We spent months voting, and at last we have chosen a winner. Winning 53% of the vote over that Carlos Alberto goal, Pelé’s first goal in the 1958 World Cup final against Sweden, Brazil’s third and thus decisive goal in a 5-2 win, is the greatest Seleção goal of all time.
I’ve already said everything I had to say about this goal in the last post, so let’s just take this opportunity to bask in finally having chosen a winner.
If you want to look over the bracket, that’s here; my spreadsheet with all the goals that were nominated is here. I’m thinking of creating a post listing every goal in the bracket later on, but that many videos and GIFs may take a deadly toll upon any web browser that tries to view it, so perhaps it’ll just be a YouTube playlist or something.
For now, let’s use the comments celebrate the greatest goal in the history of the Brazil national team and discuss the start of the 2020/21 club season. With Brazil back in action in October, it won’t be long until I’ll have some actual Seleção news to post, and maybe we’ll soon have a few more worthy goals to talk about.
