Our seventh random Monday morning image comes from Santos’ February /March 1972 tour of Europe.
In it Pele is seen taking on three defenders of English League Division Two side, Sheffield Wednesday.
By the late 1950s Santos, with Pelé in their ranks, realized they had a method of printing money by sending the squad out on the road. And, for the next decade, they sent them to every corner of the globe.
They triumphed in this match by 2-0, the second of a six-match tour which took in four countries; Belgium, England, Ireland and Italy.
Officially 37,000 were at Hillsborough to watch this game, although it looks from the image like that many may have crammed into Hillsborough’s Spion Kop End alone.
