pele was able to do in 1970 on those lumpy old pitches with those heavy old balls and with much less referee protection than modern players ...

The hair on the back of your kneck would stand on air back in those world cup days, when Pelé, Charlton, Eusébio, Beckenbauer, Cruyff, Maradona, got on the ball. You expected to see " greatness " & got just *_that_* , to solidify their status as the best of their era... Never felt that, watching the two best players of the last ten years. Messi & Ronaldo, at world cups, as they've been mostly underwhelming.

I’m only 19. But Pele is the greatest

G.O.A.T

Sadly children and troll social media accounts today try to discredit him so much. He played in an era where u could be kicked to hell and with crap balls boots half the technology aiding attackers a harsher offside rule and poor surfaces. Yet he did skills never seen before that are still imitated today, he was decades ahead of his time and the fact he played similar in appearance to players now with the above context is outrageous he played in a top league and hammered the best European sides not v farmers. He was overall with his dribbles playmaking near goals and goals and assists the best player in 1970 despite millers G+A tally just edging him. The only one who can compare is Messi and even I have to question if he can surpass pele due to his World Cup domination and performance. We will see this year.
