Pele inducted into Goal Hall of Fame

Brazil legend Pele has been named as the second inductee into the Goal Hall of Fame.
The forward is widely acknowledged as one of the game's greatest-ever players after a stunning 14-year career with his country that saw him score 77 goals in 92 caps and win the World Cup three times in 1958, 1962 and 1970.

He also broke countless records at club level for Santos where he scored over 600 league goals and won Copa Libertadores and Intercontinental Cup titles twice each before coming out of retirement for a three-year spell with New York Cosmos.

Goal's worldwide team of experts produced a shortlist of 15 names for our first batch of inductees and we asked you, the readers, to pick which legends should be included.
