Pelé
3 World Cup titles. 12 goals. Only player to win 3. The original World Cup king.
He scored 12 goals in just 14 matches, including a brace in the 1958 final at age 17, making him the tournament's youngest scorer—a record still unbroken. The 1970 Brazilian squad, orchestrated by Pelé, is widely regarded as the greatest international team ever, with his leadership contributing to a 4-1 final victory over Italy. His career total of 77 goals in 92 appearances for Brazil underscores his enduring impact, outperforming the average longevity of top World Cup legends.
