Comments

In Sweden 1958 Brazil won the first of his world titles. And they did it the big way, with a brilliant team and a 17 year old kid called Pelé

In semifinals they had to face the surprise of the tournament, France, who had in its roster the man who would became the top scorer in one world cup with 13 goals in Sweden 58: Just Fontaine. But it was 5-2 for Brazil.

Then with a convincing 5-2 in the final match, the team lead by Garrincha, Vavá and Pelé defeated the local Sweden and started his dominance in the world cups.
