Match overview
In one of the most iconic World Cup finals, Brazil overcame an early Swedish goal to dominate the match with flair and attacking brilliance. Vavá’s brace turned the game, and Pelé’s spectacular double – including a famous lob – sealed Brazil’s historic first World Cup victory.
Trivia
Pelé became the youngest scorer in a World Cup final at 17 years and 249 days. Brazil’s 5-2 win remains the highest scoring final in World Cup history. The team lifted the Jules Rimet trophy wearing their now-iconic yellow jerseys.
