New York Cosmos 1977 soccer jersey

This is the famous white and green jersey worn by the New York Cosmos during the 1977 season. This was King Pele’s last season as a professional footballer, and the Brazilian played it for the New York club.

Pelé’s last season with the New York Cosmos in 1977 was a significant and memorable period in his illustrious career.

It was not only his final season as a professional footballer but also a pivotal moment for soccer in the United States, as Pelé’s presence helped boost the sport’s popularity across the country.

Here are some key highlights of Pelé’s 1977 season with the New York Cosmos:

  1. NASL Championship Victory: Pelé led the New York Cosmos to win the North American Soccer League (NASL) championship in 1977. The Cosmos defeated the Seattle Sounders 2-1 in the final, with Pelé playing a crucial role in the victory. This championship win was a fitting end to his career.
  2. Farewell Game: Pelé’s final competitive match was on October 1, 1977, in an exhibition match between the New York Cosmos and Santos, his former club. The game was held at Giants Stadium in New Jersey, and it was a symbolic and emotional event. Pelé played one half for each team, marking the end of his legendary career.
  3. Performance: Throughout the 1977 season, Pelé showcased his enduring talent, even at the age of 36. He scored several important goals and provided leadership on the field. His influence extended beyond just his on-field performance; he was a major draw for fans and helped the NASL gain international attention.
  4. Legacy: Pelé’s impact on the New York Cosmos and American soccer in general cannot be overstated. His presence in the NASL attracted other star players to the league, increased media attention, and helped lay the foundation for the growth of soccer in the United States.
