Pelé | Art Life Football

THE GREATEST SAVE

GORDON

“Only a few years ago, whilst giving an after dinner speech at a function, I turned around to see the footage of that save playing on a screen behind me. It was only then that I realised Pelé was much closer than I ever realised when he headed the ball, nearly at the six yard box. I’d thought he was further out towards the penalty spot…that explains the power behind the ball when it came at me!” Gordon Banks
