Old fans say that only Maradona can be called the king of world football. Even Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi, the two most famous players in the world, have dominated the game together for years, but they are not the king of the game.
Even "Fat Ro" Ronaldo, people marveled at his skill is not all the world, called him "alien", but he is not the king of the ball, of course, there is no denying that whether Ronaldo or Messi and C Ronaldo, they are the most representative of the outstanding players of their times.
Cruyff, Beckenbauer, Ronaldinho, Gullit, Van Basten, Mateus, Baggio, Romario, even though the stars shine brightly in the galaxy, but they are not the king of the ball, can only say that they are stars.
Fans around the world recognized the king of the ball is: Argentina's Diego. Maradona! No one, truly no one before and no one after! Maradona's technical and footballing influence is far higher than Pele's! [In 2000, FIFA held the "Player of the Century" contest.] The official intention was to give Pele the title.
With espn saying the fans should decide, Fifa was confident enough to hold a vote of the century in which Maradona won overwhelmingly with 53% of the vote, and FIFA later grudgingly gave the award to Maradona.
It is the fans who have the right to decide the winner and Manadona deserves to be the winner of the century. The award ceremony sat Pele, Eusebio, Mateus, Beckenbauer, Basten, and other big men, FIFA President Blazer and UEFA President Platini personally award, even Pele applauded to salute, the title of the king of the ball to their own, unprecedented! Maradona's influence in the world is really huge.
Pele and Maradona are both worthy of the title
The reason why Maradona is great among the public is due to the development of science and technology, the popularization of television in the 1980s let more people know him, while Pele is more just watching reruns after retirement, the influence of The Times is different.
Pele was a great football player, but he was notoriously bad at predicting the outcome of matches. Every World Cup as the king of Pele always cannot help but predict, Pele's authoritative professional background, no one can deny, no one doubts. This is Football live, Maradona vs. England in the '86 World Cup. It's been canonized. Not in Argentina, not in the world. Maradona's true temperament in the hearts of fans does not affect his position as the king of the game.
In terms of football alone, I don't think there is anyone who is first or second, but through the influence of football, Pele and Maradona have undoubtedly reached the status of faith and pillar in their own countries, they are more like totems.
While Ronaldo, Messi and Ciro, etc., more identity is the idol, it is difficult to become a national culture, personally think the word "king of the ball" does not refer to the football itself, but a belief and his influence, in this respect, in addition to the others seem to have not reached this height, so Pele and Maradona are worthy of the king of the ball, no one is strong or weak!
