Whakarāpopototia te tuhinga:  Kua whakamoemiti a Pele ki te whetu o tana whenua a Neymar hei 'kaitakaro taitamariki tino pai' engari e kii ana kaore ia e whakakapi i a ia hei 'kingi whutupaoro' ahakoa ka taurite ia ki tana rekoata whaainga. Kua 42 ngā whāinga a Neymar mō te ao whānui ahakoa i 23 noa iho ōna tau i te marama kua hipa, ā, ko te rekoata 77 o ngā whiu a Pele kei te whānuitia e ia, ā, kei mua tonu i a ia te roa o tana mahi i te tihi. Engari ko te tohu 74-tau-tau o Brazil e whakaaro ana ahakoa ka taea e te kaitakaro taitamariki te taurite i tana mahi whakamiharo, kaore ano ia kia whakaarohia i roto i te akomanga kotahi me ia. Ko te korero a Pele o Brazil e kii ana ahakoa ka rite a Neymar ki tana rekoata whaainga kaore ia e waiho hei 'kingi' Neymar he 42 nga whaainga a-ao i te 23 noa iho ona tau ka taea e ia te hopu i a Pele mena ka mau tonu tana tere. 'Ki taku whakaaro ko te kingi hou, ko Pele hou, kaore e taea,' i kii ia mo Neymar. 'I kati e toku whaea me toku papa te mīhini. Ki taku whakaaro he kaitākaro pai ia, he kaitākaro taitamariki tino pai, ā, ka riro ia hei whetū nui, kāore he ruarua.' Ka tūtaki a Brazil ki a Wīwī i te pō o te Rāapa i Parīhi, ā, e whakapono ana a Pele ahakoa te whakaiti i a rātau i te whakataetae whakamutunga i runga i te whenua, ka taea e Brazil te whakamatau he kaha ā-ao anō i mua i te Ipu o te Ao 2018 i Rūhia. 'Ki taku whakaaro ko te kingi hou, ko te Pele hou, kaore e taea,' i kii a Pele mo tana kaitakaro taiohi i te roopu motu. Ka ārahi a Neymar i te pōro mai i a Dani Carvajal i a Barcelona e wikitōria ana i a El Clasico ki a Real Madrid i te Rātapu. I te pātai mēnā ka taea e Brazil, e arahina ana e te kaiako matua a Dunga, te wikitōria i te taitara i Rūhia i roto i te toru tau, ka mea a Pele: 'Kei te tumanako ahau. 'Ki taku whakaaro ki a Dunga, he rereke te ahua ki a Felipe (Scolari), he kaha ake te tiaki, engari e whakapono ana ahau ki a Dunga. Ka taea e ia te whakauru ki tētahi kapa motu pai.' Ko te kaiako o Brazil a Dunga kei te tautoko a Pele, me te korero a te kaikawe korero ka taea e ia te wikitoria i te Ipu o te Ao.
I whakamoemiti a Pele ki a Neymar engari e kii ana kaore ia e rite ki tana taonga tuku iho hei tohu o Brazil. E 42 ngā whāinga a Neymar mō te ao whānui, ā, ka taea e ia te eke ki te rekoata 77 a Pele. Engari ahakoa ka mahia e Neymar, ka mea a Pele 'kua katia te mīhini' Ko te kaiwhawhai o mua o Santos i tuku i tana tautoko ki muri i te kaiako o Brazil a Dunga.
