#3 Pele vs Maradona: Who was better?

Who is
Who is the G.O.A.T?

Before the term G.O.A.T- greatest of all time became famous, football fans very divided between Pele and Diego Maradona as to who is the greatest footballer of all time. There is no denying the fact that both the legends have their names all over the history books but when it comes to the number 1 position there can only be one man.

While Pele has 3 world cups to his name, Maradona in many people’s opinion made the biggest World Cup impact when he won the prestigious title in 1986.

The Argentine is one of the greatest dribblers of all time while Pele is one the most lethal goalscorers to ever step on a football field. The legends have retired long ago but the debate on who is the greatest ever goes on and on.

Over the years many polls have been conducted to find out who was the greatest of all time. While some have gone in the favour of Diego Maradona, the others were flashing Pele as the greatest player of all time.

One thing is for sure that this debate will be alive 100 years from now but then as well there will be no conclusion.
