He won three World Cups for Brazil in 1958, 1962, and 1970. According to his autobiography, Pele got his name for mispronouncing the name of Vasco da Gama goalkeeper Bile and calling him Pile. Pele’s friends teased him about the name and it stuck. <\/p>\n

Pele is an ambassador to the game of soccer throughout the world and in an article from Men’s Fitness even his game led to a 48 hour cease fire between two factions in the 1967 Nigerian Civil War to watch him play. Pele played for Santos (Brazil) and the New York Cosmos. <\/p>\n

\u00e2\u0096\u00baGiovanni dos Santos<\/p>\n

<\/b> Fans of the “el tri”, the Mexican National team, can thank Brazilian soccer player Gerardo dos Santos “Zizinho” for marrying Liliana Ramirez of Mexico. Giovani dos Santos Ramirez was born on May 11, 1989 in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico. <\/p>
