On 17/06/1970 in Guadalajara, Mexico, Pelé produced one of the most iconic near-goals in World Cup history. Racing onto a through ball, he let it run past the onrushing goalkeeper without touching it, gliding around the opposite side with breath-taking instinct and imagination. Though his eventual shot rolled narrowly wide, the moment became a symbol of Pelé’s genius — a miss remembered as vividly as many great goals.
