Shock in the world of sports and football in particular.
At the age of 82, the legend of the past Pele passed away after a long battle with cancer.
The one who was one of the greatest footballers of all time and won, among other things, three World Cups (the only one in history to this day) left behind him an unusual mark, which will remain forever.
The network paid tribute to the star with great pain.
But in world football: at the age of 82, the legend of the past Pele passed away Reuters

Pele has died.
The most divine of footballers and joyful of men.
He played a game only a few chosen ones have come close to.
3 times he lifted the most coveted gold trophy in that beautiful yellow shirt.
He may have left us but he'll always have footballing immortality.
RIP Pele
