Kids Today Don't Know about Rivellino!

[@theretroroute]

Would you like to see a "When Was Pelé in his Prime?" video!?

[@empessoa3280]

Of course, please. Bring the King Pelé in his prime. Rivelino tried but couldn't find anything to make fun of Pelé. He looked for some weakness in the King to make a joke. However, he had to settle with reality. And according to Rivelino's own words, the reality was: "Pelé did everything in football very well. He headed well, kicked well with his right leg, easily kicked with his left, dribbled well, passed well, was strong, defended, he was complete. There was no negative point I could mention." So, not having anything to say about the King, Rivelino went up to Pelé himself and said, "Hey, bro, you wanted to be left-handed, didn't you?" Haha. In this video, Rivelino gets emotional when talking about Pelé. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXXFZ52rbdJ5etE The 1970 Brazil team had fantastic stars from midfield to the front in their starting lineup. They were Gerson, Rivelino, Jairzinho, Pelé, and Tostão. In this video, Rivelino reminisces about plays that Pelé made on the field that these stars couldn't see. In other words, Pelé's thinking was different from the other stars. To summarize, Rivelino comments something like this in a part of the video: "I wasn't stupid, Gerson wasn't stupid, Tostão wasn't stupid, yet Pelé was light-years ahead of us."

Rivellino is still an icon in Saudi Arabia. One of the first international stars who made their way into the Saudi League. Many Al Hilal players have anecdotes about his work ethic, wherein they would feel ashamed to be head home after training to see Revillino: A World Champion in the twilight of his career, with nothing left to prove and far more skilled and experienced that anyone in the league, still out practicing free kicks well into the night. His influence (as well as Mario Zagallo's tenure as Saudi Coach from 1981 to 1984) imparted a Brazilian flair to Saudi Arabia's golden age from their 1984 AFC Asian Cup win till their triumphant 1994 World Cup Appearance.

I saw our future bronze medal winners beat Saudi Arabia outside Dallas in the 1/8 final at the Cotton Bowl, 3-1 (and I had my first ever chili cheese ball, homemade...you had to buy one to buy a mug of beer at 5 bucks or whatever, and I juz loved those little spicy things that you nowadays can get at any Burger King or that other famous burger chain...). Afterwards, I changed tshirts with one of a whole group of Saudi college student at a motel. They were all very proud of their team, despite the loss.They probably got even prouder watching us take our first medal (beating Bulgaria, 4-1, in the bronze game) since we lost the 1958 final back home in Stockholm between Sweden and Brazil, who never had won before.

As a kid growing up in the 70s & 80s, the Brazil teams that I started off watching (the 1978 World Cup is the first one I watched) were mesmerising to me. Those players from the late 70s - early 80s were probably my favourite Brazilians ever, and Rivellino is probably top of my list......But others such as Zico, Eder, and Dirceu made that era of Brazil sides the best for me. Historically, they always my second team in the World Cups whenever England got knocked out, these days I don't enjoy watching them at all 😆

I loved watching that 1970 Brazil team live at that fantastic world cup as a child in Primary school. Rivellino was a reserve to Edu who played alongside Pele at Santos. However, Rivellino was the best Dribbler in a team of world-class dribblers and had to be included in that Awesome team. They had 5 Number 10s in Pele, Tostao, Jairzinho, Gerson, and Rivellino, who all sacrificed to become a complete and dominant team. The one-touch passing in that team was off the chart, and they scored 19 goals in 6 games with 7 players scoring at least one goal.

Me and my brother, we watched the 1970 world cup games on the screen of new soviet TV set called Record in Tbilisi, soviet Georgia. We adored and knew every magician in the team of Brasil, - they all were the gods for us. Rivelino still stays a part of me. Real man, real brasilian. Unfortunately, we lost special brasilian football, - no more rivelinos, tostaos, garrinchas, gersons, peles, socrateses, falcaos, zicos... Anyway, thanks a lot to this channel!!!

agree, Brazil dont produce these kind of players anymore. Kaka and Neymar were the last players of that level of quality.

Rivellino : Um dos maiores jogadores de futebol do mundo de todos os tempos

Rivelino was maradona idol.. nuff said.

[@juanaltredo2974]

growing up I idolized 82 brazil, best team Ive ever saw, and for me brazil was the only team capable of playing 10 out of 10, 40 years later I still think the same, the last time I saw a team play close to 10 was sacchi's Milan, which was a 9 out of 10, but 10 is only possible for geniuses like the brazilians

[@ben8080ytb]

About Team 82 I fully agreed.

It seems like if there were a campaign against Pele. There is not a comparison between Pele and any other futbol player. Pele is over all of them.

Roberto Rivelino . He was an excellent footballer, so good that his influence on modern football is arguably more profound today than it was back when Brazil lifted the World Cup in 1970. The player was known for his powerful long-range shots, passing prowess, and attacking creativity. When the referee blew his whistle to begin play and with Irandir still offering up his invocation, Rivellino launched a left-footed effort that whistled by the keeper's ear and straight into the net! Rivellino is often credited with scoring the quickest goal in football history when he allegedly scored a goal straight from the kick-off after seeing the opposing goalie completing pre-match prayers on his knees. Top facts about Rivellino: A notable fact about Rivellino is that he was a prominent member of the Brazilian national team in the 1970s, known for his distinctive mustache, excellent skill, and passing ability. In the United States, he spent the most of his career with Corinthians, where he was a long-time fan favorite. He developed the "flip flap" feint, which was subsequently utilized by several of his fellow countrymen, including Ronaldo and Ronaldinho.
