The
Final
In the Final Brazil play
perhaps their best ever football.
They beat Italy 4-1, with
goals by Person, Jairzinho, Pelé and Carlos Alberto. CarIos
Alberto's goal in the final has been voted the best goal of
all time by British football fans.
The team that wins Brazil their third World Cup
championship is not perfect. The defence is weak and the
goalkeeper has some very bad games. But it's the most
exciting and entertaining team ever to play in a World Cup.
There are great physical problems for the players the 1970
World Cup in Mexico. Matches are played at high altitude
and during the hottest part of the day. Despite these
difficulties the 1970 World Cup is perhaps the greatest
football tournament in the history of the game.
