The game in photos.
Obviously, the Italians have decided to slow down in this part... but the referee decides to put the kibosh immediately.
Brazil wander and in the 18th minute, Rivelino crosses for the header of Pelé who relaxes and scores..

It's the beginning of the Brazilian festival...
His name may be Gerson, but he's the one to double the lead for Brazil...
The Italians try things. Heads for example. But they are blown by the Auriverde storm. Boninsegna, however, equalized just before half-time on a gross defensive error from Brazil (37th).
It is the end. Brazil and Pelé may well be jubilant. They walked throughout the Mexican world.
Mexico 70. Winner. BRAZIL.
A very nice cup for captain Carlos Alberto. Third victory for Brazil in the World Cup after 1958 and 1962. As a result, he can even keep it...
The man of the world.
King Pelé carried in triumph. He is the man of this World Cup. His fourth participation in a final phase of a world (1958, 1962, 1966 and 1970) is a masterpiece. He hovers above everyone, allows himself impossible gestures. Simply at the height of its glory. He thus won his third World Cup. In four participations, we are not far from the strike...
