Brazilian footballing legend Carlos Alberto has been speaking on Manx Radio today.
He captained the 1970 World Cup winning side, which is widely regarded as the best of all time.
The former team mate of Pele was speaking as a sporting ambassador for his home country, following the news it will be hosting the 2014 World Cup.
He says he is quite happy with not being as well known as some of the other players from the 1970 team (audio file attached):
