Brazilian soccer sensation Pelé grew up in an extremely poor family. Because of his family's poverty, he had only a sock stuffed with rags for a soccer ball. When he was just fifteen years old, Pelé joined the Santos professional soccer club. In 1958, he made his first appearance on the world stage at the World Cup in Sweden. Pelé scored three goals in the semifinal against France and two more goals in the final against Sweden. Due to Pelé's extraordinary performance on the field, Brazilian President Jânio Quadros declared the soccer player a national treasure. Pelé retired from soccer in 1977 but remained in the public eye thanks to his philanthropic work. As a result of his tireless devotion to the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), for example, he received the 1978 International Peace Award.Directions: Match causes with their effects.(1 point)Put responses in the correct input to answer the question.
