1. Pelé

Any list of soccer's all-time greats begins and ends with Pele, whose supernatural gifts raised the bar for what was possible on the pitch. Just 17 when he burst on the scene with Brazil's first World Cup victory in 1958, he missed much of the '62 title defense to injury, but led the charge with a Golden Ball-winning performance as the Seleção cruised to their third victory in four tries in 1970. Meanwhile, he dazzled crowds at home and when his Santos club toured the world, earning the nickname "O Rei" (The King) for his sublime efforts. Pelé is credited with 1,283 career goals, and while many of them came in semi-formal competition, the mind-boggling total emphasizes his celestial ranking in the game's history.
